Description: The 52nd session of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs (CND) concluded on March 20, 2009 in Vienna, setting the fundamentals for international drug control policies for the next decade. At the same time, it evaluated the results of the resolution drafted during the 1998 UN General Assembly Special Session (UNGASS) on the world’s drug problem. The 1998 declaration envisioned a significant reduction in the worldwide cultivation of opium poppy and coca by 2008. This objective was not achieved.
