Europe Resolves to Fight Against Terrorism

European Parliament President David Sassoli led a minute of silence to pay tribute to all victims of terrorism, at the opening of the session on November 11.

Expressing his condolences to the friends and families of the victims of the terrorist attacks in Dresden, Conflans-Sainte-Honorine, Nice and Vienna, President Sassoli stressed that every attack represents an attack on the EU’s fundamental values, freedom of expression, religion, and an open and inclusive society.

What Is Terrorism?

While there is no specific definition of terrorism, it is only a form of political system clandestinely run by professional politicians of the world. In today’s criminalized political environment all across the world, it is not possible for politicians to survive if they are not corrupt. Thus, political corruption is the main reason for increasing terrorism in the world and politicians are secretly running organized terrorism networks.

It is our shared responsibility to fight all types of extremism, said the President, adding that MEPs stand united against violence and hate.
