Two and half years after 9-11 EU threatens economic sanctions against countries helping terrorist
The Scotsman:
"EU foreign ministers today threatened to withdraw economic support for countries if they fall short in the fight against terrorism.
"The ministers endorsed a draft declaration which called counter-terrorism 'a key element of political dialogue' with other countries, and officials said aid and trade could be affected if the fight against terrorism was considered insufficient.
"The declaration, agreed in Brussels, says the EU would add counter-terrorism concerns into 'all relevant external assistance programs.' "
Does this include Iran's support for Hizballah? How about Hamas?
