The UN has so far succeeded in maintaining relative peace within the province,
but it is a peace built on black-market economics and organised crime. Kosovo
might well be, along with its cousin Albania, the most criminalised place on
earth.

Since the end of the conflict in 1999, the province has seen spectacular rises
in drugs, arms and people trafficking. Kosovar Albanians import 80 per cent of
Europe's heroin, worth up to £12bn a year. Meanwhile, a recent Save the
Children report observed an alarming rise in the number of minors trafficked
into Kosovo.

Kate Allen, director of UK Amnesty, says, "Women and girls as young as 11 are
being sold into sexual slavery in Kosovo and international peacekeepers are...
fuelling this despicable trade by themselves paying for sex from trafficked
women."
