The Italians are now resigned to corner street dealing and hijacking. Small time stuff.
Russians are engaged in the more profitable crime rackets....
in the indictments you posted russians were involved in extortions, gambling etc, the same things of italian mafia
but italian mafia is bigger in the states so it makes more money
russian mafia doesn't own banks and oil companies in the states, that's in russia, like italian mafia in italy wosn tons of legal enterprises
so i don't think russian mafia makes more money, probably the italians make
also i see georgian clans in europe countries (the most powerful among russian oc) are often involved in bulglaries, that it is not a so lucrative business
