A CSIS Americas Program event with Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom was quoted by the Miami Herald, "Bush Pledges Support for Guatemala."
WASHINGTON -- With his Guatemalan counterpart looking on, President Bush Monday urged Congress to approve a $550 million package of anti-drug trafficking assistance for Mexico and Central America.
He has also taken a tough line against drug traffickers, telling a gathering at the Center for Strategic and International Studies that he was embarked on a ''frontal assault'' against the drug trade and cooperating with Mexico and the United States more.
