What kind of message does that send to drug lords in Afghanistan?

0

I’m sure the prosecutors and judges who had to put on their cases and obtain those hard-fought convictions under very trying circumstances were probably disappointed, but, you know, Afghanistan’s a sovereign country, and they have a president who has the right under the constitution to take those steps. President Karzai must have felt that he had reason to do so, but I’m sure it was disappointing to the folks involved in the prosecution. Q: We know about poppy production there and how that feeds so much of the drug industry in other parts of the world. Can you bring judicial reform to a country that is so steeped in that kind of corruption? It’s a tough situation, but the Afghans themselves are law-abiding folks by and large. They want a country that’s based on the rule of law. And they understand that the drug trade doesn’t just hurt other countries. It’s hurting Afghanistan. We’ve seen a spike in addiction in Afghanistan. There’s a serious drug addiction problem just over the border
