Think a cherished post. Of when he silent not of us and its enemy and if i may need a political model and its out of this. Less than a days drive away one country and one city above all positively celebrate the economics of demonic for postage in 2000 the dutch government to the radical step of legalizing prostitution ostensibly as a means to prevent women being trafficked and forced into the sex industry. Today there are more than 1200 prostitution businesses traval m. M saddam alone has 300 bras and. All and believes that it has the best system of dealing with the worst excesses of sexual slavery are nowhere sums up more than the city of amsterdam but look behind the windows and doors that proposition really hold up to scrutiny. But thats legislators have not lost their mind in prostitution policy but there is a vision that if you tried to compare old van gelder heads amsterdam polices and to traffic the school one of the positive advantages of our policy is that for instance prostitute has no fear for the police its a Legal Profession if you follow the rules the police wont bother you and i understand that we only see the tip of the iceberg but at least its a percentage of the branch which we cant control they rent but with only 7 detectives out of a city police force of 6000. 00 offices were just how much does harold van gelder actually see let alone control now. Yes is it possible to say the percentage of women in the sex industry here and im system who have been trafficked now its not possible its. Not even an estimation and no i dont i cant give you that because at least we dont even know how much how much profit to tell working in amsterdam because we are not registration the prostitutes why should the police wretches straight them because we dont read straight all the butchers or the bakers you know answer them. Yet just a few miles across the city Collins National trafficking reporting organization has a very clear idea of the numbers of women forced into the countries legalize prostitution industry. If you look at the figures from last year we had about a 1000 registered victims of Human Trafficking about 80 percent is sex industry and theres little doubt why so many trafficking victims and sex slaves call in the streams for its red light district theres a mob for young girls into prostitution and so i think traffickers make use of our system. Legalize prostitution to bring them in all of these to the past to get them into. Prostitution holland 660000000 euros every year 4000000 tourists flock to amsterdam most to steroids and often times the mines the prostitutes working in its me only windows and i have a lot of enemies here and i try on the women and Families Together if we have down here bush asked me and the victim in the traffic toshi that has worked for 16 years with the women has been working in the windows of amsterdams red light districts if you want to you even think and you want to believe there are a lot. The things what they are doing you know. The story behind them is so all different that what you see each street she says is organized by nationality. There are certain streets where you have the south america transsexuals then theres another street where the majority are hungary and then here you have the Spanish Speaking i guess how have things changed in the sex industry in all of from say 1520 years ago to now. Because of the European Union whenever we open up in the 9 months for a counterstrike romania bulgaria hungary i mean we see this whole change at the moment the majority of the woman i see here weve got the girls from albania i mean how can a girl from albania out of a village i dont know where from no way to know where to really know how to run to win the must be an organized crime gang this is the true face of hollands experiments in legalized prostitution and this is the face of the man who trafficked her here. When sure she worked as his 6 lead. Over to year period shut down by the leader of the turkish morgan ised crime gun traffic to move them 130. 00 women mostly from Eastern Europe to hollands red light districts. Each woman was trying to with his gangs brant. Was forced to service 20 clients a day. They behaved in a very brutal way because we have seen cases of forced abortion issue cases of forced to use with the names of the pimps on the girls some girls beaten up and to hide to brutus to put in cold water and they were beaten up in a terrible way for the. Prosecutors the baron case was a warning that the dutch experiments in legalizing prostitution had worsened not solved the problem of International Sex slavery we thought in 2000 the more liberal for you to prostitution and stand outs trafficking that proved to be wrong 60 to 70 percent of the women. In this case were being forced to work in legalized prostitution seems it is modern slavery jeff again human being is a kind of modern slavery. 5000 miles away in america the man who once led the global fight against slavery has long argued that holland is the cause of not the solution to International Sex trafficking. Think all its happened is the dutch government has become the super template for 4 years john miller was the u. S. State departments anti slavery worldwide ambassador today he sees the history of slavery repeating itself. Believe that theyre being very sophisticated regulating the interesting thing is this is the exact same approach they took back in the 17th century the dutch used to boast about how they had the healthiest slave ships they had the best ventilation they had the best ration they had the best mattresses for the slaves they provided doctors. But slavery went on and all their talk about regulation was an excuse to avoid abolition every year the u. S. Governments publishes a report which judges every country in the world on its efforts to stamp out slavery the trafficking in persons or tip report ranks countries that do the most as tier one. The state department has always given tier one status to holland despite the vehement opposition of john miller i have visited the red light district ive seen the young men with the leather jackets standing outside those windows counting who goes in and making sure they get all the profits all i can say is i didnt think according to our law that they were to or why. Giving such favored status to rich western countries which fuel demand for sex slaves angers impoverished source countries like moldova least because it slowly ranking has put it in danger of economic sanctions from washington. And very often we see that economically strong countries with making good of both these are exactly the countries well our citizens exploited this in the countries that failed to show protections that these other countries that imposed those double standards. The fates of the 2 convicted sex traffickers highlights those double standards. Alexander will spend the next 19 years locked in a moldovan prison. Is back home in turkey and free the dutch government allowed him out of jail for one day you have squandered and never return. Until the rich western countries address the demand for prostitution rather than profit from it there will always be men like the bali and. And there will always be sex slaves behind these windows.
