1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
You

2
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:20,400
Frankfurt Germany 10 a.m. While certain people take a coffee break others prepare more explosive cocktails

3
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:33,200
We're now heading for the airport this man's goal is to enter the security area with a bomb

4
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:41,960
he passes himself off as an airline employee at the airport security screening point not

5
00:00:41,960 --> 00:00:48,200
only passengers are checked all staff must also undergo checks this is a direct result

6
00:00:48,200 --> 00:01:00,080
of European regulations designed to deal with terrorist threats this man is an inspector

7
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:04,160
from the European Commission the bomb is an imitation and is used to test the vigilance

8
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,960
of airport security staff when checking airline employees staff screening is a very useful tool

9
00:01:08,960 --> 00:01:15,240
to add an additional security layer which avoids the introduction of prohibited articles by staff

10
00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:20,440
members into the security restricted area the inspector continues his check of the airport

11
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:27,000
here at an entrance into the security area for authorized vehicles since the beginning of 2004

12
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:32,080
inspectors from the European Commission have been examining more than 30 airports a year in addition

13
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:36,480
to the regular inspections carried out by the member states the visits are always unannounced

14
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,800
the task of the inspectors is to point out the weaknesses in airport security and to help the

15
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:45,840
authorities concerned to correct them Europe has drawn lessons from the attacks of September 11th

16
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,200
2001 if there is a domain where it is necessary to act at the European level it is at the level of security

17
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:58,320
terrorists would be the first to draw from the weaknesses of the European mesh if they knew

18
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:05,080
that in a member state the security measures are not taken correctly they would quickly infiltrate

19
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:11,400
the point of Europe so we need high-level security standards and then we must

20
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:16,480
take good care of what we respect them that is why we do inspections to see if in the

21
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:22,360
airfields the security standards are well observed and not observed from time to time but observed

22
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:30,400
every day with the same rigor these new regulations also ensure the application of identical security

23
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:36,680
standards at all European airports on the tarmac the baggage handlers load and unload the aircraft

24
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:43,560
our undercover inspector verifies two things in particular first that baggage is not left

25
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:50,000
unattended as required by regulation and second that in this area access to aircraft is limited

26
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:57,720
only to authorize staff displaying badges no other person should be there demonstration

27
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:19,520
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah this type of airport inspection generally

28
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:25,240
takes place over one week the airport's vulnerable points are all examined closely especially the

29
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,760
security screening points for passengers as the European inspector explains this is your

30
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,680
screening point is definitely one of the critical areas to be looked at during an inspection at an

31
00:03:35,680 --> 00:03:42,560
airport what is extremely important that not only those passengers that cause an alarm of the walks

32
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,360
metal detector a hand search but that there are technical or manual means in place to ensure a

33
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:53,440
random selection of those passengers that would not cause an alarm of the walks metal detector

34
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:57,640
these passengers still have to be hand search in order to find also non-metallic

35
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,400
prohibited article like for example explosives

36
00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:10,840
this European regulation obliges the member states to adopt the same tighter national

37
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,800
security plans in this way the European Union answers terrorist threats in a unified manner

38
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:21,920
the aim is of course not to make security measures more burdensome for passengers but

39
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:27,480
rather to guarantee passengers the maximum protection against threats with other advantages

40
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:36,600
as well the advantage of this is that you do not only get a harmonization in the application of

41
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:41,960
the air traffic control regulations but that this guarantee and this harmonization also

42
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:48,000
allow for a one-stop security system what is the advantage of a one-stop security system

43
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:53,560
that means that you come to a very passenger-friendly state on our airports

44
00:04:53,560 --> 00:05:00,240
where, for example, security measures such as booking that are made for passengers and

45
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:05,400
their luggage and hand luggage security measures taken at the departure airport

46
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,680
within Europe should not be repeated when a transfer is made to another flight

47
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:17,840
within Europe at a European airport Europe has adopted common aviation security

48
00:05:17,840 --> 00:05:23,240
standards more secure air transport is good but other forms of transportation such as

49
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:27,720
maritime transport for example must also be considered in order to deal with terrorist

50
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:34,600
threats there will be a movement of a target movement of terrorist groups to which

51
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:40,080
we have already assisted we will perhaps attack an airport that will be hyper-secured but we will

52
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:45,640
attack suburban trains as it is done in Madrid as it is done in India where we will attack the

53
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:52,120
metro as it is done in London each mode of transport must in fact benefit from a real

54
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:59,920
safety but each mode of transport has its own constraints so on the maritime for example it

55
00:05:59,920 --> 00:06:07,120
is important to know all the tracking know all the tracking of a container that left China

56
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:17,560
and that comes to Europe and for that we must link all the links of the chain all the actors of the

57
00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:28,160
transport Rotterdam we are here at the port's coordination center the port has 80 kilometers

58
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:35,360
of wharves 85,000 ship movements per year 370 million tons of cargo and a container is moved

59
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:43,120
every six seconds along with airports ports are prime targets for terrorists there are three

60
00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:47,560
reasons for this the first of course is the fact that when touching an airport an airplane or a

61
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:52,160
port we can make a maximum of victims and it is sought today by terrorists the second reason

62
00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:57,440
is that by the destruction of equipment or by the interruption of activity we will create a

63
00:06:57,440 --> 00:07:01,240
significant economic damage sometimes very important and the third reason is symbolic

64
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:06,000
we touch the freedom to circulate the freedom to travel which is extremely important in

65
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:10,360
modern society and obviously we will shock society if we attack the airport or the port

66
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:20,920
it has been proven and very clear that maritime transport is very vulnerable to attacks and the

67
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:27,040
world depends on maritime transport so not only the port of Rotterdam but hold the maritime

68
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:35,720
industry knows very well that something had to be done and I think we are on the right track with

69
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:44,240
implementing of the ISPS code we we made a very important first step the objective of European

70
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:49,960
legislation and the ISPS code the International Ship and Port Facility Code implemented after

71
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:58,560
the September 11 attacks is to make ports less vulnerable community legislation made

72
00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,080
this code mandatory and applicable to all types of international and national traffic

73
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:11,640
all players are concerned administrations ports companies and ships of all types be

74
00:08:11,640 --> 00:08:17,360
they passenger or container ships these rules have been in effect since July 2004 in Europe

75
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:24,000
and everywhere in the world before 2004 there were a lot of ports where they had no fencing and

76
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:29,760
no security cameras and quite often no security patrols as well so there was free access to

77
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:36,480
anybody wanted to go on to these terminals could actually go there this is what port

78
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:42,520
terminals have looked like since 2004 following the implementation of the regulations no one

79
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:47,800
can walk around freely anymore fences surround the entire area surveillance cameras keep a close

80
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,640
watch over the sector and access control is systematic for both visitors and road haulers

81
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:59,080
they must register themselves via the computer terminals when they enter the terminal
