V. Performance Analysis
Performance Trends. There were a number of positive trends under the Andean Counterdrug Initiative: hectares sprayed, shipments seized, and licit crop production increased. In addition, host government law enforcement partners have become stronger and more effective, capturing an increasing share of the cocaine produced in the Andean region. Unfortunately, the four-year trend in Afghanistan shows an increase in illicit opium poppy cultivation, despite U.S. Government efforts to discourage planting, eradicate the crop and promote alternative development.
High-level Results. The Department and USAID have demonstrated results toward disrupting criminal organizations through programs that seize cocaine shipments, eradicate poppy crops, and strengthen prosecution of individuals and groups that traffic in persons. In addition, both agencies have had success with programs to strengthen the justice sector and related institutions in other countries, most notably Iraq.
Results Significantly Above or Significantly Below Target. Efforts to strengthen anti-trafficking laws significantly exceeded FY 2006 targets. Forty-one countries took action to strengthen legislation to combat trafficking in persons. No indicator under this Strategic Goal was rated significantly below target.
Key Initiatives And Programs. In FY 2006, Congress appropriated $734.5 million to the Department of State to carry out the Andean Counterdrug Initiative, of which approximately $229 million was earmarked to USAID for alternative development and institution building, including $131 million for assistance to Colombia. An additional $477 million was appropriated in FY 2006 to fund international narcotics and law enforcement activities, including $16 million to fund International Law Enforcement Academies.
