COMMENTS:
I'm not sure where you are coming from with the ballot premise. Isn't Kosovo going through this "final status" determination through the UN? If granted nationhood, I'm sure Serbia would view it as a criminal or renegade state, but Albania probably would not as there is a majority ethnic Albanian population in Kosovo. I would say that it would not be a criminal state if the current process is followed (pending other information which could change my mind).
^Seems like I should have explained myself better.
Kosovo is overwhelmingly corrupt, and this corruption concerns all social strata.
The political liaisons with the various criminal groups operating in the region are appalling. They have connections with international groups, like the infamous 'Ndrangheta (considered the richest criminal group in the whole world). Also important are the so-called Albanian Mafias (legendary for their brutality) which pretty much controls the heroin traffic and are an important intermediary between Turkish and western European criminal groups. This is known as the Pristina-Podgorica-Tirana Triangle. It’s also mainly through this triangle that prostitutes and illegal immigrants to the west are smuggled to the west.
The eagerness to create this country has made many people forget that their police force is small and inadequately trained; judges are also very poorly trained and corrupt (I remember the case of a woman who was abducted and forced to prostitute herself that had the guts to sue her kidnapper/ pimp; the judge let him go saying, that what he did was wrong but he was a business man trying to make a living…)”.
The whole territory, despite being very small, is hard to control. All this makes be believe that many Albanians from Kosovo will use their independence as an excuse to assassinate serbs, who were forced to seek shelter in remote parts of the north.
As soon as MINUK leaves the country leaves the country there will be a recession which will increase even more crime and corruption. We’re looking at a new Albania, version 1997.
Voted : No
Certainly no more criminal than Serbia or many other states with problems.
Serbian authorities try to fight the crime; they do not promote it.
Ok thanks seamus. I think the point that you are trying to make is that because of the people in charge in Kosovo are criminal or corrupt this will make the country a criminal state. I do not believe that creating the nation by itself means that it is a criminal state. It is the actions that make it a criminal state.
