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’.
This is not a new reality: headline from 4 years ago.
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.”
The Brussel Times reported:
“Brussels police and prosecutors are increasingly dealing with French minors being recruited to take part in the city’s drug trade, with dozens arrested in recent weeks and months.”
[Brussels prosecutor Julien Moinil] said they are often recruited through social media, although investigators have also identified links between Brussels-based and French drug gangs. Moinil has ordered a detailed analysis to establish exactly how many minors are involved and where they come from.
The findings are expected soon, but the issue is already creating serious difficulties for the Brussels justice system.
‘These are easy targets for drug gangs, and they are easy to replace’, Moinil said. [Also,] French minors arrested in Brussels often have to be released because there is no room to hold them. Moinil said those young people should ideally be taken in closer to home, through the French youth care or justice systems.”
