Official Descriptions of Aid to Chile
Document: Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs Program and Budget Guide, Fiscal Year 2010
Program: International Narcotics Control Economic Aid
"FY 2010 Program
Justice Sector Reform
Funding in FY 2010 will support Chilean efforts to investigate and prosecute transnational crimes, including terrorist financing and terrorist/anarchist activity, money laundering, cyber crimes, and intellectual property violations. Funds will be used to provide training by U.S. experts to police, prosecutors, and judges. The training will assist Chilean efforts to stop transnational crimes within the context of the new adversarial justice system and pending legislation that could significantly change intellectual property rights and bank secrecy regulations."

Program: International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement
FY 2010 Program
Interdiction
Funding in FY 2010 will support Chilean efforts to combat drug trafficking in the northern region of the country, which includes the major free trade zone in Iquique and the strategically important cities of Calama and Arica near the borders with Peru and Bolivia. Funds will be used to provide equipment and training to law enforcement agencies such as the Carabineros, Investigative Police, Customs, and Public Prosecutor. The program will focus on disrupting major trafficking organizations, border enforcement, and port security.
Document: Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs Program and Budget Guide, Fiscal Year 2010
Program: International Narcotics Control Economic Aid
Program Objectives and Performance Indicators
Deepen judicial reform in Chile and encourage alternative resolution methods to support the new system.
- Citizens' understanding of their legal rights is expanded and prosecutorial and investigative capabilities of criminal justice officials are strengthened.
Program Justification
... The judicial reform process that changed the country's criminal justice system from inquisitorial to adversarial continues to pose significant challenges. Investigating and prosecuting complex crimes such as money laundering, terrorist finance, intellectual property right violations remains difficult.
Program Accomplishments
...USG-funded experts, including judges and community organizers, have participated in seminars to train Chilean officials in the use of "drug courts." These and related programs have led to greater public trust in the new justice system, and cases are being resolved faster.
Document: Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs Program and Budget Guide, Fiscal Year 2010
Program: International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement
Program Objectives and Performance Indicators
Deepen and expand cooperation among law enforcement entities within Chile and between Chile and its regional partners to reduce Chile’s role as a transshipment country for narcotics from the Andean region to the U.S.
- Improved interdiction, investigative, and prosecutorial capabilities of Chilean law enforcement officials.
- Improved ability to interdict illegal shipments of precursor chemicals, including ephedrine.
Strengthen Chile's ability to disrupt complex criminal organizations, including international drug traffickers and money launderers, through specialized training for police and prosecutors.
- Chile has enhanced ability to monitor its well-developed financial system.
- Money laundering convictions are increased.
Program Justification
Chile is a transshipment point for illegal narcotics, including Andean cocaine and heroin destined for the United States and Europe. Chile is a source of essential chemicals used in cocaine processing in Peru, Colombia, and Bolivia, and recent seizures show that it is a source for the chemical precursor ephedrine. The country has a growing internal cocaine and marijuana consumption problem. Chile has a well-developed but secretive banking system, two free trade zones, and long borders with Bolivia, Argentina, and Peru. This makes the country an attractive destination for money laundering, terrorist financing, and trade in contraband and pirated goods. DEA has recently increased its staffing in Chile to focus on chemical precursors and intelligence analysis....
Program Accomplishments
The USG enjoys a close relationship with Chilean law enforcement agencies, and our cooperation has produced tangible results. Drug seizures have increased significantly and Chile has established a plan to counter drug traffickers in the northern region of the country. In 2008, Chilean authorities seized more than 3.2 metric tons of cocaine base representing, a 32 percent increase from 2006. Chile launched "Plan Vigia" to respond to an increase in drug shipments near the border with Bolivia. Chile also assumed the Presidency of the Organization of American States Anti-Drug Commission (OAS/ICISD), a leadership position that underscores the country's active engagement in the effort to combat narcotics. Joint investigations with USG officials led to the 2009 arrest of Mexican nationals seeking to ship ephedrine from Chile to Mexico. USG support has trained the Carabineros (uniformed police) and PDI (investigative police) in undercover operations. Chilean authorities have also prosecuted their first money laundering case not tied to drug trafficking. This represents a significant accomplishment as Chile seeks to pursue more complex crimes. ...

Fuerzas Aliadas PANAMAX is an annual exercise tailored to the defense of the Panama Canal against transnational threats.

Document: 2007 End-Use Monitoring Report
Program: International Narcotics Control and Law Enforcement
Procedures
Post is able to take advantage of official travel for spot-checking on an ad hoc basis. However, on-site inspections are infrequent, as the small size of the program does not merit resource dedication to monitoring trips. Post supplements personal inspections with information obtained from Chilean contacts about the use and status of equipment. Experience has shown the Chileans to be reliable in their reporting.
Status
The host government agencies participating in INL-funded projects are the Chilean Investigative Police (PICH), Aduanas (Chilean Customs), the Chilean Uniformed Police (Carabineros), and DIRECTEMAR (Coast Guard). The equipment is deployed in both rural and metropolitan areas in counternarcotics and counter transnational crime operations.
Communications Equipment
The Police have one radio scanner, one base station (fair condition), four walkie-talkies, and two hand-held high radios (fair condition). Customs has one base station in fair condition.
The Carabineros has four telephone systems in five locations. Three are in good condition; one is in fair condition. The Carabineros also has seven telephone message systems in five locations. They are in fair to good condition.
Computers
The Carabineros has 32 computers and one server in 17 locations. All are in good condition. Carabineros has three laptops and two printers in Santiago in good condition.
In March 2007, Interpol received 9 Intel P4 computers, 9 Acer LCD monitors, 2 printers, 1 Netgear Prosafe Switch, and 1 Netgear Smart Switch. These computers are being used for the purpose intended and are in good working condition. They constitute 50% of Interpol Santiago's IT infrastructure.
In 2006, INL donated the following for the PICH-Santiago Narcotics Unit: one Systemax Mission small office server; 20 Systemax Intel P4 computer hard drives (with warranties and data security protection); 21 Magavision MV177V 17" monitors; 15 Microsoft Windows server user license agreements; six Microsoft 3PK OEM Office basic packages; two Microsoft 1PK OEM Office basic packages; two Hewlett Packard HP Laserjet 1320n network printers; two Hewlett Packard HP color Laserjet 3600n printers; one Netgear FS108P Prosafe Switch; and one Netgear GS724T 513MB USB flash drive.
The equipment is excellent working condition. It was installed in the PICH-Santiago Narcotics Office in December 2006. PICH-Narcotics uses this equipment daily and has expressed gratitude for the resulting increased productivity for their police unit.
In 2007, the following items were purchased for the Task Force Africa: 20 workstations, one Systemax Small Office server, 20 Intel PC's, 21 monitors, two HP Laser Jet Network printers, and two HP color Laser Jet printers. The equipment was delivered to PICH-Africa in June and December respectively and is operational. The equipment was purchased to equip the PICH's anti-Narcotics Beigade in Africa, Chile. This brigade houses primarily PICH-Africa, but also includes representatives from other Chilean Government agencies such as Customs and Coast Guard and a task force.
A workstation and chair were purchased for the PICH Transnational Crime Unit in December 2007. Computers are also being purchased and will be delivered early 2008.
Miscellaneous Equipment
In 2007, the following equipment was purchased for the Task Force Africa: 2 conference tables, 45 chairs, 9 desks/modular units, 14 cabinets, 5 benches/sofas, 2 waste basket, 1 coffee table, 1 TV rack, 1 data show equipment and screen and tripod.
The following equipment was purchased for the Carabineros in 2007: two 42" plasma televisions, 1 computer with a 17" monitor, 2 television supports, 4 desktop computers, 1 server, and one 17" monitor for the server. The Carabineros, with the help of LEGATT, intends to set up a crisis operational command center with the equipment.
Impact
The equipment has been used efficiently by the various agencies. Its benefits extend beyond providing direct impact on Chilean law enforcement efforts. INL funding also increases cooperation between Chilean and post law enforcement communities. The task force has become so effective over the year that Peruvian smugglers have begun to move cocaine to Bolivia in order to bring it to Chile from Bolivia thereby avoiding the Chile/Peru border.
Post continues to review counternarcotics equipment needs and procurement capabilities of the police force to determine what further material assistance is warranted. This increase in cocaine flow from Bolivia is of concern. Post would like to support Chilean efforts to develop increased security along the Chile/Bolivia border with future INL funding. Chilean police has also made a request for equipment for units working on IPR issues, cybercrime (including child pornography) and money laundering.
Program Changes
Chilean police have made a request for pole cameras to monitor suspected areas of urban drug activity, and for mobile radar that would enable them to detect go-fast boats or desert movement as they guard their northern border from the trafficking of drugs and people.
