Sweden took in more refugees than it had infrastructure to help integrate with. Swedes are culturally insular so when there were friction points the Swedish reaction is pull back. This leads to isolation. That lead to ghettos and a perfect breading ground for crime and gangs. It’s mainly Kurds and Somalis pushing cocaine that fueling a turf war. Because of Swedens laws protecting minors the gangs have figured out that paying them for hits on rivals and their families had little penalty. This started in Denmark as their testing ground. Sweden is trying to pass laws which would effectively expel the minor and their families for these kinds of crimes, but it’s a reactionary policy which won’t solve the underlying problems. There’s no simple quick fix here.
