In his opening remarks, H.E. Gustavo Meza-Cuadra, Chair of the Counter-Terrorism Committee, stressed the need to coordinate efforts at all levels to effectively respond to the challenges posed by the links between the two areas. He also highlighted the importance “to address these matters in a more coordinated manner at the law enforcement and prosecutorial levels as we have seen with the creation of joint investigative units and prosecution authorities.”

H.E. Dian Triansyah Djani, Chair of the ISIL (Da’esh) and Al-Qaida Sanctions Committee, as well as of the Taliban Sanctions Committee, stated that there is a “need to develop a more structured cooperation and information sharing to enable us to address these challenges in an effective way.”

The main purpose of the meeting was to address regional specificities, as well as strategies, responses, and lessons learned in addressing the linkages between terrorism and organized crime, and underline the need for strengthened domestic, regional, and international cooperation in this area. Interactions and synergies between terrorists and criminal groups may take a number of forms, including simple coexistence in the same territory, the development of ad hoc alliances based on a common interest, and the convergence or merging of activities.
