Brussels Attack Lapses Acknowledged by Belgian Officials
Keywords:
Tags:
Belgium's justice and interior ministers acknowledge the error in not taking action after being alerted by Turkish authorites of Islamic radicals suspected to be a serious terrorist threat. Turkey's president raised this issue in the media about the Belgian officials failure to act on a Turkish request to take into custody a radical arrested in Turkey for trying to enter Syria. The individual was one of two brothers who were suicide bombers in the attack at the Brussels airport and subway in March 2016.
Lack of coordination between European union nations and with Turkey on intelligence and security- lessons from the Brussels airport/subway attacks in March 2016
03/23/2016
Hillary Clinton points to the lack of adequate coordination between EU nations and with Turkey on security as a serious problem in an address at Stanford University following the Brussels attacks at the airport and busy subway station. Turkey has knowledge about one of the suicide bombers before the attack but information is not shared with EU authorites because of lack of coordination and no mechanism for this. Clinton points out that there is more coordination between the U.S. and an EU nation than between EU nations, and it is easier for the U.S. to get flight manifests than for other EU nations to share this with each other.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
