Human trafficking is the illegal trade in human beings for the purposes of commercial sexual exploitation or forced labor: a modern-day form of slavery. It is the fastest growing criminal industry in the world, and tied with the illegal arms industry as the second largest, after the drug-trade. Adopted by the United Nations in Palermo, Italy in 2000, the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress, and Punish Trafficking in Persons is an international set of diplomatic guidelines established by the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organised Crime.
Human trafficking is a reality for millions of our fellow human beings around the world: men, women and, unfortunately, primarily children. In every form and from every perspective, trafficking debases human dignity, coarsely violates fundamental human rights, undermines ethics by fostering corruption, undermines international security and development, and creates vast revenues for organized crime.
The UN's initiatives, like those of the European Union, the OSCE and the Council of Europe, for closer cooperation of all the major international organizations is proof of the interest and awareness of the international community. But at the same time, the magnitude of these various initiatives points to the resilience and adaptability of trafficking networks.
Greece, too, has been touched by the problem of human trafficking, mainly in the form of trafficking rings aimed at sexual exploitation and forced labor. For these reasons, Greece has dynamically joined the global alliance for combating this phenomenon. Our country and the Foreign Ministry have joined forces on a national and international level with all those who are working together to combat this problem.
It has now been eight years since Greece implemented the legal framework for combating trafficking. In this time, we have gained significant experience from initiatives and actions on all levels: international, regional and national. There is a growing dynamic in the confronting of this problem; a dynamic that is already producing results. This year, prosecutions rose by 65%, convictions rose by 52%, and we have increased care and protection for victims identified by the District Attorney by 60%.
So we are meeting our commitments within the framework of the new European legislation that secures the necessary political platform for building the coordinated action of the European Union in the fight against trafficking in human beings.
We are also ratifying two fundamental legal and political tools: the United Nations Convention against Transnational Organized Crime and its Protocols the Palermo Convention and the Council of Europe's Warsaw Convention for combating human trafficking.
The most vital pillar of actions is, perhaps, prevention of the phenomenon. Within this framework, we are developing public awareness campaigns and training of co-competent agencies with the aim of reducing demand for the services provided by the victims of trafficking and exploitation.
We will endeavor to approach the younger generations through awareness campaigns on music video TV stations. We will raise the voices of students from various junior high and high schools; voices raising awareness among friends and fellow students on the critical issue of demand.
We will present the role of the private sector and enterprises being called upon to protect their employees from exploitation and labor trafficking within the framework of Corporate Social Responsibility.
Also to be presented are the initiatives of our NGO partners within the framework of the protection of minors forced to beg and engage in prostitution, child pornography, the abduction and disappearance of children.
In our area, many Gray Wolves facilitate all kinds of human trafficking. Basil Venitis notes Gray Wolves is the terrorist arm of the Turkish government. These barbarians are named after Asena, a female wolf in mythology associated with Turkic ethnic origins. The organization carried out many thousands of murders, especially in Cyprus. Gray Wolves have been responsible for numerous political assassinations and disappearances of human rights activists, and have ties with the Turkish mafia. Gray Wolf Mehmet Ali Agca attempted to kill Pope John Paul II in 1981.
Venitis claims that many human traffickers are in cahoots with Orthodox mafias and Orthodox oligarchs. The three main Orthodox mafias are the Tambov gang from St. Petersburg and Izmaylovskaya gang and Solntsevskaya Brotherhood from Moscow. Their activities focus on human trafficking, political corruption, church corruption, protection money, blackmail, drugs trade, shipping, commodity trade, and natural resources. Orthodoxy's circle of tycoons, such as aluminium magnate Oleg Deripaska, banking magnate Vitaly Malkin, and shipping magnates, have been investigated by Europol for involvement in crimes of Eurokleptocrats. Venitis points out Russokleptocrats use the Orthodox Church to control Russians and influence Orthodox Christians all over the world.
Many women are trafficked to Arabia. Petrodollars support many harems and sexual deviations of Arab princes. Islam is very misogynist, trading women as commodities. Venitis notes that diapered Rubenesques, the Islamic zombies, show the misogyny of Islam. Europeans cannot tolerate the burqa, an outer garment covering a woman from head to toe with just a mesh screen to look through , and the niqab, similar to a burqa but with a slit for the eyes instead of mesh, as oppressive to women. The burqa and niqab confiscate a woman's existence, and they are a sign of enslavement and debasement. Those who wear them are victims, zombified by Islamofascists. EU favors banning these coffins for women's basic liberties. The burqa and niqab are proof of the presence of Muslim fundamentalists on Fourth Reich soil and of the politicization of Islam.
