"We are not going to cede an inch of territory in this hemisphere to our enemies or adversaries,� Miller said, adding the US was �using hard power, military power, lethal force, to protect and defend the American homeland�.

Miller further maintained there is no �criminal justice solution� to drug cartels, which he likened to armed groups like al-Qaeda and ISIL (ISIS).

Organised crime, he concluded, �can only be defeated with military power�.
