US names India, China, Pakistan among drug transit, illicit drug-producing nations for FY27

The United States has designated India, China, and Pakistan as major drug producing or transit countries. This presidential determination covers twenty-three nations for fiscal year twenty twenty-seven. Afghanistan, Bolivia, Burma, and Colombia were separately identified for failing counternarcotics obligations. Inclusion on the list considers geographic and economic factors for drug production and transport. This designation does not necessarily reflect current government efforts or US cooperation.
