The Albanian mafia had some troubles before.
Their main activities are in Europe and the UK, with the largest share in France... The Gallic rooster has always been very active in absorbing immigrants. France has a tradition of absorbing foreign immigrants. Currently, foreign immigrants living in France account for more than 10% of the French population, and about 20 foreign immigrants enter France every year. Although some French people reject foreigners due to racial discrimination or social competition, and French right-wing parties also advocate restrictions on foreign immigration, no public policy makers have implemented measures to completely eliminate immigration.
First, France needs to pay social security through the immigrant labor force to cope with the problem of insufficient social security funds caused by the aging population. Secondly, in the tide of economic globalization and rapid development of science and technology, France needs to attract high-end talents and investors in various industries such as scientific and technological research and development, business management, medical health, art and sports, and maintain and promote the prosperity and development of various fields. Secondly, France also needs foreign immigrant labor to do hard and low-income jobs that the French are unwilling to do. In addition, it must assume humanitarian obligations, accept applications for family reunification, and resettle foreigners who enter the country illegally and request asylum.
The characteristic of French welfare is that, regardless of nationality, as long as a person has legal residence status in France, he or she can enjoy welfare. That is to say, as a latecomer, immigrants can enjoy the same welfare as the French. There are too many welfare benefits: the government takes out a large amount of money from the treasury every year for various welfare subsidies. The child starts to enjoy one of these 400 welfare benefits from the fifth month after the mother's pregnancy until he grows up and dies. French welfare expenditure as a percentage of GDP: 34.9% in France This can be seen from the proportion of welfare expenditure. France has been the country with the highest nationality quality in the world for eight consecutive years, which means that people holding French passports have stable development in France; abroad, they can enjoy visa-free entry to many countries, have a perfect travel experience and excellent settlement conditions. Germany and Finland are tied for second place. The scores of these two countries are not much different from France, and France has a slight advantage in the aspect of "freedom of settlement". According to the EU agreement, any citizen of an EU member state can live, work, study, and retire in the 27 EU countries and the four European Free Trade Association countries of Switzerland, Norway, Iceland, and Liechtenstein, and enjoy basically the same welfare benefits and rights as local citizens. With a French passport, you can choose any of the 4 European countries to live, study and work, and you can travel freely between these countries without applying for a visa or customs clearance.
Permanent real estate property rights In France, the ownership of land and real estate is permanent and can be transferred to spouses, descendants and others, and can be passed down from generation to generation. High return on investment Compared with domestic housing prices, the current European real estate prices have gradually been accepted by ordinary investors, and the cost performance is high. Mature management French real estate management is very mature, and property management and entrusted management are managed by professional companies. Children enjoy international education France is the third largest host country for international students in the world. Education that can be enjoyed after immigrating to France. French educational benefits: free public education from elementary school to university. This is not available in many European and American countries, especially kindergartens and universities are free. This is beyond the capabilities of many so-called welfare powers.
This also leads to many immigrants from poor areas being very fond of going to France.
The country’s immigration policy is unique. Different from the “melting pot” multicultural development model, France adopts a unique “republican model” that weakens the ethnic consciousness of immigrants in an institutionalized way, and emphasizes the commonality brought by citizenship based on the “individual-government” contract with the country as the center, so as to assimilate foreign ethnic groups instead of highlighting the diverse characteristics of ethnic groups. In other words, the policy structure treats everyone equally.
The "republican model" originated from the centralist political proposition formed after the Great Revolution, and also from the spirit of equality upheld by France, aiming to promote French national identity. But will ethnic differences disappear due to selective neglect? French scholars believe that the "republican model" is a myth in contemporary France.
Under the "republican model", France once absorbed a lot of immigrants from other European countries. After World War II, with the traditional 20s, immigrants from the Maghreb region, France's former North African colony, entered France in large numbers. Large differences in language, religion and culture challenge the government's immigration policy. The French have found that new immigrants have neither the desire nor the ability to complete assimilation under the "republican model", which has brought more and more social problems to the country and sparked controversy in the political arena. Right-wing parties demand changes to the regulations on granting nationality and doubt the loyalty of new immigrants to the country; left-wing parties demand improvements in the social environment and the establishment of special agencies to assist in the "assimilation" of immigrants. However, they all believe that the inability of immigrants to integrate is affected by culture, religion or traditional family relationships.
In the late 20s, as social problems caused by immigration intensified, the French government did not adopt measures to promote cultural diversity and coexistence, but instead tried to weaken ethnic characteristics through anti-discrimination policies, attempting to use anti-discrimination methods to rebuild immigrants' confidence in the French nation-state and enhance civic identity.
The new policy brings new problems, namely, who is discriminated against by society? When carrying out policy mobilization, the terms "Arabs", "Gypsies", "blacks", "Asians" or "people of color" are still used to mobilize the people; but in the formulation of specific measures, anti-discrimination policies try not to highlight a single ethnic group, and define the beneficiaries as "youth with an immigrant background", "youth in poor communities", etc.
When explaining the anti-discrimination policy, the former French interior minister used the term "people born in the recent wave of immigration", but in fact everyone knows that the vast majority of people he is referring to are North African or black descendants in French society. Not only that, in government statistics, France also tries to avoid using race or ethnicity as a basic classification to prevent immigrants from feeling isolated and excluded. This practice has been questioned. Demographic experts once asked in an article in Le Monde: If we want to oppose discrimination against new immigrants, but we are not allowed to use race or ethnicity as a basic statistical unit to measure the degree and negative impact of social discrimination, how can we fight discrimination?
Under the "republican model", France's anti-discrimination policy aimed at solving immigration problems is disguised. Anti-discrimination targets regional development imbalances and supports underdeveloped regions in various ways, such as increasing the proportion of colleges and universities enrolling students in low-income communities. In addition, the government is also evasive and vague when describing the composition of citizens.
Just because the government doesn't mention it doesn't mean the problem has disappeared. In public opinion, a gap between "us" and "them" has gradually emerged. In French history, there has been no prevention of the emergence of terms such as "Poles" and "Middle Easterners" targeting immigrants. During the Algerian War of Independence, there were also clear-cut references such as "French Muslims" and "North African French". Today, the so-called "Beur" group refers to the second generation of Maghreb immigrants.
The former French interior minister once said, "If someone moves into your house and eats the contents of your refrigerator, do you have the right to kick him out?" This statement regards the country as private property, emphasizes that outsiders are guests and should be reserved and polite, and implies that immigrants can enjoy rights but also fulfill their obligations. However, this statement itself distinguishes immigrants as an ethnic group from native French people. Doesn't emphasizing these things emphasize that immigrants are new and have a low status?
Under this sentiment, the French "republican model" has formed a paradox, with a group of people who are neither French nor foreigners, neither "newcomers" nor locals, neither guests nor hosts. And these people themselves do not consider themselves "assimilated" by mainstream society because of the "republican model" or anti-discrimination policies.
The troubled "republican model" immigration policy has not brought France a uniform national identity as it was supposed to. Using "assimilation" as a cover and a "skin-indifferent" policy instead of promoting the coexistence of multiple cultures has deepened ethnic confrontation.
This has caused many immigrant groups to be excluded by the so-called mainstream in France, and this has naturally led to the emergence of various gangs.
Under these circumstances, Albanian gangs emerged in France.
However, in an accident, Albania suffered a heavy blow!
As for the reason... no one knows. All we know is that overnight, the Albanian mafia's strongholds in Paris were hit and many people died.
The government covered up this matter. There was no other way. Too many people died, and all of them were immigrants and illegal immigrants. Once it was exposed, it would immediately cause an uproar. Maybe other immigrants would take to the streets...
The French are always happy to take to the streets and do something exciting.
This kind of thing happens almost every year, but the authorities will still be more cautious when it comes to immigration issues.
Not to mention, along with the Albanian gangs, a large group of high-ranking officials and dignitaries were also wiped out... What on earth were these people doing, and why were they wiped out along with the Albanian gangs... Everyone who should know, knows.
Although the loss of so many important figures made the authorities very annoyed.
But thinking of these people's deadly "hobby", the authorities decisively shut up. After all, if it were exposed, it would cause even greater trouble.
Although the incident was suppressed, the impact still spread. First of all, the power of the Albanian mafia in France was greatly reduced... The Albanian mafia used to be so powerful that even the Russian mafia had to give up.
But after the massacre, the number of Albanian personnel in France suddenly decreased by 40%!
The competition between the Albanian gangs and the Russian gangs is very fierce.
Moreover, the main way for Albanian gangs to make money is through cyber fraud, human trafficking and the sex business. Just like the gang in northern Myanmar, they usually smuggle poor people and refugees from Albania and the Balkans to developed European and American countries such as Italy, France, Britain and the United States. The more illegal immigrants there are from Albania, the easier it is for them to form more gangs. Many young Albanian women have become street prostitutes in European and American countries.
In this regard, there are huge business conflicts with the Russian gang.
So when Albania's manpower was greatly reduced, the Russian gang immediately launched a counterattack.
In fact, it’s not just the Mao Bear Gang.
Local white gangs, black gangs and Arab gangs all took action. In just half a month, almost 80% of Albania's territory and business in Paris were taken away... They couldn't take it back for the time being.
There was no way. It was impossible to find manpower in a short time. After all, they recruited new people from their hometowns or from immigrants from their own country. As for the locals... the gap was too big.
So they can only expand the market.
Where to expand?
Of course it’s the United States!
It's funny to say that although American gangs look intimidating, in fact, in the world's underworld, American gangs look more like a group of thugs.
Looking at the world's famous mafia in Russia, the United States, Japan, Italy and other countries, although their actions may be barbaric or high-sounding, their influence on the region and even the world's political economy through the expansion of their power is the same. Russian mafia has long been engaged in arms and nuclear transactions, which has always been a nightmare for the US government. Japan's Yamaguchi-gumi mafia has maintained the support of the people behind its crimes - not only does it have strict discipline within the gang, but it also actively participated in rescue after the two major earthquakes in Japan. The Italian mafia is active all over the world, and the Colombian mafia relies on drug trafficking to make a fortune. Medellin, the second largest city in Colombia, has almost become the territory of drug lords.
In comparison, American gangs are more like a joke...no style at all.
American gangs are at the bottom of the world's gang contempt chain!
So many gangs want to go to the United States to make money. First of all, the economy is good. To put it bluntly, gangs are all about money! So they go wherever there is money.
Secondly, grassroots management is poor.
Gangs need a living environment. For example, in China, the living environment of gangs is very difficult, no, harsh! There is no living space at all. But it is different in the United States. Here money is supreme, and the grassroots management is quite loose. So gangs can live well here.
Therefore, the United States is the first choice for many gangs to "go overseas".
All the famous gangs in the world who want to develop will come to the United States.
For example, the famous Mafia, Mexican gangs, Latin American gangs and so on.
So the Albanian gangs also decided to go to sea.
Don’t fight with the Russian bears in Europe!
First, go to the American gangsters to recover your health.
So they came over.
Then Aphrodite had the honor of becoming one of the first 'experiencers' of their business in the United States.
I just don't know how they would feel when they find out that the client they are about to take over is a god.
