Italian anti-mafia: Albania, a corrupt country, the most powerful Albanian mafia

The Italian Anti-Mafia prosecutor, Nicola Gratteri, has spoken about the agreement signed between Albania and Italy regarding Middle Eastern refugees.

Invited to "La 7" , Gratteri referred to the involvement of Albanians in criminal activities, saying that the Albanian mafia is ranked second in Europe after Ndragheta, as the most powerful.

Above all, Gratteti stressed that Albania itself is a corrupt and weak country, evaluating the judicial system as well.

"We have to see how it will be and what will happen. I cannot know what will happen. I can tell you, I can talk to you about the Albanian mafia and the Albanian mafia is the second in Europe, after Ndrangeta. The Albanian mafia is very strong and be careful that we are not dealing with a mafia that deals with the theft of villas, but we see a collaboration of activities with the Ndrangeta in the Amazon forests buying cocaine in bulk.

We see it in the subcontracting of transportation with the Macedonians. The Albanian mafia is very strong in the North of Europe and it is a strong mafia inside Albania, because Albania itself is a corrupt country and a weak country in this respect. Likewise in the view of the judiciary. The presence of Italy in Albania is not a modern fact. "For more than 10 years, 'Guardia di Finanza' helicopters have been used in Albania to control marijuana cultivation in the country ," Gratteri stated.
