La production d'opium a chuté de 95% en Afghanistan, suite au retour au pouvoir des Talibans et l'interdiction de la culture des drogues. Malgré cette interdiction, des trafiquants continuent de produire une drogue : la métamphétamine.
Selon l'Office des Nations unies contre la drogue et le crime, les saisies de métamphétamines afghanes ont été multipliées par 12 en cinq ans, en passant de 2,5 tonnes en 2017 à 29,7 tonnes en 2021.
Les trafiquants afghans ont un atout : l'éphédra. Cette plante sauvage pousse naturellement dans les montages du pays. Elle contient de l'éphédrine, un composant essentiel de la métamphétamine.
Pour comprendre la popularité de ce produit auprès des trafiquants afghans, Le Parisien a interrogé deux experts du sujet : David Mansfield, spécialiste du trafic de drogue en Afghanistan, et Alexander Söderholm, analyste à l'Observatoire européen des drogues et des toxicomanies.
