a fifteen year high. bonuses early to help the wall street lead to higher taxes next year. while the battle against drugs in afghanistan is intensifying as a new player joins the fight essential drugs quartet has been found in moscow with russia pakistan and all pledging full support to kabul on the sidelines of the meeting to the afghan drug chief and the discussion is coming your way next. i wanted to have million russians are addicted to gun harrowing afghanistan produces ninety percent of the drug a u.n. resolution describes the flow from this central asian country as a threat to international peace and stability here with me today is the afghan counter anacortes minister mr that ahmed us money thank you very much minister for being with me today. thank you i'm glad to talk to you. today the ne

a while there more than drugs is about sixty five billion dollars that's five times bigger than the country's national budget who is behind this industry who takes the most benefit from it. we do it. out of the afghanistan itself as a victim of that evil 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 komang province is one of those there is no doubt that afghanistan was responsible for ninety percent of the world's opium production or opium is grown in provinces that like security they are the most troubled provinces there are international terrorist groups there that are very active we have already managed

to cleanse twenty provinces of all they are now ruled by law we don't have any 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. 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 afghanistan only produces opium but you need other terms or precursors to turn it into her own up to thirteen

hundred tons afghanistan does not produce them where they come from obviously there is 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 the up in 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 landowners involved in drug production to get poor peasants to give up opium farming the government has devised an aid program encouraging them to grow other crops such as wheat but we need international support all also important in the strategy is the reduction 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 are. 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 town are 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 i can say specifically that there are certain problems 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 so 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 were used to grow opium poppy that figure has been reduced to one hundred twenty three thousand. and for a forty seven percent drop the progress is apparent if we destroy the opium fields this will result in under the angry children of those farmers will 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 a huge demand which in turn as 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 grew poppies before the problem came to the country together with the war it's the result of the impoverishment brought on by drought on the one hand and by war on the other on the poppy has a very short time to harvest that's why they chose that way you've mentioned turn to factory culture 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 happened.

fighting drugs is very complicated done 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 has also been provided to poor peasants regional corp has of course been very helpful that 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 so this is the huge problem that there's no security in those regions. so ken the country is donating their money to get it stand sure that they smart it will go to what it is supposed to go. about what you've mentioned donated money disappearing i should say of all the money allocated towards fighting 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 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 helps afghanistan a great deal but still this help is not enough and should be expanded besides i think that the efficiency and capabilities of anti drug police in afghanistan should be increased the capabilities of grown recently but it's not enough similarly drug police and are having the same problems now and that country needs help to solve our joint efforts could bring tangible results yes investment of going to start very claims you are associated with the drug mafia in afghanistan and that he bought support for elimination to rate of eighty fifteen thousand dollars

a vote what do you say to these accusations. i have not heard carl i can barely 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 in the fight against narcotics i have always worked in a transparent way clearly and precisely there have been no accusations against me and my work is transparent for the first time in history the russian diplomat is heading the united nations office on drugs and crime what difference do you think will his appointment make to the war on afghan trott's the fluid. the united nations drugs and crime office is an independent organization within the u.n. it's up to him to lead it wait and see how efficient his work will be we hope to work together and with good results. u.s. general says that president karzai is the missing link in the war on drugs in

afghanistan that his inaction has allowed herin flourish as his accountant caltex minister would have to say to that. president karzai has been responsible in fulfilling his duties and the results are there twenty provinces i told you earlier have been cleansed of opium poppy some progress has been made in other areas president karzai after two to these problems is a very responsible i don't agree with what general mcneill had to say. according to the agreements reached before twenty fourteen the afghans will assume responsibility for security in the country i am sure when they've assumed one hundred 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 and narcotic drugs is not a matter of one or two days it's a very long process this fight will continue for the international efforts are needed to have bases abroad destroyed afghanistan will be fighting for the hearts 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. wings' special old french an eccentric women's. ready for. one. became their. food and those people were urging them previously. i've.

seventy points by japan while they also suffered back to back defeats to argentina's second string you know the last former new zealand camps in sean fitzpatrick who is in moscow to promote his country's business interests so the russians could pull off a surprise or two to get to the world cup as one players you know fantastic if it. is the first time that they have qualified. so they should enjoy that. and as i said in the press conference i need to go there with the expectations they can when they play america. and they should be targeting that as the game in two thousand and seven the portugal's in the georges of the world think of georgia you know what they. believe and now we think george is going to go this world cup and could potentially knock over one of the top five countries in the war on my georgia who have many players playing in the french league none of the russian team plying their trade abroad there locally doesn't offer the same competitive level in

comparison to the big european championships and fitzpatrick sounds this will need to be the next stand in order to help russia's development obviously the next world cup. so we have. a name and. we have to qualify but we need to have more experience playing maybe i was playing in europe new zealand or even even in the struggle just to boost that experience and not getting potentially here first all my months to go to the world cup gets underway there's plenty of work for coaches steve diamond and henry poole who is working with banks to do the russians plan to play a number of practice munches including in-store journey to get themselves ready. to help with their preparations will be going to new zealand where we'll be playing games against canterbury inter an arche following that will return and play a competition with europe's tier two nations including home and away matches with georgia with a home game being played in sochi. russia are going to have their work cut out in

a tough group which also contains australia ireland italy and the usa very unlikely to make it through to be excluded stage the most important thing is a bit of qualified and his experience going up against the world's best will be very beneficial for the future development of rugby in the country richard bumpily darty. looking forward to it already now will end with american football because the n.f.l. playoffs are not far away even though every week brings new heroes after thirteen of them there are two plays that probably stand that the most has dimitrios in pov explaining why tom brady and michael vick are the top contenders for the m.v.p. award. more often than not throughout the n.f.l. is history the most valuable player award has gone to quarterbacks and it's only where the q.b. is the most important position on the field he controls the afghans and he can say team is only as good as their quarterback peyton manning has been the poster boy

lately winning the league record for in the piece in the last ten years but he's enjoyed the planet the indianapolis colts are struggling to even grab a hold of their division with manning not exactly playing great down the stretch meanwhile tom brady and the new england patriots are the hottest team in the n.f.l. right now on monday the pats made sure there are alone on top of the f.c. with this big tackler beat down of divisional virals new york jets brady to a four four touchdowns and three hundred twenty six yards and that forty five to three ran for his and a fellow record twenty six straight regular season home win. the three time super bowl champ has thrown twenty seven touchdown passes with just four interceptions this season and if the past get the home field advantage throughout the playoffs it could be an easy ride into the super bowl for them. meanwhile back as a totally different breed of player the thirty year old has always been known for his unbelievable athleticism and ability 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 and 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 an expensive or is the emotional aspect of his story after rising high with atlanta early in his career he fell down hard and almost turned into public enemy number one overnight after being found guilty of dog fighting but after serving time the seems to have a new found focus easily beat kevin cup for the starting job and the eagles are only going as far as he takes them meteorites above our team. it is that is old school for the moment. wealthy british style. is not on.
