"Today is also the Day of Combating Transnational Crime, we call on everyone to fight against organized crime," said Ghada Waly, Executive Director of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime at the conference on "Mobilization of Law Enforcement Agencies for Enhanced Climate Action" organized by the Prosecutor General's Office of the Republic of Azerbaijan within the framework of COP29 in Baku today, APA reports.
"On the Day of Combating Transnational Crime, we call on everyone to fight organized crime. We have brought criminal justice to the agenda. We first launched the Abu Dhabi Challenge Initiative at COP28. States have taken serious measures in the fight against transnational crime. The struggle in this field will be effective when we provide the necessary tools and opportunities to the law enforcement agencies. We have trained more than 2,000 law enforcement officers," said Ghada Waly.
