Those parameters should be set out in the draft article which defined illicit traffic in narcotic drugs as a crime against peace, In the case of a crfme against 1. unanity, on the other hand, the State element was superfluous. Internal illicit traffic, which had grave consequences for the ’ population, could, as a result of those consequences, be assimilated in some respects to a form of genocide. It did not directly threaten international peace or the stability of a aovernment, but it harmed large groups of the populations the point was thus to preserve the concept of humanity as such, 82.Several members thought that, whatever the Special Rapportour’s intention in drafting provisions might have been, it was not clear that only large-scale and extremely serious international drug trafficking should be made a crime, Xn the opinion of these members, the definition of this crime should have been accompanied by qualitative or quantitative particulars, for otherwise not only the great drug barons but also the small dealers would come under the Code. It was therefore essential to specify clearly the kind of traffic covered. 83.In the view of one member, the draft article should, like the United Nations Convontion against Illicit Treffic in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances cover every act CbnneCted with drug trafficking, including its financial aspect. 84.

analysis: The text appears to be discussing international law and the definition of crimes related to drug trafficking. It mentions international relations, the United Nations Convention, and the concept of humanity, suggesting that the topic is related to international cooperation and the protection of human rights.
