Posmatrači očekuju da će osim etničkih tenzija najveći problem EULEX-a biti da se suzbije jako rašireni organizirani kriminal, koji se uzdigao koristeći loše osigurane granice sa Srbijom, Crnom Gorom, Albanijom i Makedonijom.
Observers expect that, ethnic tensions aside, EULEX's biggest problem will be curbing the rampant organised crime that has sprung up to take advantage of the poorly enforced borders with Serbia, Montenegro, Albania and Macedonia.
