The objective is clear: to have a greater presence in Rosario to combat the drug trafficking that dominates the city with a rapid escalation of violence.

We are not going to let up. We are not going to let Rosario be a land of narcoterrorists. “We are going to fight every day with all our might so that this does not happen.”
