Welcome to this episode of The Opioid Matrix: A Journey Into The Rabbit Hole. In this episode we take a deep dive into the Domestic Side of the war on drugs.
In our conversation with Michael Brown, Counter-Narcotics Interdiction Business Development Director at Rigaku Analytical Devices, we talk about:
How the Taliban “banned” opium essentially controlling the market and converting their reserves into heroin
How this market control has directly led to an increase of methamphetamine production in the country
How heroin and meth produced in Afghanistan is finding its way into Europe via the Balkan Route
