3. INTRODUCTION
Due to the influence of globalization, the
trade of illegal narcotics has increased at
outstanding rates all over the world.
Compared to the European countries,
Romania remains a small costumer,
cannabis and SNPP being the most
consumed drugs among young people.

4. Favourable position
Recent studies show that Romania is mainly a transit area and only
a part of the quantity of the drugs remain here for consumption.
Also, Romania has become a storage area, since most of the illegal
narcotics enter especially through the southern border and are
stored until they are finally directed towards highly-consuming
countries in Western Europe.
Romania is considered to be vulnerable to illegal flows of drugs, but
is however an active segment of the northern Balkan Route that
runs from Turkey, Bulgaria and Romania to Austria, Hungary, the
Czech Republic, Poland and Germany.
An important gateway to the west, a powerful link between Orient
and Occident and a transit point, Romania is considered to be one of
those vital spots of action and important pillars of the Balkan Route.
