i would argue that. that economy has considerably weakened after they can on the crisis using the mafia have become more powerful in light of that the black economy i mean in some countries yes. but i would not generalize economic craziest was provoked by criminality interests and this is the most important contribution that organized crime gave to the situation created the east ability creating this in the many countries of the word well how are you dealing with it not trying to cut down we have a first of all to stop with the source of instability and financial crisis and organized crime is a major actor in provoking financial crisis all over the word. i was saying many times that water russia was in the ninety's with the mafia going all over exporting russia money. money laundering corruption by zero

and is now or curing in the several countries of the word which countries or you have an. angry. albania was being recently struck by a big financial crisis so you have all these countries that. experience dramatic negative. situation you got to be good samples in tunisia and egypt where the two families of the two presidents became reach stuff their money abroad the family of a mr ben-ami the family of a mubarak. is to me to have stashed abroad between them six billion dollars. now they create a big problem because when you boil them and in the countries to record. that was. overall over the production mo money laundering

or sometimes also relationship with organized play well here you are now a rapper torent to afghanistan. do you agree with american ambassador eikenberry who says that president karzai is brother is a major afghan opium trader but this is a very old story i know but no one ever gives an answer and that this is a very old story when i was in the missions this guy was already you know. major traffic so it's true of course it is true but this is just one. out of many problems what about you work so closely with afghanistan that's why i'm asking revelations for example in diplomatic cables to u.s. diplomatic cables it dry disastrous picture in afghanistan for example is it true that afghan minister arrive to buy with fifteen million dollars in cash or like other cabinet members have probably seen palm trees already in dubai it's

a true absolutely true. but this is just one the piece of the truth. you might report that you will find many figures and one important figure is this that. forty billion dollars that lived in afghanistan for the civilian aid only eight of these forty went through the afghan government so the corruption of the african go a month is big so what does the rest go to the government officials know that there is international corruption so they're all intertwined yes we choose never to address international newspapers particularly west of newspapers never speak about this big piece of the cake they speak all the time about options which is there of course but this is most likely. the biggest corruption. over the steel of african people eighty percent over the international aid. the

problem is that it's not visible. after ministers of the fifty million dollars us with kids you have a soft good option. i call it soft. waste. useless consultants and people who work three hundred thousand euros a year. for doing nothing just to. see. the problem would be surely or we strike so suddenly this. totally useless with. me and these money absorbs a disproportionate amount of the international aid who goes to afghanistan but no one speaks about it but operation on a bigger scale for instance and they tell us anti-drug. policy in afghanistan has

had any impact. in two thousand and one up to now while it may two thousand to. six operation. the contribution of. these different. their contribution to corruption is the military logistic. they subcontract to just people from any to private companies. these companies subsequent to. the military will just be. business of a couple billion dollars to companies who are comprised by world roads sometimes even by the talk about. they go to the security of. boiler trucks goes from kabul to anywhere in afghanistan in exchange of huge amount of money and the money that is taken from the military nato military logistic is

more calculated to takes from drug trafficking. now you as an executive director at the office for drug control and crime prevention i know that your policies almost brought about a collapse in afghan public streets did you directly negotiate with the taliban to kill the poppy crop or are you spoke with the taliban leaders in one thousand nine hundred seventy when they just conquered. the country about the limitation. of poppy cultivation in exchange for international aid for the after the peace. they did not abide by the agreement we've got. and i change the strategy. i ask the security council to get the sanctions they got. also i repeated them politically from the countries that surround the focused on the fifty percent of.

before arriving to russia or before arriving to europe. after going to have a stake in the region both to pakistan. to the six countries borders of i created an alliance of these countries to put pressure on the taliban on stopping the cultivation. of this fact or blige a certain point the taliban would be to the production in the year two thousand and one there was almost zero production of afghanistan this is important because. i showed that it is possible to eliminate the drug cultivation of i'm not going to stand it is not something that is beyond our possibilities for example in a recent interview with russia today his recent interview with karzai he said that you know in provinces that we are in control of there is no proper protection where we're not in control we you know we can't be responsible. it is true that.

cooperate with the international community plan to provide africa a base an alternative livelihood. drug production can be eliminated i'm sure that to the point that with even off. we between russia and the e.u. we are going to launch a plan to eliminate production in five years you're talking then your resume details a life long fight corruption organized crime and drug trade it seems like afghanistan is like a perfect storm in that respect yes yes we're going to be in the basically destroyed by the storm the last existing years plus another twenty years of civil war. in afghanistan. more widespread today than it was ten years ago you

have a fifty percent of children. you would ask why if international community standards offer every year more than five. billion euros. just for c. you get eight where does money go with. most of this money is lost eighty percent take out rate of this money is simply lost. of course but also the kind of international waste what they call soft corruption that. most of the money that the european and american taxpayers send it off going to start. thank you very much. thank you for your.

will be a completely different match compared with tonight and we have a chance to go through. them all over in spain shocker came from a goal down two and a one one draw with a lens here given the home side bullied on seventeen minutes of the german side hit back in the second half was the former real madrid striker raul forward leveling the tie just after the hour mark in the process overtaking people in zagi to become the highest score ever with the compositions. already said yesterday there would have liked to play gets in the team this is three d. and that gives me luck and i was lucky to schoolgirl with the most important thing is that the team has worked whirl and we go back home in a good mood and in three weeks time we will play a complicated game. has great players we would have to play very well if we want to make it to the next day. and all big spending manage to city get

the bulls games we played the last season but it's just an idea so because many players have changed in indian friends in the game or for them percy's is a lot. so but. the less is on here if you see if you saw the game. in the play in brazil and always we try to attack four four four respect for the game in at in s.l. save the play in getting the same so the way i thought the last season it would be very very good both games it would be the same indices the odds are against ass north over in their participation in the competition the londoners end of clashes underdogs but then again how any team in the world take ambassador moments or not be wrong to spay versus saying that violence and being as men sit second in english premier league would be seeking revenge for last year's six loss to the same opponents at the quarter final stage. i think everybody expects an exciting

game because those two teams who. are and that's what we want to achieve two more is to be free food to those a few to make sure they're true dominate the game or to pass the ball that we have the possession of the ball are we capable to do that we have a very good chance to beat. meanwhile shakhtar donetsk have arrived in rome for their last sixteen first league champions league clash with roma ukrainian champions of one hundred twelve mansions against italian teams in the european cup competitions and none of them away from home worse reading for them is a mantra pause from the last time the two sides met in two thousand and six of them or their loss in rome or lack of match practice in one of help chuck short eva. the problem is that we played the last game in december and eight games burger we played a great match the amount of all of the. you lose the physical preparation but you
