Türkiye ve Avrupa’ya Yönelik Yeni Bir Tehdit Olarak Afganistan Bağlantılı Uyuşturucu Trafiği

Year 2023, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 52 - 90, 28.12.2023

Abstract

Afganistan, yakın tarihi çeşitli biçimlerde etkileyen bir ülke olarak ön plana çıkmaya devam etmektedir. Afganistan’ın son yirmi yıllık tarihine göz atıldığında, 11 Eylül 2001 terör saldırıları ve terör bağlantıları, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nin Afganistan’daki savaşı ve geri çekilişi, Taliban’ın düşüşü ve tekrar iktidara gelişi, ülkede var olan sosyo ekonomik ve kültürel problemler, Afganların yakın uzak demeden bütün coğrafyaları etkileyen düzensiz göç hareketleri gibi gelişmeler dünya gündeminde yer alan olaylar olarak hemen akıllara gelmektedir. Bütün bu olayların yanı sıra, Afganistan’da yine küresel etkileri olan bir diğer büyük problem uyuşturucu konusudur. Bilindiği üzere dünyada yasadışı afyon üretiminin yüzde 80’e yakını bu ülkede gerçekleştirilmektedir. Bununla birlikte Afganistan’da yakın zamanda beliren kimyasal bazlı diğer uyuşturucu türlerinin üretiminin de hızlı bir biçimde arttığı görülmektedir. Çalışmada öncelikli olarak, Afganistan’daki yasadışı afyon üretimi ve ticaretinin yakın tarihi ele alınmış ve bu doğrultuda, yeni gelişmekte olan Afgan uyuşturucu trafiğinin uluslararası boyutu ve varabileceği noktalar göz önüne konulmaya çalışılmıştır.

Afghanistan-Related Drug Traffic as a New Threat to Turkey and Europe

Year 2023, Volume: 2 Issue: 1, 52 - 90, 28.12.2023

Abstract

Today, Afghanistan continues to come to the fore as a country that continues to affect recent world history in different ways. When only the last 20 years of Afghanistan are examined, 9/11 attacks and terrorist connections, America's war in Afghanistan and its withdrawal, the fall of the Taliban and its rise to power again, the huge socio-economic and cultural problems that exist in the country, Irregular migration movements of Afghans affecting other geographies come to mind as events on the world agenda. In addition to all these events, another huge problem with global effects in Afghanistan is the drug production and trade. As it is known, nearly 80 percent of the illegal opium production in the world is carried out in this country. However, it is seen that the production of another drug called methamphetamine, which has recently appeared in Afghanistan, has increased rapidly. In the study, firstly, the recent history of illegal opium production and trade in Afghanistan was discussed and in this direction, the international dimension of the newly developing Afghan drug trade and the points it could reach were tried to be considered.
