 Dějí zvuková výstředů, dějí městře, dějí ráčky, dějí frámoví a kolegů. Dějíte mě za výstřednou Čeky republiku, dějíte předtížení toho výstřednou mítanou globalního komunitána. Tady na výstředném sločení CND agenda Všichni jsme zvukovat, že se spět sešná výstředna výstřednou mítanou zvuková výstřednou mítanou výstřednou mítanou zvuková výstřednou mítanou dějí výstřednou mítanou a kolegů, dějíte předtížení toho výstřednou mítanou. Všichni jsme zvukovat, že jsme výstřednou mítanou beselem probyvá na takový výstředný dráč. Výstřednou mítanou jen raz jen džavoste. Už jste obláčete, kdež jsme tady předtíží výstřednou mítanou díky na sly podéis, které nespoň jsme Všichni určitým zvukovatem. Teď nyskouzni náeptížení na účnost, když bylo zvukovat na drzky, které bylo zvukovat na nejlepším formu. V ČEG REPUBLIK je zvukovat nejlepším zvukovat nejlepším zvukovat nejlepším zvukovat nejlepším zvukovat nejlepším zvukovat nejlepším. V quarter a century we can provide conclusive evidence that the penalization and the criminalization do work. If you are interested in more details and more countries that took the same path, let me invite you to decide even that the Czech Republic is co-sponsoring today. Our drug policy rests on four pillars, prevention, treatment, harm reduction and law enforcement. Each of them is seen as one of four tool of eagle importance. All four pillars are there to achieve our primary aim, the welfare of our citizens and all people. We have some results to show based on verifiable data. We have the lowest number of fatal drug overdoses per capita globally. We are in the small group of countries with the globally lowest prevalence of HIV and AIDS among injecting drug users. We have a uniquely low prevalence of viral hepatitis C and B among drug injectors. Organized violent drug crime is virtually non-existent in the Czech Republic. Last but not least, thanks to harm reduction services, some 85% of our problem drug users are in regular contact with helping institutions. In this area and in many other areas of drug policy, the role of non-governmental organization has been positive and completely irreplaceable. There are things civil society does much better and more cheaply than any government in the world and is the approach of my government to use this fact for the good of the community and the nation. The data I just showed mean the Czech Republic is a country with a comparatively very low social and economic cost of illicit drugs. It is not because the Czech Republic is a drug-free country. It is because we have done our best to make the Czech Republic a country where the harms related to drugs are as low as possible. To minimize the use of drugs is one way to do it and we have used it together with other ones. This in the experience we offer and you would expect we also have some expectations regarding the output documents. Let me list the three most essential for us. The first is the problem of the death penalty. It is our wrong standing conviction that neither humans nor human institutions have the right to kill people intentionally. The evidence shows that miscarriages of justice are even more common for drug offences than in most other areas of law. Thus we require that in the output document the unacceptability of the death penalty for drug offences is clearly stated. Second and closely related is the proportionality of sentences. Proportionality is an important principle in effectively implementing the provisions of UN drug control conventions and its main objective to promote the health and welfare of humankind. Not only do disproportionate penalties destroy the sense of justice in each particular country. They often bring adverse side effects such as criminalization, stigma and social exclusion so that well-being is heavily affected. In today's interconnected world the death penalty and proportionality in sentencing are international problem and must be reflected like this in the ANGAS outcome document. The set is the importance of harm reduction. There is a conclusive scientific evidence that harm reduction save lives, improves public health and public safety. It is extremely important that we state this in the ANGAS outcome document so that it provides clear guidance for effective drug policies. We are fully aware that drug policy is a complex area and also incorporates intangibles that science is not able to quantify for example religious and other values. However, there are also universal values that constitute the very fundamentals of the United Nations and we cannot ignore them at ANGAS. We agree that it is undesirable to abolish the UN treaties on drugs. They have to stay as a foundation of the whole system. However, if we demand more of the same from the countries, no matter if it has demonstrably failed, we will not only deeply disappoint those for us for special summit at the highest UN level. We will risk the very existence of the international drug control systems. There is still a lot of work ahead of us before we have a meaningful ANGAS outcome document. We suggest that whenever we feel as if we are at dead end, we should go back to the origins of the current drug control regime, the protection of human well-being. In the view of the Czech Republic, no outcome document at all would be better than a weak outcome document for ANGAS. We would consider promoting a weak document that repeats the old stereotypes far too risky. It would be better to stay silent in recognition of our failure, to learn from it and try better looking forward to 2019. But that is not inevitable. If we work intensely with clear minds and hearts this week, we won't need to remain silent. We would have a strong document to steer us into a better future. That is my most sincere hope and wish. Thank you for attention.
