Ghana: Transnational Issues & International Disputes

Transnational Issues

Ghana

Disputes - international:	Ghana has received many refugees and returning nationals escaping rebel fighting in Cote d'Ivoire
Illicit drugs:	illicit producer of cannabis for the international drug trade; major transit hub for Southwest and Southeast Asian heroin and, to a lesser extent, South American cocaine destined for Europe and the US; widespread crime and corruption have made money laundering a problem, but the lack of a well-developed financial infrastructure limits the country's utility as a money-laundering center
