Ventiquattro arresti per traffico di stupefacenti. Questo il bilancio dell’operazione Last Generation condotta dei carabinieri nelle province di Catanzaro, Reggio Calabria e Milano. Sono stati impiegati oltre 200 militari della compagnia di Soverato (Catanzaro) e del comando provinciale di Catanzaro. L’operazione ha permesso di smantellare una pericolosa organizzazione dedita al traffico di droga nel Soveratese e nelle piazze di spaccio della Lombardia, con epicentro a Guardavalle. I reati contestati sono quelli di associazione finalizzata al traffico di stupefacenti aggravata dal metodo mafioso, dall’ingente quantitativo e dall’avere indotto minorenni a commettere il reato, nonché di detenzione illegale di armi da fuoco, furti e altro.

Es la ruta de la droga de la que usted nunca escuchó hablar: una operación de miles de millones dólares que involucra a la cocaína y las metanfetaminas que se empacan en los cascos de veleros en EE.UU. y América Latina y se transportan a Australia, a través de las islas del Pacífico Sur, que muy a menudo se las considera como destinos vacacionales, más que centros de distribución de estupefacientes.

En los últimos cinco años, hubo una explosión en la cantidad de embarcaciones, que a veces transportan más de una tonelada de cocaína, atravesando el océano Pacífico para abastecer el hábito de consumo de drogas creciente y muy lucrativo en Australia.

Certain European states are in cahoots with drug cartels, Iran’s Judiciary chief said, deploring the West for inaction on the war against narcotics whose burden falls on Iran.

In an address to a Monday conference in Tehran marking the International Day against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, Hojjatoleslam Ebrahim Raeisi lashed out at the Western states for their failure to take practical action against the production of drugs.

“We claim that Europeans and the US do not fulfill their duties in the fight against drugs and do not play their role in this war, and this is provable,” he added.

The Iranian Judiciary chief also noted that the production of drugs in Afghanistan, world’s largest producer of opiates, is taking place under supervision of the Westerners.

He then pointed to a series of international drug cartels involved in organized drug trafficking, saying it has become clear to whom they are linked.

Apart from the fact that Europe has failed in its duty to the war on drugs, Iran believes that some of the European states are involved in drug production and trafficking, Raeisi added.

The Iranian official also called for efforts to let the world know that the responsibility for drug-related crimes lies with the profit-making organizations which are connected to big powers.

He further criticized the United Nations for failing to force the courtiers to share the burden of war on drugs, saying the UN must do something more than verbal gratitude and ceremonial gifts for Iran.

Iran shares a 900-kilometer border with Afghanistan and has been used as a main conduit for smuggling Afghan drugs to narcotics kingpins in Europe.

Despite high economic and human costs, the Islamic Republic has been actively fighting drug-trafficking over the past decades.

The country has spent more than $700 million on sealing its borders and preventing the transit of narcotics destined for European, Arab and Central Asian countries.
