Direktor Slovenske obveščevalno-varnostne agencije (SOVA) in nacionalni koordinator za preprečevanje terorizma in nasilnega ekstremizma Joško Kadivnik se je danes sestal s koordinatorjem EU za boj proti terorizmu (EU CTC) Bartjanom Wegterjem.
Il Ministro dell’Interno Matteo Piantedosi ha incontrato oggi al Viminale il coordinatore antiterrorismo della UE Bartjan Wegter.
“La nostra comune agenda sui temi della sicurezza deve fare i conti con le perduranti situazioni di crisi ai confini dell’Europa. Solo attraverso una costante attività di condivisione delle informazioni sulle identità dei terroristi individuati saremo in grado di prevenire i movimenti transfrontalieri potenzialmente pericolosi e anticipare la minaccia” ha dichiarato il titolare del Viminale.
📍 Today, Eurojust President Michael Schmid welcomed EU Counter-Terrorism Coordinator @BWegter to Eurojust’s headquarters.
They discussed our shared goals and challenges, including ensuring accountability for Da'esh/ISIL crimes after UNITAD's closure.
Five years after the fall of the Islamic State caliphate in Iraq and Syria, the EU's anti-terrorism coordinator sees a more diffuse threat, coming from many different directions and spreading online. This is what Bartjan Wegter calls “mutant jihadism.”

At the beginning of the #HU24EU I visited Budapest where I met with MFA State Secretary for Security Policy Péter SZTÁRAY. I particularly underlined the importance of engaging with third countries on #CT if we are to effectively address our internal security threats.
#CT is high on the agenda of the #HU24EU.I met with the Minister of Interior Sándor PINTÉR and the TEK-Counter Terrorism Center. The Minister stressed the importance of strong external borders. I agreed, but also pointed to #terrorist_content_online that needs to be addressed.
The Strong Cities Network convened at the 2024 UN Summit last month, with the brand new launch of the North American hub, focusing on preventing and responding to hate and extremism.
Speaker Bartjan Wegter, EU Counter Terrorism Coordinator, emphasized the importance of implementing national and supernational counterterrorism strategies. Are you noticing a recurring (counterterrorism) theme here yet? 🧵/9

See my interview with France24 yesterday on securing the #OlympicGames, the changing nature of the #jihadist threat ('mutant jihadism’) and the role of the #online environment. Cooperation with the #privatesector and international partners is critical.
