How Sweden became a 'haven' for mafia gangs and the EU's gun crime capital off the back of surging migration
SUMMARY
Over the course of the past year, Sweden experienced a surge in violence, with multiple violent attacks, including shootings and bombings, with three people killed on September 27th-28th. The rise is tied to heightened migration levels, contributing to gang recruitment and foreign turf wars, particularly in migrants areas. Sweden's 'non-Western' population has grown significantly, reaching 15%. Gang violence, often involving young men with migrant backgrounds, has turned Sweden into the EU's gun-homicide capital. This has prompted calls for stricter immigration policies and improved policing.
