lpv:translated text	"The harmonisation of criminal law continues to be a sensitive issue. While the Treaty of Lisbon communitarised this matter, to the extent that the Treaty permits the EU to make use of it to strengthen the implementation of its policies, criminal law remains at the heart of national sovereignty and the diversity of national laws does not make the task easy. However, a step must be made in this direction to respond to the concerns of European citizens who do not want the perpetrators of crime to be able to hide beyond borders or exploit the differences between national legal systems. We must define the minimal rules concerning offences, judicial competences and sanctions. The goal must, above all, be to favour the application of the principle of mutual recognition in practice. Finally, any exploitation of criminal law, by which some would have us believe that the introduction of new rules would enable crime to be beaten, must be avoided. It would merely be for show and would disregard the fact that other tools exist and should be implemented."@en1
