"Although terrorism is not a recent phenomenon, in recent decades, it has taken on new forms and terrorist networks have become more complex in terms of structure, means and financing, rendering the terrorist threat more complex, and its consequences more devastating.
Terrorism is a phenomenon that is constantly changing and must be combated properly, with a focus on four essential aspects: prevention, protection, pursuit and response. Thus, counter-terrorism policies both at EU level and in the individual Member States must also be able to keep abreast of this constant change, while maintaining full respect for fundamental rights.
A coherent approach is needed in the EU and its Member States in relation to initiatives adopted in the area of internal security, in particular, terrorism and organised crime, so that any remaining gaps and any overlapping or duplication of counter-terrorism actions and instruments may be identified. Terrorism can potentially affect the security of the entire Union, so the EU and its respective institutions have the responsibility of combating it and ensuring respect for the values on which our free, open and democratic societies are based – values that enable every citizen to live in safety and without fear."@en1
