- W845129721 abstract "In 2012, the utilization of false documents by non-governmental organizations seeking financial support for their activities became a major issue in the European Union. Most of the controversy was focused on distorted EU reports and the policy recommendations based on what were eventually determined to be falsely documented claims. Journalists and governmental officials feared that such policies would undermine Israeli security and result in renewed tension, and even violence in the Middle East. At the heart of the problem was the realization that more than a decade of the production and proliferation of false documents had resulted in a significant international crisis. The purpose of this presentation is to provide some of the background about the disturbing trends involving false documentation. With the emergence of international terrorism as a major security concern throughout Europe, authorities have recognized the key role of false documents and identities in terrorist activities. The falsification of documents in the former USSR is a common phenomenon that is approaching epidemic proportions. The increase in counterfeiting is related to the social and economic isolation following the breakdown of the Soviet Union as well as to the widespread poverty. Because the average monthly salary is only about $30 and employment opportunities are scarce, citizens are breaking the law simply to survive. This situation has had a great impact on popular attitudes toward criminal activities. According to police officials in the former Soviet Union, almost any kind of document can be falsified today. Underground false identity producers can create a wide range of identifications including simple identity cards, passports, diplomas, bills, labor contracts, passports, and visas. These forms of identification are used for anything from tax evasion to actions generating serious human rights violations. In the Soviet era, Central Asia and the Soviet southwestern borderlands were recognized as being among the best places to live in the USSR. The pleasant climate and congenial atmosphere made these regions not only the preferred retirement home for many Russians, especially those in the military. Service in these areas also constituted important steps in the political ladder ascended by individuals such as Leonid Brezhnev and Constantin Chernenko, both of whom were at one point first secretary of Moldova’s communist party while Brezhnev also served in Kazakhstan as first secretary. Yet, these regions also had, among Soviet circles, a reputation for corruption. Some would say this was a result of its more relaxed atmosphere while others suggest that it was a result of Russian influence. In Central Asia, Uzbekistan emerged as the site of a great controversy involving a Brezhnev family member who was Deputy Minister of Interior while in the southwest borderlands few places reached the level of corruption attributed to Moldova. Whatever the reasons for the emergence of this reputation, it has endured. Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and Moldova have been the targets of considerable attention among those who study corruption and crime in the FSU. One of the most widely discussed features of crime in the former USSR is the creation of false documentation that will support the performance of various illegal actions." @default.
