## DRUG PROBLEMS

**The drug problem has grown into a regional and international crime problem, not just a national problem. **** **

**  ****Globalization**
**  ****High profit margin**
**  ****Increase in drug addiction**
**  ****Terrorist activities**
**  ****Changes in the political situation in various  countries **

## GLOBAL EVALUATION

**United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime**** (UNODC)****  **
**World Drug Report**

**1/3 of $1 Trillion US Dollars is derived from illegal income which is approximately $321 Billion US.**
**The source is from drug trafficking.**

## OPIATES

**OPIATES**

**Notes:**
Afghanistan is overwhelmingly the largest producer of opiates in the world
If all of the opium produced in Afghanistan was converted to heroin it would produce almost 950 tons of heroin
Over 90% of the heroin in Europe is from Southwest Asia
Also supplies most of the heroin consumed in Russia, Southwest Asia and Central Asia
Smaller amounts to North America 
Production in Southeast Asia is still a concern as Myanmar remains the second largest producer of opiates in the world
Southeast Asian opiates are mostly consumed within Southeast Asia with small amounts in North America
Surveys show that demand for heroin may have stabilized in the United States and Europe
Where are the large amounts of Afghan opiates going?
China? Australia?  
Increased consumption along transit routes
Stockpiling?

**Notes:**
The increase in Afghan production largely accounted for the record levels of potential global opium production in 2006 and 2007
Global production 2006: 6,610 mt
Global production 2007: 8,800 mt respectively
Afghanistan is now virtually the sole supplier at 93% of global production.

**Notes:**
ONE HECTARE IS EQUAL TO 2.4 ACRES.
Trends in opium poppy cultivation in Afghanistan have been on an upward trajectory since the early 1990s, accelerating quickly after the fall of the Taliban government and their 2001 ban on cultivation
Opium poppy cultivation has increased on average by 34 percent per annum in the post-Taliban era.
Since 2006 the security situation has deteriorated, especially in south and southeastern Afghanistan. 
Lack of security leads to increased opium poppy cultivation due to deceased licit economic opportunities and heavy pressure by drug traffickers and Anti Government Elements.
The majority (70 percent or 133,545 ha) of cultivation in 2007 took place in the five southern provinces of Afghanistan: Helmand, Kandahar, Uruzgan, Day Kundi, and Zabul.
13 provinces were poppy free in 2007.

**2000-2006**

**Notes:**
Myanmar remains the second largest opiate producer in the world after Afghanistan
Opium cultivation in South East Asia takes place mainly in Lao PDR, Myanmar and a very small amount in Thailand.
Huge decrease from 2000 is astounding and serves as an important step toward the goal of eliminating the cultivation of illicit crops worldwide.
The largest reduction in absolute terms has taken place in Myanmar where opium poppy cultivation decreased by 83% in nine years from 130,300 ha in 1998 to only 21,500 ha in 2006.
According to UNODC, Lao PDR and Thailand have reduced cultivation to such an extent that opium production is negligible and no longer finds its way to international markets.

## OPIUM POPPY CULTIVATION IN COLOMBIA & MEXICO

**- 41%**

**Notes:**
Significant opium poppy cultivation in Colombia did not emerge until the early 1990s.
Colombia is one of the smaller opium cultivating countries and its contribution the world opium production is declining. 
Opium poppy in Colombia is mainly being cultivated on mountain sides in the south-west of the country.
Opium poppy cultivation in Mexico has reached a strategic equilibrium:
The size of the crop has remained between 3,300 and 5,500 ha for 10 out of the past 13 years
Crop has shifted to the northern areas in Mexico
Cultivation in Mexico is unlikely to change dramatically barring unexpected decrease in eradication effort or weather extremes

**2000-2006**

**Notes:**
Opium poppy cultivation in South East Asia takes place mainly on steep hills with poor soil and no irrigation facilities.
Opium yields are much lower than in Afghanistan where the crop is often cultivated on good soil and irrigated land. 
In 2007, opium yields were estimated at 6 kg/ha in Laos, 16.6 kg/ha in Myanmar and 15.6 kg/ha in Thailand.
South East Asia's Golden Triangle, which produced 33% of the world opium production in 1998, now produces only about 5%.

**Notes:**
Opiates from Colombia and Mexico dominate the market in the United States.
Colombian heroin is smuggled via couriers and maritime conveyance to the US
Mexican “Black Tar” heroin continues to be the predominant form of heroin available in the USA west of the Mississippi
The heroin trade in Mexico is highly fragmented.
Mexican heroin is predominately smuggled from the cultivation and processing areas of Mexico to the southwest border of the United States via:
privately owned vehicles
commercial vehicles (tractor-trailers & buses)
Individual couriers (on their person or in their luggage)

## COCA AND COCAINE

**COCA AND COCAINE**

**Notes:**
European market growing for cocaine and very attractive to cocaine trafficking groups
Strength of Euro over Dollar   
Africa is used as a storage location and transit point for cocaine from South America to Europe.
Colombian traffickers store cocaine along and off the west coast of Africa in the Canary Islands, Cape Verde, Guinea, and Guinea Bissau, where they have established strong ties with West African criminal networks. 
Reports indicate increased amounts of cocaine going to Asia – China, Australia, Thailand.
Smuggled by air couriers, parcel post and maritime conveyance
March 2006: 142 kilograms seized in China;
In 2007, U.S. law enforcement sources reported a reduced availability of cocaine at the wholesale level affecting retail prices and purities
37 U.S. cities have reported various levels of decreased cocaine availability.
Data showed average price per pure gram of cocaine in the US increased by 44% between January and September of 2007
Data showed a 15% reduction in the average purity of cocaine

**Notes:**
Colombia remains the largest cultivator of coca and producer of cocaine
Overall, despite the increases and decreases observed in recent years, coca cultivation in Colombia has proven to be relatively
stable at around 80,000 hectares since 2003.
Coca cultivation in the Andean region has been relatively stable since 2002

**Notes:**
2/3 of the cocaine produced in the source zone is for US markets, 1/3 to the rest of the world
But the amount to non US markets does appear to be increasing
Go-fast boats, maritime vessels, maritime containers, private aircraft, and low-profile vessels (such as submarines)
Venezuela is a country of concern since the reports of cocaine shipments leaving Venezuela has increased dramatically
Big increase in flights from Venezuela to the Dominican Republic and Haiti
Also flying to West Africa
West Africa is a key transit zone for cocaine destined for Europe
Cocaine seizures in the traditional gateway countries of Spain and Portugal have decerased
Cocaine seizures on the “back side” of Europe appear to be increasing
February 2006: Turkey 42 kg
December 2006: Sweden 1360 kg
January 2007: Poland 120 kg, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia 486 kg
February 2008: Ukraine 39 kg, Slovakia 163 kg
Increased reports of cocaine to Asia
Containers to China
Couriers to Thailand and other countries in Southeast Asia

**Notes:**
Mexico continues to be the primary transit route for cocaine available in the United States
In October 2007, Mexican authorities seized over 23 tons of cocaine in the port city of Manzanillo
Seized from cargo containers
Follows the March 2007 seizure of almost 20 tons of cocaine from the M/V Gatun off the coast of Panama
Mexican trafficking groups are now dealing with Bolivian, Ecuadorian, and Peruvian groups to obtain cocaine – not just Colombians.

Traffickers are constantly looking into new and innovative ways to evade law enforcement efforts
Also called low-profile vessels
Number of incidents identified by law enforcement has increased
So far only known to have used to ship cocaine to US market
Can’t go fully underwater
Believed to be built in Colombia 
Newest versions can hold up to 12 tons of cocaine and travel up to 12 knots
November 2006: Seizure of 3.5 MT cocaine 90 miles southwest of Costa Rica
August 2007: Incident 300 miles southwest of the Mexico-Guatemala Border
March 2008: Incident 375 nautical miles west of the Galapagos Islands

## RECORD HASHISH SEIZURE

**In June 2008, a joint operation led to the seizure and destruction of approximately 262 tons of hashish.  The hashish was stockpiled in several underground warehouses near Spin Boldak, Afghanistan.**

**Notes:**
70% of global supply is hash is from Morocco
Hashish is primarily consumed in Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Canada.
Hashish is the most commonly used drug in Afghanistan with an estimated 520,000 users.
According to UNODC, approximately 70,000 ha of cannabis was cultivated in Afghanistan in 2007
50,000 ha in 2006
30,000 ha in 2005. 
Cultivation has also spread geographically. 
In 2007, cannabis was cultivated in 18 out of 32 Afghan provinces. 
Record seizure in Afghanistan
Joint operation with Afghan forces, Coalition Forces and DEA
Search warrants were executed on five locations in Spin Boldak, located in Kandahar Province. 
Total of 262 tons hashish seized and destroyed
Twelve suspects were also arrested 

## AMPHETAMINE-TYPE SIMULANTS

**Notes:**
The alarming increases in the production of Amphetamine Type Stimulants (ATS) throughout the 1990s seem to have leveled off
Largest production areas for methamphetamine continue to be in South-East Asia, including Myanmar, China and the Philippines, and in North America.
Amphetamine production continues to be primarily located in Europe, notably in the Netherlands and Poland, followed by the Baltic region and Belgium. 
Amphetamine production also takes place in North America (notably in the USA) and in South-East Asia.
Trend: increased percentage of seizures of amphetamine and falling proportions of methamphetamine
Due to better controls of ephedrine and pseudo-ephedrine?

## MDMA PRODUCTION

- The Netherlands remains a significant producer of MDMA
- “Mega-Labs” in South East Asia are  capable of producing both MDMA and crystal methamphetamine.
- Asian Organized Crime groups play an important role in the global MDMA trade.
- Canada is now the primary source country for MDMA in the United States.

**Notes:**
According to UNODC, the number of ecstasy labs dismantled fell by 40 per cent in 2005 to just 52 labs, 20 per cent less than in 2000 and Seizures of ecstasy precursors also fell by 40 per cent in 2005. 
In parallel, global ecstasy seizures fell by one third in 2005. All of this suggests that global ecstasy production, after strong increases in the 1990s, is now shrinking, primarily because of production falling in Europe.
Production in several other parts of the world, in contrast, continues expanding.
Canada
Southeast Asia

## METHAMPHETAMINE TRAFFICKING IN MEXICO

**METHAMPHETAMINE TRAFFICKING IN MEXICO**

- In 2007, decreased availability in the United States.
- Starting in 2008, no pseudo-ephedrine can be legally imported into Mexico.
- Precursor Chemicals now flowing through Central America.

**Lab seized in Mexico in December 2007**

**Notes:**
Increased production in Mexico due to strict restrictions on precursor chemicals in the US
Over the last four years methamphetamine seizures on the southwest border of the US increased 77%
In 2007, data showed that the average price per pure gram of methamphetamine in the United States has increased by 73% from Jan-Sept 2007. 
This increase in price has been accompanied by 31 percent reduction in the purity of meth. 
Shortage in US due to cooperation between the Government in the US and Mexico and aggressive Mexican counter-narcotics efforts
Investigative reporting shows that precursor smuggling groups have shifted to routes through Central America

## METHAMPHETAMINE IN SOUTH EAST ASIA

**METHAMPHETAMINE IN SOUTH EAST ASIA**

- Synthetic drugs are the primary threat in South East Asia.
- Increasing rates of abuse and production throughout South East Asia.

**Notes:**
Production throughout Southeast Asia
Armed ethnic militias in Burma continue to produce and traffic large quantities of drugs
Several of these groups are diversifying from heroin production to methamphetamine production
Mega labs capable of producing hundreds of thousands of pills have been found across Southeast Asia: China, Thailand, the Philippines,
Myanmar, Taiwan Province of China, the Republic of Korea, Cambodia, Hong Kong SAR of China, Indonesia, Vietnam, and Malaysia.
DTOs linked to China, North America and Europe
A lab in Malaysia was recently seized where a Mexican chemist was arrested

## PRECURSOR CHEMICALS

- Trafficking groups quickly adapt in response to tighter legal controls.
- Countries in Asia, Africa and Middle East used for transit.
*	****How will new restrictions impact drug trafficking groups?***

## ACETIC ANHYDRIDE (AA) 

**ACETIC ANHYDRIDE (AA)**** **

**No licit production or legal use in Afghanistan**
**Produced in at least 18 countries around the world**
**  ****China, Russia, India, Germany, and  South Korea **
**Smuggled to Afghanistan through neighboring countries **
**  ****Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, China, Pakistan, and Iran**
**Smuggled via maritime vessels in containerized cargo and overland in cargo trucks**

## ACETIC ANHYDRIDE (AA) 

- Price of AA in Afghanistan has reportedly increased over the past year.
- Notable seizures:
- In November 2007 10 tons of AA in Russia.
- In March 2007 14 tons of AA traveling to Pakistan from South Korea.

**Notes:**
On Nov 1, 2007, FSKN and FSB agents seized 10 tons AA and arrested 3 persons in Dzerzhinsk (town where only AA-producing factory in Russia is located).  AA was to be shipped by truck via Tajikistan to Afghanistan.  Shipment was to be disguised as a solvent used in plastic production and mosquito repellant
On March 23, 2008 approximately 14 tons of suspected acetic anhydride (AA) were seized at the Port of Karachi, Pakistan.  The AA was found in a large quantity of blue plastic barrels on pallets in a shipping container that had arrived from South Korea with a cover load of hydrogen peroxide. 
Prices increasing

## MONEY LAUNDERING

- *Trade-based money laundering linking organizations in South America, the Middle East and Asia.
- *Exploiting technology and developing new methods.
- Online and Mobile telephone payment system
- Virtual worlds

- *Bulk cash smuggling continues unabated.
