The Belgian Drug Commissioner Visits MAOC-N

The Belgian Drug Commissioner, Mme Ine Van Wymersch, visited the Centre following Belgiumโ€™s official accession to MAOC-N in July 2024.

During the visit, the Commissioner and her delegation received a comprehensive briefing on the Centreโ€™s activities, as well as the latest developments and trends in maritime drug trafficking. The meeting also provided a valuable opportunity to review Belgiumโ€™s contributions over the past year and to discuss further steps to enhance information exchange and operational coordination among partner countries.

Mme Van Wymersch reaffirmed Belgiumโ€™s strong commitment to supporting a more cohesive and effective response to international drug trafficking and highly organised crime, and confirmed that a Belgian liaison officer for MAOC-N is expected to be appointed in the coming months.
