Up and running since June 1999, OLAF is the main organisation protecting the EU's financial interests. The office, based in Brussels, fights fraud, cases of which harm the EU's interests. It also investigates corruption and any other illegal activity inside the institutions of the EU. At the heart of this fight is information: collecting, verifying, and analysing data. This then needs to be passed on to the relevant bodies like the EU institutions, anti-fraud services in the EU and candidate countries as well as economic organisations and people across Europe. This film, produced in collaboration with the members of the anti-fraud communicators' network, shows OLAF at work. Download: ec.europa.eu Related article

Up and running since June 1999, OLAF is the main organisation protecting the EU's financial interests. The office, based in Brussels, fights fraud, cases of which harm the EU's interests. It also investigates corruption and any other illegal activity inside the institutions of the EU. At the heart of this fight is information: collecting, verifying, and analysing data. This then needs to be passed on to the relevant bodies like the EU institutions, anti-fraud services in the EU and candidate countries as well as economic organisations and people across Europe.

Colombian government officials and leaders of the FARC rebel group are due to arrive for peace talks in Norway, aimed at bringing an end to 50 years of conflict. The government wants to stop both the insurgency and drug trafficking by the rebels. FARC is seeking commitment to rural development and political representation. Both sides will have to agree to the terms of an amnesty for the fighters. Al Jazeera's Teresa Bo has been talking to one FARC commander in Cuba who says a ceasefire remains a key issue. The peace talks will represent the latest attempt by Norway to help broker a truce in a long-running conflict. The country has a track record of bringing enemies together, as Linda Nyberg reports from Oslo.

United Nations, New York, 24 September 2009: The Security Council, in a summit meeting this morning presided over by the US President Barack Obama, adopted Resolution 1887, which, among other things, calls upon the States that are party to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) to comply fully with all their obligations and fulfill their treaty commitments. It also calls upon all States to sign and ratify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). Todays meeting only the fifth in the Council's history to be held at the level of heads of State and government began with the unanimous adoption of a resolution by which the 15-member body voiced grave concern about the threat of nuclear proliferation and the need for global action to combat it. Although we averted a nuclear nightmare during the Cold War, we now face proliferation of a scope and complexity that demands new strategies and new approaches, said Mr. Obama, the first US President to preside over a Security Council meeting. Just one nuclear weapon exploded in a city be it New York or Moscow, Tokyo or Beijing, London or Paris could kill hundreds of thousands of people. And it would badly destabilize our security, our economies, and our very way of life. Website: www.ctbto.org Webcast: webcast.un.org
