Germany, Britain, Netherlands Agree to Enhance Anti-Terror Cooperation

The governments of Germany, Britain and the Netherlands pledged to increase cooperation on countering Islamic extremism, at the opening of a joint symposium. "It's clear that we share a common threat that demands a united response, even if the specific nature of that threat differs from country to country," British Interior Minister Jacqui Smith said. "We can learn a lot from each other, not only in how we can counter the threat, but also how we can coordinate our actions." The symposium, organized by the German Interior Ministry in association with the British and Dutch embassies in Germany, aims to find unified approaches to the problems posed by Islamist extremism in Europe.
