lpv:translated text	"Thank you, Mr President, the date of 11 September has made it even clearer that a tough battle against terrorism and organised crime is what is needed in order to guarantee the free area of peace and security in the Member States. Via the present proposals, the Council is making a commendable effort to contribute to this by making rapid extradition possible. However, I do have some concerns. In my view, a restricted, positive list of criminal offences should fall under the European arrest warrant. The criterion is whether there is a European or international definition, as in the case of terrorism, for example. However, the list which is now before the Council contains many criminal offences for which there are no European definitions available. The nature of the listed offences is diverse. They cover fraud, rape and manslaughter. What is the cross-border aspect of these offences? Do the existing extradition treaties not offer sufficient scope in this area? However, in order to prevent this welcome initiative from being shelved again, now that a difficult compromise has been struck, I would give it the benefit of doubt."@en1
