SloveniaAn article from Nova24TV discusses a report by Europol revealing the extent of organized crime within the European Union. It states that there are 731 criminal networks operating across 118 countries, involving over 400,000 individuals. These networks operate transnationally, professionally, and with minimal oversight, often using legal business structures to conceal their activities. The article highlights drug trafficking as the most prevalent crime, followed by fraud, human smuggling, money laundering, and cybercrime. It notes that 85% of these networks exploit legal business frameworks to facilitate illegal activities. The piece criticizes the EU’s open borders and weak governance, suggesting they enable criminal activity rather than enhance security.
