just from your point of view what do you think i mean how far would settle this problems ever go first i welcome you to afghanistan there's no doubt the theory of plantation song with narcotic crops has increased since military hostilities started on afghanistan i believe that the war was the root cause that forced afghan people to turn to poppy growing this is the source of most problems afghanistan faces today the afghan government has pledged to put an end to all be in production in the country if we study the history of drug production how it spread in afghanistan what degree it has reached it we learned little to nine hundred fifteen hector's a prominent contain poppy crops put thanks to the efforts of the democratic afghan government which i consider to be quite successful we've managed to cut the area to one hundred thirty had tears this year the government intends to further reduce the earlier song with poppies so as to fully meet its commitment to destroy poppy cultivation but we will be unable to solve this problem once and for all and long

we will need people support in other words we should not be focused only on the question of poppy cultivation that's an international problem and not just the problem of growing poppies in afghanistan for example we realize that poppies are cultivated in afghanistan on but then the question arises in what way about thirteen hundred tons of chemical substances necessary for processing or the human to her own illegally get into afghanistan there are countries under exam. the the world consumes ninety five percent of afghan produced opium by contraband oil opium consumption and afghanistan accounts for just five percent this proves that not only afghanistan but the whole world should declare war on these narcotic substances. over the past six years the afghan government has managed to reduce areas of poppy crops to forty three percent during the us we almost stopped selling poppies and seven afghan provinces more than twenty of the provinces are fighting

to destroy them i would also add that we've worked out a plan to put an end to sowing poppies and several provinces this year as part of efforts to implement this plan we intend to further a juicy areas of poppy fields it doesn't mean that we don't have difficulty as others said earlier i'm against drugs it's not just a problem for afghanistan and this is an international problem the world community to realize that's it took on allies the situation in afghanistan with a name to organize a campaign against drugs in this region elsewhere in the world we consume five percent of drugs and where it is the ninety five percent goal for example if we manage to cut internal of the land what should be done to decrease the constantly growing world demand for drugs therefore we believe that any success in fighting is evil is closely linked to international cooperation and support afghanistan doesn't have enough ability to treat drug addicts we can help only one percent of all drug

related patients as the drugs minister i admit that i faced many tasks i realize that i have responsibilities with regard to the people of afghanistan under the mounts were compensation to afghan landlords who give up particles of asian chemical imports or an even bigger problem not the total profits from the drugs trade amounts to about sixty five billion dollars a year all of them go to the international drugs. local drug smugglers barely get three percent from dots on and view of the expenses for political debate. afghanistan we see the problems from the street or a miserable international drug mafia gets the bulk of the profits. there is one concept that so connects somehow the presence of international forces. with the drug trade. well there's a talk that there's a possible withdrawal of the interest that's all sort of got to start with next year. do you think after the withdrawal of the situations of drug fighting

way proved. if we look at these things objectively we'll see that the situation after the war has improved however the afghans don't feel not a great deal of prepared to work has to be done it's necessary to train the afghan police and army to fight drug trafficking and i would be on to the post-war period but i assume that everything they can do in this area brings positive results every day i can claim that in recent years the anti drugs ministry has achieved concrete positive results we've detained money drug traffickers this year and many more than in previous years the professional training or afghan police and army personnel has also improved if things continue this way i'm sure there are twenty fourteen we will be able to control the entire territorial afghanistan i would like to emphasize one thing under no circumstances is the afghan government going to wage a war against its own people we operate on

a model of struggle against terrorism extremism and drugs we see that in our condition foreign aid has turned out to be pernicious for money afghans a considerable part of the country's infrastructure has been destroyed it should be other those sharp change in the specialization of agriculture is closely linked to foreign factors perhaps you can see it for yourself the drugs production flourished in the period of the most intense of military hostilities which led to serious destruction security as well as loan order as a result of the illegal sowing of poppy crops increased that's why we count on the cooperation of the world community in the struggle against the savior and we won't lay the blame solely on afghans the afghans are people who want to live in compliance with the law but today they want to use the benefits of peace in the first place. we are now facing the most terrible consequences of the war against terror we witness the destruction all some of the took place near a military base in pakistan all this should be subject to

a more profound nonsense such issues shouldn't be tackled superficially we've got. a couple of months back there was a joint operation as between the russian forces for a dinner there because of that authorises of fighting the you think such operations could be multiple or could be more in future as. joint operations especially from the russian forces jigger so a bit of what we do with this moment we're trying to strengthen our law enforcement primarily the afghan police which is predominantly in charge of destroying poppy crops as i said earlier i assume that we've made great progress in this field but more importantly we exchanged reconnaissance information we discussed this question with russia already to build up cooperation with moscow in this field. several mechanisms not applying them and sure inspection information this information could

help us cut smugglers in and outside afghanistan and this we rely on help from countries which have experience in this field and your excellency thank you very much for being with us from russia today had a wish afghanistan the prosperity and peace and there are two parts there's one thankfully or it's the. question is that so much that there is hardly anybody was it a real serious derail his meeting with yes the greek government survives a lot of confidence as it's crushing debt or deal continues unabated. i was just thinking about my future before the foreign companies scare me i dreamed

peter to ski that you may have already been crowned world champion but the task of trying to surf all the way from tallinn to helsinki presented its own problems such as having to navigate the sea currents and trying to make sure the wind did not blow him too far of course he had plenty of supports even his parents were present having made the short journey from their home in st petersburg where the conditions also look perfect and the temperature hovering around the twenty five degree mark however unlike the previous couple of days there was this thing like a wind tunnel in her weather conditions the wind is a lie still hold the bill for give you when you so try to make it through no problems. are you sure to be fine for sure almost like. it was evident from his first attempt to trying to cross the eighty kilometer distance was going to be a tall order as beer was just not enough wind he just didn't run ten minutes in the

water before having to return to shore so would we give it a try today and the winner was the beginning of it in the end of draft so it's not enough for my biggest it's not really comfortable to go so i mean it's still possible for this other this runs so we're going to way to kill today but i think it's going to be really good so way turl where there is a really nice focus from the from the other side the wind but it's really nice tired to finance oh wait one more day and we had another try p.t. was philosophical it's not even he has the power to control the elements and his attempt to become the first russian to cross the gulf of finland but have to be put on hold for a few more days again or it might be one of the best client service in the war but even pages had to admit defeat today due to lack of wind which has made his attempts to try and cross from finland almost impossible how they will keep on trying and over the next few days hopefully he'll be able to make it all the way from tolland to helsinki richard reid r.t.
