The correct answer is letter A: Ronald Reagan.

The War on Drugs was an initiative from President Ronald Reagan, led by the U.S. federal government that consisted in drug prohibition, military aid and military intervention in order to reduce the illegal drug trade in the United States.

It was primarily "Ronald Reagan" who increased the country's efforts in the "War on Drugs", since he was not one to follow his own advice and offer the youth of the country programs that would ween them off of drug use.
