Mexico has made "important achievements" in fighting drugs under the current administration, Mexican President Felipe Calderon said on Sunday.

Some 43 tons of cocaine have been seized in the littorals of the country since his government took office in December 2006, Calderon said at the welcoming ceremony in Acapulco Port for the arrival of School Vessel "Cuauhtemoc" after its international tour.

"The trafficking of that dangerous drug" was controlled, Calderon said.

The achievements were attributed to the Mexican Navy's efforts, which "has been the foundation of combating the enemies (drug traffickers) of Mexico with more efficiency."
