Genevieve Kotarska

Genevieve Kotarska, Research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, discusses the rise of cocaine use despite the war on drugs. She explores the role of international paramilitary groups in the drug trade and questions the effectiveness of government policies. Kotarska debates the moral responsibility of cocaine users and suggests that legalisation may not be a simple solution. She also highlights the complex relationship between drug trade and violence, emphasizing the need for alternative approaches to drug control.
