The threat is not important in itself. The supporters of terrorism are too few and too marginalized to be considered a serious public security threat.

Terrorism is an endemic phenomenon in Greece.

Turkey recorded the largest fall in terrorism across Europe last year, a global terrorism ranking list said.

Of them, eight percent are classified as high-level crime groups, Rebic added.

According to him, the remaining 92 percent are classified as low and medium groups and as such do not pose a significant threat to Serbia's security.

Turkey will continue its counter-terrorism activities in Syria, according to a declaration issued by the country's National Security Council (MGK) on Sept. 20.

The Turkish Parliament has begun deliberations on a legislative bill that introduces new measures in the fight against terrorism in a bid not to create any deficiencies after lifting the state of emergency that has been in place since July 2016. 

On 9 and 10 July 2018, Europol's Internet Referral Unit (EU IRU) organised the tenth joint Referral Action Days with colleagues from specialized units from Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. This time the campaign was focused on different platforms belonging to Google and was attended by representatives of the company.

On 20 June 2018, the Council, following a provisional agreement with the European Parliament, agreed on new rules concerning the mutual recognition of freezing and confiscation orders. The new regulation aims to ensure the effective freezing and confiscation of criminal assets across the EU.

,,About 30,000 people in Europe are potentially part of terrorist communities'', Rob Wainwright Europol director told bTV. According to him, Bulgaria and all countries in Europe are threatened by terrorism.
