That is the very different problem of willingness to punish "system-critical" money launderers, versus the ability to detect rogue money launderers. Failure on one problem does not invalidate efforts on the other.

- xiphias2 5y agoI’m not so sure about that. In my country (Hungary) actually all big crimes have to go through the prime minister, he’s working together with the national bank and lots of other politicians, bankers and lawyers to steal the EU money that the country gets. Otherwise it’s a peaceful country (that is getting less peaceful as the government steals more of the economy).
