"Madam President, reports about Kosovo describe the province as having become ghettoised. A multiethnic community has not been established. During seven years of international administration, the different ethnic groups have concentrated themselves in their own areas. One main reason for why standards have not been achieved, despite the massive input that there has been, is that Kosovo is one of the main havens for organised crime in Europe. International human trafficking and the trade in territory and weapons are rampant in Kosovo. Nothing was done about this back in 1999, when the problem was noticed: we had to wait until 2005. Now the global actors involved in the programme, however, have much too little time and too few staff for their many areas of responsibility. We therefore need to make a greater effort to address this problem of crime.
Finally, I would like to say that now that the EU is also focusing its attention on Lebanon, we should think about just how aware we are of what has happened in Kosovo and whether there might be something to learn from it for the operation in Lebanon."@en1
