Capital of Belgium and the European Union, home of NATO headquarters, Brussels has a festering drug problem.
We have been reporting here on TGP how Belgium has slowly become a narco-state.
And Brussels’ top prosecutor is hitting out at the unsustainable situation.
Julien Moinil says ‘he demanded more resources’ to battle drug-related issues that have become a scourge in the Belgian capital.
He complained today that his demands were ignored.
As he addressed a new series of shootings, he ranted: ‘I don’t see a reaction — no concrete help’.
Politico reported:
“The Belgian capital witnessed a recent wave of violence across various municipalities, including an attack on a police station in Anderlecht and multiple shootings in Molenbeek and Saint-Gilles.
‘As you can see, this hellish streak, which has been going on for several years, continues’, Moinil said, adding that Brussels has already seen 69 gun-related incidents in 2026, against the 102 that took place in 2025.
The incidents reported in Saint-Gilles were linked to a fight between two drug-trafficking gangs. Still, innocent citizens were caught in the crossfire, the prosecutor said: In one attack, clients of a pizzeria had to seek cover from the flying bullets.”
