Organized crime is one of the nasty byproducts of a free market. In fact, organised crime is epitome of a deregulated free market economy. I imagine if free market reforms are inserted without matching it with an equal effort of curtailing organised crime, organised crime will gain a strong hold within that setting.
By removing the Serbian police from Kosovo and inserting the impotency of the international community's "rent-a-cop", organised Albanian crime has flourished.
Looking back, then, the commentary was correct as far as the structures necessary for bringing law and order aren't rigid enough to stop it.
Right now the foxes are in charge of the henhouse, and the EU, in this case Solano, are telling the hens that they're a major part of the problem.
It's probably time to let the hens defend themselves rather than have the UN pretend to do it for them. They'll do a better job.
