"The internal security of the EU and its security policies are priority areas in the policies of the EU. The Lisbon Treaty established the foundations for the development of a security programme. This is divided between the European Union and the Member States, whereby it is subject to democratic oversight at both EU and national levels. The protection of the lives and safety of EU citizens is paramount. Security in the European Union must continue to be strengthened through effective measures to combat serious and organised crime, terrorism, radicalism and extremism, cybercrime and other threats. I consider it essential to strengthen the management of the external borders and increase resilience to natural disasters as well as to man-made disasters. All security measures must also be in accordance with the obligations of the EU in the field of fundamental rights and they must be focused on targeted enforcement of the law; it is essential to prove their ability to reduce crime rates and prevent terrorist attacks. It is also particularly important to create prevention mechanisms and mechanisms that enable us to detect signs of threats with sufficient advance notice. The recent Arab Spring events provide evidence that the Union’s internal security is inextricably linked to the security situation in countries that are located in its neighbourhood. It is therefore necessary to develop a synergy between the EU, third countries and international organisations such as NATO and the OSCE. We should also take a comprehensive approach towards the European Security Strategy."@en1
