Den 6. september 2001, nogle få dage før World Trade Center sprang i luften, vedtog Parlamentet to henstillinger, nemlig den europæiske arrestordre og den fælles definition af terrorhandlinger, som Rådet kunne vedtage i december samme år, fordi vi, Europa-Parlamentet, havde gjort vores arbejde i tide.
On 6 September 2001, just days before the attack on the Twin Towers, two recommendations were adopted here: the arrest warrant and the common definition of the crime of terrorism, which were able to be adopted by the Council in December of that same year thanks to the fact that we, the European Parliament, had done our work on time.
