Summary/Abstract: This paper explores some aspects of the supranational criminal protection against terrorism. It begins with an outline of the traditional approach to the issue, namely from the perspective of the international criminal law, which considers terrorism as a crime of an international character. Special attention is paid to the basic characteristics of the Criminal law of the European Union as the new and most rapidly expanding field of European law. The position of the EU legislature in the area of combatting terrorism is examined. Finally, the challenges posed to national criminal law are defined.
