 European Union states, including Austria, have expressed security concerns and fear of terrorist attacks after last Friday's arrest campaign in Netherlands against who the Hague called terrorists. Austria Press Agency (APA) cited European judicial affairs commissioner as saying that Netherlands' arrest campaign have revealed that terrorism remained a threat on EU's member states.

In the last second, Netherlands' security forces prevented a terrorist plan to attack a group of Dutch politicians, government buildings and the Dutch intelligence. The security forces arrested six young men between the ages of 16-18 in addition to a 24-year-old woman among the terrorist cell. Shortly after the arrests, Dutch Interior and Kingdom Relations Minister Johan Remkes said that he would order more security measures for institutions and senior state officials. |
