Following the attacks of 11 September 2001, the European Commission implemented new common regulations to deal with terrorist threats at airports and ports. At the same time, it began community security inspections at these places. This video shows an unannounced visit of an inspector from the European Commission at Frankfurt airport, where he tries to enter with a (fake) bomb. In Rotterdam, port authorities and transport companies have increased security at the terminals. Fences have been built, surveillance cameras have been installed, and staff and containers are being checked. Faced with the internationalisation of terrorism, Europe is indeed playing the card of prevention.

You 00:00:00
Frankfurt Germany 10 a.m. While certain people take a coffee break others prepare more explosive cocktails 00:00:12
We're now heading for the airport this man's goal is to enter the security area with a bomb 00:00:20
he passes himself off as an airline employee at the airport security screening point not 00:00:33
only passengers are checked all staff must also undergo checks this is a direct result 00:00:41
of European regulations designed to deal with terrorist threats this man is an inspector 00:00:48
from the European Commission the bomb is an imitation and is used to test the vigilance 00:01:00
of airport security staff when checking airline employees staff screening is a very useful tool 00:01:04
to add an additional security layer which avoids the introduction of prohibited articles by staff 00:01:08
members into the security restricted area the inspector continues his check of the airport 00:01:15
here at an entrance into the security area for authorized vehicles since the beginning of 2004 00:01:20
inspectors from the European Commission have been examining more than 30 airports a year in addition 00:01:27
to the regular inspections carried out by the member states the visits are always unannounced 00:01:32
the task of the inspectors is to point out the weaknesses in airport security and to help the 00:01:36
authorities concerned to correct them Europe has drawn lessons from the attacks of September 11th 00:01:40
2001 if there is a domain where it is necessary to act at the European level it is at the level of security 00:01:45
terrorists would be the first to draw from the weaknesses of the European mesh if they knew 00:01:51
that in a member state the security measures are not taken correctly they would quickly infiltrate 00:01:58
the point of Europe so we need high-level security standards and then we must 00:02:05
take good care of what we respect them that is why we do inspections to see if in the 00:02:11
airfields the security standards are well observed and not observed from time to time but observed 00:02:16
every day with the same rigor these new regulations also ensure the application of identical security 00:02:22
standards at all European airports on the tarmac the baggage handlers load and unload the aircraft 00:02:30
our undercover inspector verifies two things in particular first that baggage is not left 00:02:36
unattended as required by regulation and second that in this area access to aircraft is limited 00:02:43
only to authorize staff displaying badges no other person should be there demonstration 00:02:50
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah this type of airport inspection generally 00:03:00
takes place over one week the airport's vulnerable points are all examined closely especially the 00:03:19
security screening points for passengers as the European inspector explains this is your 00:03:25
screening point is definitely one of the critical areas to be looked at during an inspection at an 00:03:30
airport what is extremely important that not only those passengers that cause an alarm of the walks 00:03:35
metal detector a hand search but that there are technical or manual means in place to ensure a 00:03:42
random selection of those passengers that would not cause an alarm of the walks metal detector 00:03:48
these passengers still have to be hand search in order to find also non-metallic 00:03:53
prohibited article like for example explosives 00:03:57
this European regulation obliges the member states to adopt the same tighter national 00:04:06
security plans in this way the European Union answers terrorist threats in a unified manner 00:04:10
the aim is of course not to make security measures more burdensome for passengers but 00:04:16
rather to guarantee passengers the maximum protection against threats with other advantages 00:04:21
as well the advantage of this is that you do not only get a harmonization in the application of 00:04:27
the air traffic control regulations but that this guarantee and this harmonization also 00:04:36
allow for a one-stop security system what is the advantage of a one-stop security system 00:04:41
that means that you come to a very passenger-friendly state on our airports 00:04:48
where, for example, security measures such as booking that are made for passengers and 00:04:53
their luggage and hand luggage security measures taken at the departure airport 00:05:00
within Europe should not be repeated when a transfer is made to another flight 00:05:05
within Europe at a European airport Europe has adopted common aviation security 00:05:10
standards more secure air transport is good but other forms of transportation such as 00:05:17
maritime transport for example must also be considered in order to deal with terrorist 00:05:23
threats there will be a movement of a target movement of terrorist groups to which 00:05:27
we have already assisted we will perhaps attack an airport that will be hyper-secured but we will 00:05:34
attack suburban trains as it is done in Madrid as it is done in India where we will attack the 00:05:40
metro as it is done in London each mode of transport must in fact benefit from a real 00:05:45
safety but each mode of transport has its own constraints so on the maritime for example it 00:05:52
is important to know all the tracking know all the tracking of a container that left China 00:05:59
and that comes to Europe and for that we must link all the links of the chain all the actors of the 00:06:07
transport Rotterdam we are here at the port's coordination center the port has 80 kilometers 00:06:17
of wharves 85,000 ship movements per year 370 million tons of cargo and a container is moved 00:06:28
every six seconds along with airports ports are prime targets for terrorists there are three 00:06:35
reasons for this the first of course is the fact that when touching an airport an airplane or a 00:06:43
port we can make a maximum of victims and it is sought today by terrorists the second reason 00:06:47
is that by the destruction of equipment or by the interruption of activity we will create a 00:06:52
significant economic damage sometimes very important and the third reason is symbolic 00:06:57
we touch the freedom to circulate the freedom to travel which is extremely important in 00:07:01
modern society and obviously we will shock society if we attack the airport or the port 00:07:06
it has been proven and very clear that maritime transport is very vulnerable to attacks and the 00:07:10
world depends on maritime transport so not only the port of Rotterdam but hold the maritime 00:07:20
industry knows very well that something had to be done and I think we are on the right track with 00:07:27
implementing of the ISPS code we we made a very important first step the objective of European 00:07:35
legislation and the ISPS code the International Ship and Port Facility Code implemented after 00:07:44
the September 11 attacks is to make ports less vulnerable community legislation made 00:07:49
this code mandatory and applicable to all types of international and national traffic 00:07:58
all players are concerned administrations ports companies and ships of all types be 00:08:05
they passenger or container ships these rules have been in effect since July 2004 in Europe 00:08:11
and everywhere in the world before 2004 there were a lot of ports where they had no fencing and 00:08:17
no security cameras and quite often no security patrols as well so there was free access to 00:08:24
anybody wanted to go on to these terminals could actually go there this is what port 00:08:29
terminals have looked like since 2004 following the implementation of the regulations no one 00:08:36
can walk around freely anymore fences surround the entire area surveillance cameras keep a close 00:08:42
watch over the sector and access control is systematic for both visitors and road haulers 00:08:47
they must register themselves via the computer terminals when they enter the terminal 00:08:52
