Article summary

The European Union Agency for Criminal Justice Co-operation (EUROJUST) has welcomed the mandate received by the European Commission to open negotiations on international agreements with 13 third countries for co-operation with EUROJUST. As a result of the mandate, EUROJUST can begin to negotiate agreements for information exchange between the EU and Algeria, Argentina, Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Tunisia and Turkey. EUROJUST hopes that the conclusion of agreements with these third countries will strengthen transnational judicial co-operation and ‘widen the international scope in the fight against cross-border crime’.
