Criminal Division

Attorneys for Iraq and Afghanistan Print-Friendly View
The mission of the Criminal Division is to enforce federal criminal laws; ensure fair and impartial justice through the support and supervision of federal criminal laws; and develop, establish, and implement federal criminal policies.

  • National Security and Justice Sector Development Overseas
    • A primary mission of the Department of Justice in support of the U.S. national security strategy is combating international terrorism and other forms of transnational crime (e.g., trafficking in persons, organized crime, public corruption, money laundering, narcotics, cyber crime, and intellectual property violations). To accomplish this mission we must have effective partners abroad.
    • The fundamental interests of the United States are also served by the promotion of democracy and regional stability, and the establishment of rule of law overseas. To attain these goals we must help develop effective foreign law enforcement and justice sector institutions.
