"Mr President, organised crime is one of the greatest dangers which mankind is being called upon today to address. The opening up of borders and markets, the improved transport networks and progress in communications have, unfortunately, also become a gateway for the establishment and organisation of international crime organisations. These criminal activities urgently need to be suppressed. However, this does not imply that we need to handle the question by imposing stricter measures which will call the political and other freedoms of innocent citizens into question. In general terms, the present proposal takes a stricter, but not necessarily a more effective approach to the problem. The definitions of organised crime are broader, the criteria are more relaxed and, for the sake of combating it, the protection of the individual rights of the innocent and the guilty are jeopardised. To conclude, we need to stamp on organised crime, but not on the basis of the recent models being promoted, such as the action plan on terrorism. We need to combat organised crime, but not to safeguard order by dismantling the body of our individual and political freedoms."@en1
