Colombia, France, and the United States deploy vessels in the Caribbean Sea to strengthen interoperability

The training sessions took place over four days, based on NATO standards.

With precision, discipline, and naval power, we participated in binational exercises alongside the French Marine Nationale 🇫🇷, strengthening maritime security in the Colombian Caribbean 🇨🇴. The ARC frigate “Almirante Padilla” sailed alongside the Jeanne d’Arc Task Group “Mistral” and the “Surcouf,” demonstrating that our Navy is a benchmark in interoperability, tactics, and experience.

ARMY MILITARY OPERATIONS

Our Marines, Soldiers, and Airmen are deployed throughout the department of Chocó, especially in the Baudó subregion.

The criminal actions of the members of the ELN, this Organized Armed Group seek to intimidate the civilian population, disrupt free movement, and cause shortages in the region. More than 3,600 members of the Seventh Division of the National Army, the Pacific Naval Force, and the 5th Air Combat Command are deployed throughout the department to protect the civilian population living in this territory, especially in the Baudó riverside area.We hold these criminal organizations responsible for any damage that disrupts the peace and security of the people of Chocó.

Colombian Marines during TW25​

04.29.2025​

TETERON BAY, Trinidad and Tobago - Caribbean military forces, law enforcement agencies and humanitarian organizations are working together during TRADEWINDS 25 (TW25), a multinational exercise designed to strengthen disaster response and security coordination across the region.

A major component of the exercise is the Caribbean Task Force (CTF), a training track where command teams from Caribbean Community (CARICOM) nations engage in scenario-based drills, strategic planning and leadership development. These exercises enhance interoperability and improve preparedness for regional threats ranging from natural disasters to armed conflict.

“The relationship I built with my mentor has allowed me to support the training of up-and-coming leaders and provide operations continuity by implementing lessons learned,” said Lt. Cmdr. Lystra Bastian of the Royal Bahamas Defence Force, who serves as the TW25 J6 commander. “It’s not just an opportunity to build expertise, but an opportunity to build relationships.”
The CTF was first incorporated into TRADEWINDS in 2014 and has since evolved into a key element of the region’s defense response under CARICOM. Canadian subject-matter experts have supported the CTF since 2017, offering mentorship and training models that foster cooperation across nations.

Each year, participants use realistic simulations to build crisis response skills. The exercises draw on actual case studies and challenge teams to make decisions about resource management, conflict resolution, and joint intelligence operations.
