Druglords celebrate 50th anniversary of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs


Drug Abuse
Dear Colleagues,
we would like to call your attention to 4 short video messages created by a fictional organization, the Drug Lords International (DLI) to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs. In the videos a Taliban leader, a Mexican drug lord, a Russian mafioso and the girlfiend of an American drug kingpin thank the UN for keeping drugs illegal:

These videos are part of our campaign to raise awareness on the unintended consequences of the global war on drugs. The HCLU, together with other NGOs, calls on the UN and the national governments to to undertake a transparent review of the effectiveness of current drug policies (read more!).

If you agree with this goal please SHARE these videos with your peers/supporters and JOIN our Facebook group!

Best regards,

Peter Sarosi
Drug Policy Program Director
Hungarian Civil Liberties Union
