The document discusses drug trafficking through The Gambia. It notes that while The Gambia is primarily a transit point for drugs traveling from South America to Europe, its strategic location and weak law enforcement make it appealing to traffickers. Several case studies are presented, including the seizure of 3 tons of cocaine hidden in an industrial salt shipment in 2021. The document outlines the triangular nature of trafficking between South America, The Gambia as a transit point, and Europe as the destination market. It also reviews The Gambia's relevant legal frameworks around maritime security and drug control.
