The report also describes the countries listed as major illicit drug producing or drug transit countries and notes the countries that have cooperated fully with the United States or taken adequate steps on their own to achieve full compliance with the goals and objectives of the 1988 United Nations Convention Against Illicit Traffic in Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances. The report notes that although the international drug trade remained active and sophisticated in 1995, more prominent drug figures were incarcerated by early 1996 than in any comparable period in the past few years. In addition, drug crop eradication gained better acceptance as a means of limiting cocaine and opium production, national drug enforcement units continued to disrupt trafficking organizations, and governments of several countries confronted the corruption related to the drug trade. The United States will continue to provide leadership and assistance to other countries in the global antidrug effort. Tables and figures
