US to share tech with Chile to curb crime
SANTIAGO, Chile -- The United States will deploy biometric technologies in partnership with Chile to control migration and disrupt criminal networks, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said Wednesday during a visit to the South American nation.
"This arrangement is going to serve as a bridge to help Chile and the United States work towards bringing criminals to justice and knowing who is in our countries perpetuating crimes," Noem said while signing the preliminary agreement with Chile's Security Minister Luis Cordero and Justice Minister Jaime Gajardo.
The plan comes as the Trump administration seeks to bolster regional cooperation in its clampdown against transnational criminal groups, including Tren de Aragua, a Venezuelan gang designate
