UNODC Executive Director Yury Fedotov has paid an official visit to Moscow to meet with high-level Russian officials to discuss the challenges in dealing with the interrelated threats of drugs and crime.
Speaking ahead of his meetings in the Russian capital, Mr. Fedotov noted that sustained efforts by all partners in addressing contemporary challenges and threats are required: The Russian Federation has an important geo-political role to play in dealing with some of today’s most critical issues such as the trafficking of illicit drugs.
