Italian Chief Prosecutor of the National Anti-Mafia Bureau Pietro Grasso has commented on the cooperation his office has with Serbia, and Montenegro. Grasso was quoted as saying by the Podgorica-based TV Vijesti that his bureau has the most effective cooperation regarding organized crime and drug trafficking with the colleagues in Serbia, and the worst with the Montenegrin prosecution. "Best cooperation with Serbia, worst with Montenegro" Grasso told the station that modern criminals, who are active and flexible depending on market demands, have marked the Balkans as storage for drugs that should go to Europe, since distribution to any location can be realized from the region in less than 24 hours. The main characteristics of modern-day criminals are different types of smuggling, flexibility and versatility, and besides drugs, mostly cocaine, that is obtained in South America, Afghanistan and Pakistan, arms and explosive are also being smuggled, Grasso said. He added that the organized crime groups were composed of members of secret police and paramilitary groups from the former Yugoslav republics, and the fact that they have taken over the dirtiest business from their Italian colleagues implies how strong they are. Members of such organized groups, as Grasso put it, are mutually connected and work together regardless of there in the former Yugoslavia they hail from. He stated that a powerful crime group in the Balkans had taken over drug trafficking from Italy to Montenegro from Calabria's mafia, which controls cocaine trafficking in the whole Europe.
