FAO Quotables

"But being right, even morally right, isn't everything. It is also important to be competent, to be consistent, and to be knowledgeable. It's important for your soldiers and diplomats to speak the language of the people you want to influence. It's important to understand the ethnic and tribal divisions of the place you hope to assist."

General Richardson Senate Testimony (March 2024)

Conclusion: This is a Call to Action! Our adversaries’ malign actions and intent, coupled with the numerous transboundary threats, are a growing challenge – replicating the first and second island chain – to our homeland. USSOUTHCOM, alongside our Allies and partners, stands ready to defend the democratic values, ideals, and institutions that will continue to enable this vibrant region to feed and fuel the world. Through Integrated Deterrence and utilizing all instruments of national power, we will ensure that the safety, security, and prosperity of Latin America and the Caribbean endure for this generation and all those to come.
