what are the measures taken to curb terrorism
Answers
Answer:
measures to prevent new attacks run from more thorough checks at Europe’s borders, to better police and judicial cooperation on tracing suspects and pursuing perpetrators, cutting the financing of terrorism, tackling organised crime, addressing radicalisation and others.
Improving EU border controls
In order to safeguard security within the Schengen zone, systematic checks at the EU's external borders on all people entering the EU - including EU citizens - were introduced in April 2017.
To record the movements of non-EU citizens across the Schengen area and speed up controls, a new entry and exit registration system was agreed by Parliament and EU ministers in November 2017 and should be operational from 2020.
Travellers from non-EU countries who do not require a visa to enter the EU will be screened through the ETIAS System (European Travel Information and Authorisation), which should be operational from 2021.

Temporary border controls
To prevent terrorists from circulating freely within the EU, several countries have introduced temporary controls at their borders. Parliament sees these internal border checks as unjustified and a danger for the Schengen area and wants to allow them only as a measure of last resort.

Securing external borders
The European Border and Coast Guard should have a standing corps of 10,000 border guards by 2027 to effectively secure Europe’s 13,000 km of external land borders and nearly 66,000 km at sea. The new standing corps could, at the request of an EU country, carry out border control and migration management as well as fight cross-border crime.

Stopping foreign terrorist fighters
Since 2015, there has been an increase in religiously-inspired terrorist attacks in the EU and around 5000 individuals from the EU are believed to have travelled to conflict areas in Syria and Iraq to join jihadist terrorist groups.
In order to criminalise acts such as undertaking training or travelling for terrorist purposes, as well as organising or facilitating such travel, Europe put in place EU-wide legislation on terrorism that, together with new controls at external borders, will help to tackle the foreign fighter phenomenon.
The number of foreign terrorist fighters has dropped significantly since 2015. As IS gets weaker, it has been urging its followers to carry out lone actor type attacks in their home countries, rather than travel to the so-called caliphate, according to Europol.

Making use of air passenger data
Airlines operating flights to and from the EU are obliged to hand national authorities the data of their passengers such as names, travel dates, itinerary and payment method.
This so-called PNR data is used to prevent, detect, investigate and prosecute terrorist offences and serious crimes. Negotiations took more than five years and Parliament insisted on safeguards for sensitive data (revealing racial origin, religion, political opinion, health or sexual orientation) and data protection.
