Interpol's 30th European regional conference in Tbilisi, Georgia will focus on a threat assessment for the European region. Interpol Secretary General, Ronald K. Noble is expected to warn delegates of the traditional crime areas such as drugs and trafficking in human beings that pose undiminished threats in the region. He will also alert them to the dangers of more recent crime phenomena in the areas of corruption and cyber crime, and the global threat of counterfeiting and fraud which accompanies the introduction of the Euro as hard currency.
Partnerships are a vital strategy for success.
Interpol's Europe comprises 45 countries and includes several which serve as transit routes for drug trafficking and illegal immigration rackets.
