Sažetak

The European Union - today’s most powerful economic integration which has ambitions of becoming a powerfull political integration – is faced with the problem of terrorism. After the terrorist attack on Madrid in 2004, initiatives were undertaken within the EU to increase cooperation in the fight against terrorism. However, once again the issue arose and the conflict of national sovereignty with transnational interests. Thus, to this day, a satisfactory solution has not been found. EU member countries that have already faced problems of terrorism approach this issue each in its own manner and attempt to solve it as a national problem (Spain, Great Britain, Italy, France etc.). Political integration has homogenous policies – which include a security policy as well as a counterterrorism policy. Despite the fact that a great number of EU member countries have been exposed to terrorist attacks, the EU, for now, has not achieved this goal.
