"The European Union has been a greater target for, and victim of, terrorism in the 21st century. The severe terrorist attacks on EU soil since the 9/11 attacks in the United States, including the 2004 terrorist attacks in Madrid and the 2005 attacks in London, have had a significant impact on the sense of common security among EU citizens. Terrorism is certainly not a recent phenomenon; however, in recent decades, it has taken new forms such as cyber-terrorism, and terrorist networks have become more complex in structure, means and financing, thus making the terrorist threat all the more difficult to fight. The Europol 2011 report indicates that the threat of terrorist attacks in the EU remains serious, and that the links between terrorism and organised crime are growing.
In light of these facts, I think that the prevention, tracking and prosecution of terrorist activities are critical policies at EU level and must be part of a systematic approach based not on emergency norms, but on a coherent strategy that promotes dialogue, tolerance and understanding among different cultures, civilisations and religions."@en1
