The Village that made $6 Billion a Year From a Plant (Albanian Mafia)
Albania is believed to be a major producer and exporter of illegal cannabis to Europe. There are several reasons why Albania has become a significant source of illegal cannabis in the region.
One reason is the favorable climate and fertile soil in Albania, which make it well-suited for cannabis cultivation. Additionally, Albania has a long history of cannabis production and has developed a sophisticated network for growing, processing, and distributing the drug.
Another reason for Albania's role in the illegal cannabis trade is the lack of effective law enforcement and the presence of organized crime groups that are involved in the production and distribution of the drug. Albania has struggled with high levels of corruption and a weak justice system, which have made it difficult to crack down on illegal cannabis production and trafficking.
Finally, the demand for cannabis in Europe and the high prices that the drug can command make it an attractive commodity for criminal groups looking to make a profit. As a result, illegal cannabis production and trafficking have become a significant problem in Albania and the country has become a major source of the drug in the region.
