As a recent Politico EU article put it: Europe is Awash with Drugs.
Finland has the highest drug related death rate among youths in Europe. While Scotland leads in overall fatal overdose rates, and countries like Sweden are also ‘battling’ for the top spot in the drug death rankings.
Albanians have turned Belgium into the cocaine capital of Europe and the 5th most cocaine infested nation in the drug seizure rankings. While in the Netherlands the ethnic Moroccans have a network known as the ‘Morco Mafia’ which smuggles drugs from South America to the nation and then on to the rest of Europe.
In the last 2 years the UK Border Force and regional police forces have seized the most cocaine and ketamine since recordkeeping began. It is no coincidence that tens of thousands of Ablanians have arrived to the island nation during that same timeframe.
This trade in drugs manufacture, smuggling and dealing is overwhelmingly an ethnic minority pursuit. Belgian customs agents, only 700 of whom monitor 60,000 workers at one of Europe’s busiest ports, will openly speak about Albanian, Moroccan and Arab gangs which run the trade and bribe, or threaten, workers.
Europe’s containerships from South America are laden with billions of tons of drugs each year, while national (and EU) authorities do not seem at all concerned about the issue beyond making token arrests and statements.
Many in Brussels, Berlin, London and Stockholm would like to blame the illicit drug trade on a lack of technology, a lack of manpower, and a lack of funding, but the truth is that the drug trade is growing because Europe’s immigrant demography is expanding at a record rate and globalization (and globalism more broadly) enable these trends to continue.
Migrants crossing the Mediterranean are often loaded down with drugs and other illicit materiel. How else might a young African man with little money and no prospects be able to convince a smuggler to put him on a boat?
It is not only the world’s destitute brown masses that are bringing these substances to Europe, however. Business jets and other luxury world-traversing craft are often used to carry large amounts of cocaine and other illicit substances. EURPOL (the EU’s policing coordination agency) is well aware of the problem, but blames a lack of technological advancement (particularly in scanning the skies) as the reason for an inability to tackle the issue.
European elites may not want to shut down the illicit drug trade, but nationalists and other right-wing activists do. Towing ships back to the coasts of Africa is a start. No admittance policies must be adopted in Europe and Britain so that no one showing up on Europe’s shores is ever offered a chance to claim asylum. Especially if they originate from a safe third country.
The European Union should mandate that every container entering its ports go through an x-ray tunnel and it should bill South American nations for the lost time and revenue until they begin dealing with the problem on their side of the Atlantic.
And of course, there is repatriation. Foreign nationals, their children, and their coethnics from third world states must be returned to their homelands. If the ethnic gangs do not exist, the drug trade will cease to function and Europeans will, to a great extent, stop dying avoidable deaths.
