Germany intends to take the opportunity of its EU Council Presidency to raise awareness among the Member States of a phenomenon it knows well--clan crime, according to a memorandum it drafted on 8 September, a copy of which has been obtained by EUROPE.
The country has indeed been exceptionally affected by this phenomenon and, after a series of bloody conflicts in the very heart of its capital, it decided to harden its tone and go to war against the mafia clans operating on its territory.
