In todays Miami Herald, Douglas Farah recaps the CFK's failures and transgressions including this statement which I had not seen before: "allowing Argentina to become a center for transnational criminal organizations"
Is anyone else aware of criminal organizations relocating here?

heard many stories of the Russian mafia having operations here. The Chinese mafia is also said to have a strong presence here.
 
That could solve some of our problems. In New York City there's an enclave of Russian Immigrants in Brooklyn called 'Little Odessa'. The Russian Mafia has brought with them the skills they acquired while coping with communist bureaucracy in the UUSR. Whatever you need they sell it, especially legal documents. Can't get a drivers license or visa? No problem.
 
Old news...

“This is a place where the probability of indictment is extremely low, where the authorities in the provinces don’t have any capacity to investigate complex crimes, and which doesn’t cooperate much internationally,” Mr. Buscaglia said.
 
It's no mystery that we're not waging any war against the drug lords from abroad.

Authorities keep talking about buying radars much needed for our country but they don'.t. Radar coverge is shitty at best. Ask yourself why?
The few military ones on the NE can only run a few hours a day due to too many shortages. Everybody knows when they are operating and when they're not. They cover a small part of our territory and are not allowed to cooperate with security forces. So useless.
Gendarmeria flies a couple of choppers armed with shotguns. Not authorized to force a plane down. Another dangerous joke. New illegal landing strips being made daily.
NW has mostly flimsy underarmed police facing veteran paramilitary forces in the monte. Definitely not up to the task. Yet one cop got caught transporting a huge shippment of dope in Salta a year or so ago.

All this while Gendarmería (military border patrol) is minding the shantytowns and protesters.

A few imported top dog narcos have been arrested here lately and we had very unusual high visibility murders clearly drug related. Efedrin production and trafffic suddenly became a big concern of our judicial system until it got cured overnight.

It is also rumored that the sprouting of all those nice shopping malls was fuelled by drug money laundering. Considering the situation of our country at the time of their appearance it kinds of becomes the only plausible explanation.

This is a bunch of observations. Leave it up to you to decide if they're related facts or not.

Symptoms are there if you care to spot them.
 
Argentina has become the place of choice for laundering drug money. Look at Puerto Madero and now , Olivos . All this new construction could never be supported by the local economy. Much of it is Narco Dollars.

In the fear of being labeled a racist or bigot , I will say that many violent armed crime has been committed by nationals from a South American country that starts with COL.

Of course , if Joe weighs in here , he will blame the Italians.........

The Argentinian air force has been test driving a Brazilian EMBRAER R-99 airborne early warning radar aircraft since last October. The purpose would be to strengthen the monitoring of the northern airspace. No final decision to acquire this admittedly very expensive aircraft has been made yet.

I'm afraid it brings no hopes these news regarding airborne radars.

a. Air Force is basically grounded, barely funded to pay meager salaries and nothing else.
b. No political determination to do anything regarding drug problem. Security Forces instructed not to go after smugglers, just going thru the motions

c. They'll know when they are flying anyway just like when the ground radar is in operation so it'll make fuck all difference anyway.
