12:32 am
country's national budget who is behind this industry who takes the most benefit from it and instead we do it one day out of the afghanistan itself as a victim of that evil the rest goes to other parties involved in trafficking afghanistan as a country with nine hundred sixty thousand drug addicts which is why we say afghanistan as a victim of drugs it's a great evil for our country smugglers make huge profits we can say for certain and prove that international terrorists are active in the part of afghanistan where opium is grown and drugs are manufactured these are the most problematic areas of our country. provinces one of those where there is no doubt that afghanistan was responsible for ninety percent of the world's opium production opium is grown in provinces the lack security and they are the most trouble provinces there are international terrorist groups there that are very active we have already managed to cleanse twenty provinces of opium they are now ruled by law we don't have any
12:33 am
problems with those provinces do minister say that the international terrorists mistaken the most benefit from it right that's correct. let us judge fairly afghanistan as a major manufacturer of opium responsible for ninety percent of it on the other hand it's obvious that the poppy is grown in the most restless areas this proves that there is a link to international terrorist organizations on the taliban studies indicate of the taliban receives one hundred twenty five million dollars from drug exports therefore we can say international terrorists the taliban and organized crime groups are involved those involved can be divided into two categories those inside the country and foreign groups with certain connections with the international terrorists some crime groups encourage opium farming after. only produces opium which you made out of hers or precursors to turn it into her own up to thirteen hundred tons afghanistan does not produce them where they come from obviously
12:34 am
there's an international network trafficking these precursors that's why we say that the drug problem is not localized in afghanistan it's international when we say that millions of russians die from drugs nine hundred sixty thousand afghans are addicted to. afghanistan's efforts alone will not be enough afghans consumed five percent of the drugs while the other ninety five percent are exported that's why we insist on international cooperation in the struggle against drug trafficking what is your strategy for fighting trade. the drug problem has a domestic and an international side according to the strategy we've developed to fight opium exports we're trying to help our peasants financially so that they don't have to grow opium poppies most afghan peasants eighty percent of them are extremely poor they have very little land so they grow the poppy to make a living the other twenty percent are major landowners who rent out their land plots for opium farming and encourage it out of this group thirteen percent are
12:35 am
landowners involved in drug production to get poor peasants to give up opium a farming the government has devised on a program encouraging them to grow other crops such as wheat but we need international support all also important in the strategy is their adoption of demand for drugs we also intend to take measures to increase the efficiency of our law enforcement structures which help fight the scourge. but what concrete steps i empowered to take more of them which i think the counter-narcotics ministry persists on regional cooperation now joint bilateral operations against drug dealers are carried out in the country along with iran and pakistan what operations were to decus tyler also in our plans in the past four years thousands of tons of narcotic drugs have been seized talking about concrete steps and international support russia advocates burning their poppy crop why cannot this be done. before the it will be before i can say specifically that there are certain problems
12:36 am
in the areas where the afghan government can do something against the opium poppy it has done so twenty provinces have been cleansed of opium plantations however in a provinces war is going on with international coalition forces present the afghan army and the afghan national police force certain problems are there and there are areas where the afghan government is not in control in this respect earlier one hundred ninety seven thousand hectares of land or used to grow opium poppy that figure has been reduced to one hundred twenty three thousand or forty seven percent drop the progress is apparent if we destroy the opium fields this would result in our anger at the angry children of those farmers would take revenge and join the taliban these problems did exist are existing and will exist therefore if we've managed to cut opium production by forty five percent it's only one aspect as a result of this reduction opium prices have soared by two hundred percent which by itself proves there is
12:37 am
a huge demand which in turn is an incentive for the farmers to grow poppies destroying opium fields doesn't help it's not the solution at the same time i'm not saying i'm in favor of poor peasants growing opium poppy but it is a problem that our society has to face poor people have the right to live and to earn a living they must be offered an alternative and they must be helped so they could give up growing poppies this way we can solve the problem. afghans themselves never grow poppies before the problem came to the country together with the war it's the result of the impoverishment brought on by droughts on the one hand and by war and the other on the poppy has a very short time to harvest that's why they chose that way and you've mentioned terms of agriculture the e.u. and us donate about half a billion dollars to in terms of agriculture in afghanistan each year but many believe they smile disappears into a corrupt political system can you explain how this happens.
12:38 am
fighting drugs is very complicated and it requires a very comprehensive approach it's obvious that efforts taken so far by the government of afghanistan have brought some results in twenty provinces the poppy has not grown any more also five thousand drug dealers are now in jail or helpers also been provided to poor peasants regional corp has of course been very helpful with us before we see the provinces where the war still rages on where there is no security account for ninety eight percent of all poppy and opium production and so this is the huge problem that there is no security in those regions so can the country is donating their money to get it stand sure that they smile it will go to what it is supposed to go. about what you mentioned donated money disappearing i should say that of all the money allocated towards fighting the drug crimes the afghan government spends twenty to thirty percent with the remaining seventy percent spent by the donors themselves they have their own projects which
12:39 am
they found themselves so if you're talking about international cooperation international efforts in fighting drugs so who are going to stan's key partners in this war. the biggest donors the usa and also britain how does afghanistan a great deal but still this help is not enough and should be expanded besides i think that the efficiency and. capabilities of our drug police in afghanistan should be increased the capabilities of grown recently but it's not enough similarly drug police into are having the same problems now and that country needs help too so that joint efforts could bring tangible results besides the level of drug confiscation in russia is very low only four percent of all drugs imported are confiscated and. in central asia this figure is around five percent these figures in total so that there is great demand for drugs and the tone and encourages peasants to grow poppy and produce opium. yes investment of going to start very

claims you are associated with the drug mafia in afghanistan and that he bought support for elimination of the rate of eighty fifteen thousand dollars a vote what do you say to these accusations. i have not heard carl icahn very say anything about me i'm not sure he may have said anything of this kind because he is very pleased with my work and we have closely cooperated with each other he has always encouraged us and has taken an active part of the fight against narcotics i have always worked in a transparent way clearly and precisely the have been no accusations against me i don't know where it has been published i have to find and readers but i'm sure that karl i can very most not observe anything out of me because we have been in close cooperation is well aware of everything we've been doing my work is transparent for the first time in history the russian diplomat has had in the united nations office on drugs and crime what difference do you think will his appointment make to the

order to charge of their own country the efficiency of their work will grow at the same time i can assure you of the struggle against international terrorism a narcotic drugs is not a matter of one or two days it's a very long process this fight will continue for that international efforts are needed to have bases abroad destroyed afghanistan will be fighting for the arts thank you very much minister for your time we wish your country and afghan people peace and prosperity in the nearest future thank you very much. we use special old french and accents requote meant. they are ready for free flight. taking off one ear and

his unbelievable athleticism and i've been lucky to make the play with his legs instead of his left arm. but this season big has been great not only outside the pocket showing the tremendous improvement in his passing game while the past have a better record than the philadelphia eagles who are tied with the giants for the lead in the n.f.c. east what plays and expect a verse is the emotional aspect of his story which after rising high with the planet early in his career he fell down hard and almost turned into probably kind of one overnight after being found guilty of duck fighting but after serving time the seems to have a newfound focus easily beat having called for the starting job and the eagles are only going as far as he takes them meteorites above. finally there is only nine months to go until the rugby world cup gets underway in new zealand russia will be there for the first time in our correspondent richard paul three caught up with one
