Group of 24
G-24

The Group of 24 (G-24) was founded on July 15, 1989 during the G-7’s summit meeting in Paris with a view to coordinate financial aid to former Communist countries. The G-24’s member countries and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development are exactly the same. Since its foundation, the G-24 has funneled roughly $10 billion to those countries from the former Eastern Bloc. Actual fund endowments have been subjected to the implementation of democratic and economic reforms by their respective nations.
A much different G-24 has been around since 1977 and it shouldn’t be mixed up with the above-mentioned organization. This other G-24 is made up of African, Asian, South American and Central American nations interested in fostering financial interests of the world’s developing countries. Curiously, on April 1993, G-24’s representatives publicly demonized a huge bailout plan for Russia passed by the other Group of 24.
International Criminal Police Organization
INTERPOL

On June 13, 1956, the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) replaced the International Criminal Police Commission founded in 1923. This organization serves as an information and database center on criminal activities used by law enforcement agencies from 177 countries. Each member nation relies on a national office that receives information from the INTERPOL and dole it out among its local offices and agencies nationwide. INTERPOL keeps a close eye on drug smuggling and money laundering operations. Shortly after World War II, INTERPOL was directly run by the Nazi Party and that situation remained so through the entire war . In 1938, its headquarters were moved from Vienna (Austria) to Berlin (Germany). Today, the headquarters are in Lyon, France
