I've heard all about Irish or Jewish associates in Cosa Nostra. What about Russians or Ukrainian ones or any other Eastern European nationalities? I know non-Italians cannot be made. But any of them became influenced within the mob lines?

Marat Balagula.

Tommy DelGiorno was half polish in his mother's side and was made, but he hid his polish ethnicity from the mob.

Per the testimony of Anthony Casso: https://books.google.ie/books?id=-r...&q=vic%20amuso%20russian&f=false

Casso mentions a Michael Markowitz who was associated with the Colombo Family; he was rubbed out in 1989 after cooperating with the Feds: https://www.nytimes.com/1989/05/03/nyregion/mob-linked-businessman-killed-in-brooklyn.html

Phillip Moskowitz was another highly connected Russian mobster who was murdered in the late 80s to prevent cooperation with the authorities: http://mafianj.com/newjerseymafia/?tag=phillip-moskowitz

Essentially the gas tax scams of the 80s brought the Russian and Italian mobs together and made them business partners. The Bonanno Family was left out of the loop.

Zef Mustafa was an Albanian Gambino associate
