"The challenge of this Commission is to act and to ensure that nations have the laws, knowledge and tools needed to deliver justice appropriate to the twenty-first century," said UNODC Executive Director Antonio Maria Costa in his opening remarks. The main theme of the discussion was the threat posed by trafficking in cultural property.
