"World Drug Report 2007" sets out the most comprehensive global assessment of the current illicit drug situation, including trends in the global drugs market as well as in the four main markets for opium/heroin, cocaine, cannabis, and amphetamine-type stimulants (ATS). The 2007 report also examines the relationship between transnational organised crime and drug trafficking as well as giving information on drug production, prices, and consumption.The 2007 report highlights signs of long-term containment of the world problem, building on the assessment of last year, with trends indicating overall stability in all four key drug markets in relation to cultivation, production, and consumption. However, this overall trend masks contrasting regional situations. For instance, while an impressive multi-year reduction in opium poppy cultivation continued in South East Asia, Afghanistan recorded a large increase in 2006.
