| #2 Allmost a decade ago the UN reported that narcotics were "easily available in Tajikistan. The 1,344km border between Afghanistan and Tajikistan is divided by a narrow river, easy to cross any time." Then some 100 tonnes of Afghan heroin were trafficked through Tajikistan every year. Now it is estimated that the figure has tripled. |

| #1 TAIJIKISTAN being described lately as "under Islamist stress". NOT Serious or catastrophic yet, but slowly getting or approaching that level. I have no doubts VLAD/VLADVEDEV = RUSSIA desires to defeat the ISIS/ISIL + Al-Nusra Boyz, etc. in Syria-Iraq quickly so he can focus on the Islamist threat to Russia's Center + FE. |
