It is a global illicit trade involving the cultivation, production, distribution and sale of substances subject to laws that prohibit the manufacture of narcotic drugs. The global heroin market plays an important role in drug trafficking. The main corridors of heroin smuggling are the Balkan and northern lines connecting Afghanistan with major markets in the Russian Federation and Western Europe. The Balkan line carries Iran and Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria to the Western European market, usually via Afghanistan, with an annual market value of 20 billion dollars. The northern line extends from Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan (Uzbekistan or Turkmenistan) to Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation. The size of this market is estimated to be 13 billion dollars per year. As international borders become increasingly blurred with globalization, access to drugs is becoming increasingly common globally. Many drugs such as cannabis, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine have an important place in the regional and global trade network of criminal networks. This international trade includes drug growers, manufacturers, couriers, suppliers and dealers. As criminals develop more creative means of transport to conceal illicit drugs, law enforcement is facing challenges in detecting these substances. Drug trafficking is often associated with other forms of crime such as money laundering, corruption or human trafficking, but is also closely linked to terrorist activities. Narco-terrorism is carried out to further the aims of drug traffickers. Assassinations against judges, prosecutors, elected officials or law enforcement may include extortion, kidnapping, bombings and kidnappings, and general disruption of a legitimate government to divert attention from drug operations.
