now some experts would argue that. the 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 community 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 but how are you dealing with it not trying to cut down we have a first of all to stop with the source of instability financial crisis and organized crime is a major act of you 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

owens 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 sample to tunisia and egypt where the two families of the two presidents became reach stuff their money abroad the federal government's ability the failure of mubarak. to me to have stashed abroad between them six billion dollars from how they created the problem because when you go home and in that country to record as mine. it was

a product of all over the production mo of money laundering or sometimes also relationship with organized play when you're now in iraq or torn afghanistan. do you agree with american ambassador eikenberry who says that president karzai is brother is a major afghan opium trade or 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 united nations 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 a dry disastrous picture of afghanistan for example is it true that afghan minister to buy with fifteen million dollars in cash are like other cabinet members have probably seen palm trees already in dubai it's

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

problem is that it's not visible. after the ministers of the fifteen million dollars us with kids you have soft corruption. i call it this way software that we. waste. useless consultants are people who work three hundred thousand euros a year. for doing nothing just to get off. the probable or we strike this. totally useless with. me and this money absorbs a disproportionate amount of the international aide who goes to afghanistan but no one on the speaks about it what operation on the 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 a. patient by the need. of any stand is different. their contribution to the military logistics. they subcontract just for minister to private companies. these companies subsequent to. the military were just a. business of a couple billion dollars to companies who are comprised by warlords sometimes even by the taliban. they go to the security of. boiler trucks or goals from kabul. 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 well now you as an executive director at the office for drug control and crime prevention i know that your policy has almost brought about a collapse in afghans. traits did you directly negotiate with the taliban to kill the poppy crop or i spoke with the taliban leaders the ninety ninety seven 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 got. a change the strategy. i ask of the security council to give them sanctions they got the substance also i submitted them politically from the countries that

surround the for against the fifty percent of. before arriving to russia or before arriving to europe. or the after going to heaven stays in the region both to pakistan. to the six countries borders of i created an alliance of this country to put pressure on the taliban on stopping the cultivation. of this fact or blige at 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 cars that he said that you know and promises 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 if they cooperate with the international community in the plan to provide africa base and alternative livelihood. drug production can be eliminated i'm sure that to the point that with the even of. 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 it's been the bicycle destroyed by the storm that is lasting since ten years plus another twenty years of civil war poverty in afghanistan. more widespread today than it was ten years ago

you have a fifty percent of children while. you would ask why if international community standards offer every year more than five. billion euros. just for civilian aid where this money goes. most of this money is lost eighty percent of this money is simply lost. waste. thank you.
