As we are aware about, in many countries all around the world the
Mafia-type criminal organizations are in very good health at the point
that are capable to influence directly
the government’s policies.
This situation sometime is not solved quietly with common satisfaction for
both the actors involved. Often it happens that to seek money organized crime groups
have to fight each other to establish power on a specific area. In this way
usually starts the turf war that ended with a violence escalation to detriment
of security of the social community.
To end this state of the art the government’s authorities -quite always- seek with the OCG a
dialogue to obtain the end of this uncomfortable and affordable situation for
the populace.
And that is the point. Is it a necessary evil seek a truce with
criminals? A politician will answer publicly No but privately Yes this is what
happens normally as our experience suggest. But what we have to consider is the
fact that the politician pass the damage for society not at all. Ones this kind
of agreement is settled the OCG will take advantage of it for the time on and
it will be very difficult for the government to came back.
One very little result can be achieved in the short term but with time
the power of blackmail in the hand of OCG will for sure erode the fundament of
pacific cohabitation.
