Protecting passengers and goods transport in Europe

How easy is it to get into Frankfurt airport with a bomb? An EU inspector tests security by seeing if he can smuggle in a fake device. Following the September 11 attacks, the EU put in place a raft of regulations to tighten up security at ports and airports. Unannounced visits from inspectors are regularly carried out to make sure people aren't slacking. Meanwhile, in the port of Rotterdam the latest technology is being used to protect passengers. The countries of the EU are taking no chances.

Do we have a real problem with terrorism in the EU? I think our most basic rights are being reduced to ash... In this way, there's a proposition of the comission to get 19 data groups of all the passengers that would take a plane inside Europe... This data would also be sent to another countries...

Terrorists and organised criminals travel to plan and execute their activities. Law enforcement authorities need tools to investigate and prevent their networks. The Council of Ministers proposes that air carriers provide 19 data of passengers on flights to and from the EU, excluding intra-EU or domestic flights, to specific Passenger Information Units (PIU) in each Member State. These PIU's will analyse and share the results of these assessments with other PIU's when necessary.

@hc4lifey69 however it is not a right but a privilege to fly.

[dominican1000]

No. The real problem is that people sometimes get to nagative to resolve a problem and waist there time in other less important things...

I'd like to thank your reply. Anyway i can understand how the parliament condemned on resolutions of 5-9-2001 and 7-11-2002 the existance of the echelon network adducing the contravention of warranties on legal protection of the intimacy of persons and 5 years later another institution propose this kind of intromissions. If i'm not wrong, it's even proposed to get data like gender, languages, etc of UNDERAGE people... Do they really represent a danger to the security of our community?

well, the fact that there hasn't been any terrorist attack in Italy, unlike Spain and England, proves the opposite

Great video. I like the idea of EUtube. But what if a terrorist has a passport like the undercover-inspector at 1:30?

Your comments seem to be grounded in sterotyped North/South prejudices. This is quite far from the European motto "united in diversity". European integration will not progress on approaches like yours.
