Context

This event is a highlight of our series on this on counter terrorism. Previous speakers included Peter Bergen (New America Foundation), George Joffe (Cambridge), Tariq Ramadan (Oxford), Magnus Ranstorp (Swedish National Defence College), Max-Peter Ratzel (Director of Europol), and William Shapcott (Director of SitCen). Counter terrorism remains a priority in EU justice & home affairs cooperation, as illustrated by the averted bomb plots in mid 2007 (Glasgow, London) and September (Frankfurt), and a high-profile arrests throughout Europe (UK, Germany, Denmark and Italy).
