UBAQUE-BERNAL, Juan-Camilo y GARCIA-LINDO, Alfredo. Geostrategic relevance of Gorgona Island: impact on drug trafficking by the Colombian Navy. URVIO [online]. 2025, n.42, pp.126-143. ISSN 1390-4299. https://doi.org/10.17141/urvio.42.2025.6274.
Introduction:
Gorgona Island National Natural Park is the only continental island in the Colombian Pacific, which is the pivotal area that stands out in front of a long coast that concentrates violence and illicit economies of the Colombian State in the middle of the post-conflict, so the problem oscillates in how the National Navy can erect a geostrategic asset on that island to serve as a geopolitical zone against drug trafficking. Objective: we seek to determine the naval and maritime projection of the State against illicit economies, taking as a reference the geostrategy of Gorgona Island as a national and international project of State power. Methodology: under the Delphi methodology, a group of military experts is consolidated to contribute to the construction of judgments in the face of a current, contemporary and highly relevant problem for the national security interest. Conclusions: Gorgona Island is the most important geostrategic asset of continental order in the Pacific, in which the Colombian Navy is the main pioneer.
