  1. Many countries lack efficient capacities for effectively countering and preventing the trafficking and use of illicit drugs. The work of UNODC in the field of institutional capacity-building and assistance for States to improve the skills and knowledge of national authorities in all areas of drug control is essential and deserves our full support. Germany is concerned about violent activities by illegal armed groups and criminals involved in the drug trade, in some cases linked to terrorist activities. These threaten local populations as well as security forces; they undermine State authority; they also threaten to undermine some of our joint efforts in building peace, such as in Afghanistan, Guinea-Bissau and Sierra Leone.

  2. I would like to join others in thanking Mr. Fedotov for his insightful briefing. We recognize the important role and the work performed by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) for the development of effective strategies and measures to reduce the detrimental impact of illicit drugs on the health, social well-being and safety of people across the world. The briefing has clearly shown that organized crime and drug trafficking can have a major impact on regional and international peace and security. We share the global concern about the detrimental impact that drug abuse and drug trafficking have on the political, social and economic stability of societies, particularly in West Africa, but also in parts of America, Central Asia and Europe. Countering these drug-related threats remains one of the main objectives of UNODC.
