• Context
In the overall context of the international community's focus on drug related organized
crime, the Romanian Government placed the fight against illicit drug trafficking and use on
its priority list. The adoption of a coordinated and multi-sectorial approach in this field
resulted in the National Anti-Drug Strategy 2005-2012. During 2003-2004, a telling
proof of the Romanian Government's position in this field was, among others, the
establishment of the National Anti-Drug Agency, a specialized body designed to create a
unitary outlook on preventing and countering illicit drug trafficking and use.
The extent of the drug phenomenon, on the background of the growing cross-national
organized crime networks, calls for a new national and international integrated strategy, in
response to this threat.
