Jul 04, 2013
SANTIAGO, Chile, CMC - The Secretary General of the Organization of American States (OAS), José Miguel Insulza, says that the drug problem affects the “pillars of development” in Latin America and Caribbean.
In presenting a report here on the drug problem in the region, to the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC), Insulza underscored what he described as a fact that “violence is what most worries the population in terms of drugs.
“All stages of the production process tend to be illegal, and drug-related offences generate other offences and then crimes. Drug trafficking produces many more victims than those generated through consumption alone,” he added.
