The key role of the EU in the fight against terrorism is illustrated by its policies on combatting terrorism, preventing radicalisation and the recruitment of terrorists as set out in various legal instruments, notably its strategies and action plans to counter terrorism13. In this vein, in 2010 the first Internal Security Strategy of the EU (ISS) for the period 2010-2015 was initiated and updated with a new Strategy for the period 2015-2020 in accordance with the Council Conclusions of 16 June 201514. Among the legal instruments that exist, in addition to the Security Strategies, a series of programmes stand out, for example OISIN I (1997-2000)15 and OISIN II (2001-2002)16, which have been implemented with a view to promoting cooperation between the police and custom authorities of Member States. Moreover, we should not neglect to mention the well-known Stockholm Programme17, which has established the EU priorities for the Area of Freedom, Security and Justice over the period 2010-2014, building upon the achievements of the preceding programmes, those of Tampere18 and The Hague19. 12 Council of the European Union, Press Release.
