The current dominant ethnic group in Kosovo is Albanian. The gangs composed of this ethnic group are the protagonists of European horror urban legends. They are not only from Albanian native, but also from various Albanian communities in southeastern Europe.

Parents in various European countries have to repeatedly remind their daughters not to trust strangers when they enter adolescence, and not to drink drinks handed over by strangers.
What this warning warns against is the Albanian gang whose main business is human trafficking.
The terror assessment of Albanian gangs is not a regional stereotype against Eastern Europe. This certification comes from an official report issued by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. The report mentioned that Southeast Asia, South Asia, and Eastern Europe are the hardest hit areas for human trafficking in the world. Eastern European countries such as Albania, Russia, Ukraine, Moldova have become the main sources of human trafficking after drastic changes, and the dark forces that control all this are mainly Albanian gangs and Russian gangs.
Today, all studies on the origins of Eastern European gangs will mention the geopolitical disaster of the upheavals in Eastern Europe.
This disaster is not from the perspective of politicians, but from the perspective of ordinary people. Changes in the nature of political power in these former Warsaw Pact countries are often accompanied by economic collapse and political turmoil. The collapse of order is followed by an outbreak of ethnic conflicts. The Balkans where Albanians live was the bloodiest place in Europe in the 1990s.
As the victor of the " Cold War ", Western Europe enjoyed the fruits of victory happily at first. Western European capital purchased high-quality assets in Eastern Europe at low prices. High-quality educated talents from Eastern Europe began to enrich the labor market in Western Europe. Even the economically backward southern Italy could afford to hire young nurses and nannies from Eastern Europe.
But things often have two sides. The drastic changes in Eastern Europe not only brought about the unemployment of a large number of high-quality people, but also the excess force of the former Warsaw Pact group. These weapons, which were originally prepared to fight World War III, lost their rivals overnight, and the country's finances could no longer afford to support so many professional soldiers who were out of work.
Officers and special forces who were forced to take off their military uniforms were angry and confused in the economic turmoil. What they saw in the chaos were citizens queuing in the cold wind who still could not buy brown bread to satisfy their hunger, anti-fascist veterans with military medals who were forced to beg, and oligarchs whizzing by in imported German luxury cars.
Their beliefs were buried along with the order.
These strong men have no other skills except military skills. They can only steal guns from the arsenal prepared to deal with NATO and join the gangs. The goal of making a living is the women of the same race they swore to protect.
Such a plot is happening in Albania.
After the "Iron Curtain " disappeared, Albanians understood capitalism like a three-year-old child steering a car onto the highway. This small country was suddenly full of financing companies, and the interest rates offered by each one became more and more outrageous. Almost all Albanians have fallen into the dream of selling all their assets, handing the money to a financing company, and becoming rich overnight. Naturally, this obvious Ponzi scheme exploded.
From the dream of getting rich overnight to the reality of bankruptcy overnight, Albania fell into nationwide riots, and the country's arsenal was affected by the riots. Albania was at war with the United States and the Soviet Union at the same time during the "Cold War". The entire country suffered from severe persecution paranoia, so millions of firearms of various types were stored in the arsenal to prevent invasion.
However, this large number of guns flowed into the public during the riots. At that time, the streets of Albania were filled with unemployed young people wandering around armed with AK assault rifles.Albania has long been a mountainous country with very few products and resources. In this extreme environment, poor and unemployed young people took up guns and went to European countries to "hunt".
At that time, various industries in the old capitalist countries in Western Europe had already developed to a very mature level, and the profitable industries were all controlled by locals, leaving little room for outsiders. In this case, Albanians set their sights on a special industry: crime. The main "products" are drugs and population.
Compared with drugs, which require production, transportation and other links, human trafficking is much simpler and more crude, as long as the person is kidnapped. In the war-torn and turbulent 1990s, Eastern Europe was full of young girls who longed to live in Western Europe. Albanian gangs only needed to trick girls into leaving with them under the guise of going to big cities in Western Europe to work as waiters or models, at almost "zero cost."
When the girls discovered that everything was wrong, it was too late, and they had been sent deeper into hell. This is an industry that involves the darkest aspects of human nature. They are sold to the red light districts of major cities in Western Europe, and their personal freedom is controlled. Once they disobey the gang's arrangements, they will be beaten severely or even injected with drugs to control their thoughts.
In the process, Albanian gangs established a human trafficking network across Europe. Even in Albania itself, which has a population of less than three million, at least 1,400 girls are trafficked every year, many of whom are not even adults yet. The efficiency of judicial agencies across Europe is low, and the fight against human trafficking has not been ideal for so many years. In addition, the Albanian gangs have armed firepower that is not inferior to that of the police, which further fuels their arrogance.
Evil succeeds because good people do nothing.
