Organized crime in Montenegro is no fairy tale that the new government will solve overnight. Miodrag Laković, a member of the Europe Now movement, openly states that this is a complex phenomenon that cannot be wiped out with a magic wand quickly. Yes, you read that right – there is no magic wand for the mafia!
Money is the Mafia’s King
Laković emphasizes that the vital resource of organized crime is money. Huge amounts of dirty money allow mafia clans to spread violence, corruption, and influence across all segments of society. While we are busy with political quarrels, they are counting cash and strengthening their positions.
The System is Under Siege
The security system, judiciary, and state administration are under constant pressure and influence from criminal structures. Laković points to numerous well-known cases that clearly show how deeply rooted this problem is.
The Fight is Long-Term
The solution is not simple and cannot be expected overnight. It is necessary to constantly strengthen capacities for effective crime suppression and increase the resilience of the entire system. Special focus should be on money flows and effective implementation of the law on the origin of assets.
The Mafia Doesn’t Give Up
While politicians often trivialize or exploit this topic for political points, the reality is that organized crime is deeply entrenched and will require a long and serious fight to eradicate.
Conclusion
So, if you thought the new government would quickly solve the mafia problem, better prepare for a long and tough road. The mafia has money, connections, and patience. And us? We only have hope and a desire for justice.
