Europeans (but not only), brace yourselves 😳
This report by Swiss NGO Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime (GITOC) looks at the risk of a massive increase of weapons that could arrive in Europe after the end of the conflict in Ukraine.
▪️This will lead to an increase in violence in Western countries.
▪️The cessation of hostilities could trigger a wave of serious arms smuggling from the conflict zone.
▪️Lifting martial law in Ukraine could lead to a reduction in state control and allow criminal networks to expand.
▪️Experience gained during the war, including skills in using drones and conducting special operations, could radically change the methods and scale of organized crime.
