As wars, migration, and other dynamics re-shape politics and security in the Middle East and Europe, Turkey has been a bridge country in many ways. But one challenge that has been understudied is the illegal drug trade in the country. It is a complex and multidimensional issue that poses public safety, national security, and public health threats and risks—and one that I explore in detail in a new report for the Brookings project Improving Global Drug Policy: Comparative Perspectives Beyond UNGASS. For decades, Turkey has grappled with serious challenges related to the trade and use of illicit drugs. Drug cultivation itself subsided in the s, when poppy production was effectively licensed for the production of medical opiates, and illegal poppy cultivation and the diversion of opiates into the illegal trade. Today, illegal drug production today in Turkey is limited to cannabis, cultivated mainly for domestic consumption, and small amounts of captagon. A variety of drugs are trafficked into and through Turkey each year, including heroin, cocaine, synthetic cannabis bonsai , methamphetamine, and captagon a type of amphetamine. Turkish drug trafficking groups have gained considerable power, global reach, and market control across Europe particularly in heroin trafficking. Turkey is thus a key vector of the smuggling route that carries Afghan heroin to the West through the Balkans. Finally, drug trafficking networks in Turkey have diversified into and facilitated other forms of smuggling and illicit economies in Turkey, including the smuggling of Syrians to Western countries. Turkish drug trafficking groups are now involved in human smuggling, cigarette smuggling, and antiquities trafficking. Beyond criminality and corruption, drug trafficking in Turkey is a matter of national security. Even in , drug traffickers arrested in Turkey said it was impossible to cross the border without paying the PKK, and that only traffickers connected to the group could cross without paying. Equally troubling, drug consumption is on the rise in Turkey, with a corresponding increase in the number of addicts. While cannabis and bonsai a synthetic form of cannabis are most frequently consumed, heroin use is also rising. Despite inadequate data, there is a widespread popular sense in Turkey, shared by Turkish law enforcement agencies, that drug use is reaching serious levels. However, the Turkish government has paid inadequate attention to drug use prevention and treatment, both of which are vastly underfunded and underdeveloped, while drug seizures and crackdowns on small-scale drug peddling have been overemphasized. Tens of thousands of people have been charged with drug trafficking for possession and sale of cannabis, for example. Harm reduction policies and even basic research and analysis, meanwhile, have been lacking. Philip H. Turkish drug policies remain mostly ineffective in responding to drug use, preventing drug trafficking in Turkey, and mitigating the threats it poses. As I detail in my new report , Turkish drug policies today are not effective, comprehensive, or integrated. This is all the more unfortunate since between and , the criminal justice system, police, and drug policies in Turkey registered many improvements. After decades of political turmoil, weak governance capacity, and political interference in law enforcement, Turkish police and law enforcement agencies experienced significant modernization, institutional development, and robust growth in capacities during that decade. These changes also resulted in more effective policies toward drug trafficking. Unfortunately, the improvements in policy design and capacity were eviscerated after December , when the Turkish government purged the police forces and the judicial system following revelations of extensive corruption in the top levels of the Turkish government. Since then, whenever police operations have revealed corruption within the government, law enforcement and judiciary personnel have been fired. Hard as it is—given the current political context in Turkey and the dismantling of rule of law there—Turkey needs to adopt fundamental reforms in its fight against the drug trade and its efforts to limit the negative effects of drug use. It should expand resources for and focus on harm reduction and demand reduction. Turkey should also strengthen the capacity and independence of its law enforcement and judiciary through improved laws, investigative procedures, and bolstered capacities. The government should improve anti-money-laundering and anti-corruption capacities, regional counternarcotics cooperation, border security, and the vetting of migrants and refugees in Turkey for connections to terrorism and organized crime.

Timothy Snyder: 'Americans are killing themselves with their misunderstanding of freedom'. At tribute for cyclist killed in Paris: 'What happened to Paul isn't an isolated case'. Moldova's EU vote looks too close to call, president blames 'foreign forces'. What is Hezbollah, and why has it been in conflict with Israel for the past 40 years? COP 'The need to reform the global financial architecture has become even clearer'. Gigantic animals come to life again at the 'Giants' exhibition in Toulouse. Tom Wesselmann, the pop artist long in Warhol's shadow, enters the spotlight. Philippe Charlier, exhibition curator: 'The zombie is a very relevant figure today'. Cardboard pieces obscured the windows, allowing only the dim glow of a bulb to illuminate the coffee table. In this small space, the air was heavy with the combined odors of dampness and tobacco while the glowing wires of the electric heater struggled to warm the room. Sitting cross-legged on the cold floor, Pelin all names have been changed placed the flame of a lighter under the aluminum foil and brought the small straw she held between her lips close to it. She took a puff, coughed a little and cleared her throat before mechanically resuming the ritual. With her red-dyed hair and her eyes highlighted with kohl, the pale-skinned young woman wore only a tight-fitting, low-cut t-shirt. For a few weeks now, she has been living in this little shack in the deprived Altindag district of Ankara, alongside her fellow hardship-stricken friends, Kemal and Utku. Thirty years separate them and nothing suggested that their paths would one day cross. But heroin brought them together. I have to admit, it's somewhat true,' said Kemal in a hoarse voice. His emaciated body is barely visible under his loose shirt while his gaunt face shows no expression. He has been using heroin daily for eight years, several times a day. He was arrested a few years ago and sent to 'Amatem,' the state rehabilitation center. The stay, he admitted, gave him temporary relief, but the substitution drugs weren't enough. In just a few months, he knew all the tricks to appear 'clean' in medical tests. But he risks going to prison. Article of the Turkish Penal Code provides for two to five years imprisonment for drug users. On the other side of the street, Dogu and his friend Osman, with their military haircuts and black down jackets, were drinking tea on the terrace of a small canteen. So I stopped, and now I take 'amca' \[literally, 'uncle,' slang for methamphetamine\],' explained Dogu, with a blank look on his face. It's very expensive and I lost a molar because of it,' he said, pointing to the back of his jaw. Since this 'poor man's cocaine' has arrived in the neighborhood, it has become part of everyday life in many households. Necmi Erdogan, professor of political science at the Middle East Technical University, who works on extreme poverty in Ankara's northern districts, estimates that 'one household in four' is affected by addiction to a psychotropic substance by one or more of its members.
