The European Union has a range of instruments for combating organised crime.

Fight against trafficking in human beings

Following the Tampere European Council, Member States studied the possibility of creating joint investigative teams, possibly with the support of Europol, to fight drug trafficking, trafficking in human beings and terrorism. In this perspective, an operational task force allows experience sharing and practice and information improvement.

Cooperation between Member States in the fight against drugs has developed with the reinforcement of the Community’s powers achieved with the Treaty on European Union.
