In response to these expectations the European Union has undertaken series of measures – tightening of control at external borders, improvement of police and judicial cooperation in the searching and prosecution of suspected persons, interruption of cash flows for terrorists, prevention of radicalization and combating organized crime. Security of Europe is a common priority of the European institutions. The EU strategy against terrorism has four main streams: prevention, protection, prosecution and reaction. The European Commission applies the 2015-2020 European Security Program aimed at promotion of cooperation between the member states.
