Terrorism, let there be no doubt, is the dictatorship of this century, and it should be fought unstintingly.
In recent years, events have led to a gradual awakening, which this debate shows has neither worn off nor lost its focus.
We know that there is a threat against our way of life, our society and the freedom we enjoy. We are also aware that our greatest virtues – such as freedom, respect for the individual and solidarity – can lead to weaknesses in the fight against terrorism. It is therefore essential that we strike a constant balance between what we must sacrifice and the elements that are indispensable to preserving our way of life.
In this context, in light of the progress that has been made, the widespread commitment, the difficulties encountered, the need for amendments and the warnings of the shortcomings that still exist, the debate on this and the other reports in the plenary session should be addressed from a similar perspective. After all, there has been a clear sign here that there is awareness; awareness of the risk, awareness of the need for action to be taken and of what cannot and should not be demanded, even in the name of the fight against terrorism."@en1
