Part 14/14:
The landscape of national security at the U.S. borders is becoming increasingly complex. The convergence of terrorism, drug trafficking, and transnational criminal activities underscores the need for a nuanced, well-resourced, and multi-faceted response. As threats evolve, so must the strategies to counter them—prioritizing intelligence-led interdictions, multi-border security policies, and integrated cooperation with neighboring nations like Canada and Mexico.
Only through sustained effort and strategic rethinking can the United States address the vulnerabilities that today’s borderland challenges present and ensure national safety in the years ahead.
