Let's Talk...Human Trafficking & Terrorism
Welcome to this week’s episode where I talk to James Wright.
James is former UK military and a specialist in counter-terrorism with extensive experience in Somalia. James offers a unique perspective on the complex connections between terrorism and human trafficking in this volatile region.
Throughout our conversation, James provides an in-depth look at his work combating terrorist networks in Somalia and how these networks often intersect with human trafficking rings.
He explains how terrorist organizations exploit vulnerable populations, using human trafficking as both a funding mechanism and a recruitment strategy. We discuss the brutal realities faced by trafficking victims who are often coerced, kidnapped, or deceived into forced labor or combat roles.
James also sheds light on the challenges of counter-terrorism efforts in a country like Somalia, where political instability, poverty, and lack of enforcement mechanisms make it difficult to dismantle the intertwined networks of terror and trafficking.
