http://www.tkb.org/NewsStory.jsp?storyID=63474 Bulgarian police official warns terrorists could target the Balkans The Associated Press, Apr. 14, 2005 SOFIA, Bulgaria Bulgaria's top police official warned on Thursday that pockets of Islamic fundamentalism in the Balkans are creating a favorable environment for the establishment of terrorist groups. Speaking at a regional police anti-crime conference, Gen. Boiko Borisov urged for "joint efforts to fight the global terrorism network." He warned that despite the elimination of several al-Qaida bases the level of threat remains high. "The Balkans as a part of Europe are a potential target, a possible ground for terrorists," he said, without mentioning any specific threats. "Our countries are backing the anti-terror coalition and this makes them possible targets of terrorist attacks." "At different places around the globe exist "sleeper" bases," Borisov said. He urged for international efforts to limit terrorists' access to financing and to enhance security of transport and border control. Senior police officials from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro, Turkey, Croatia and Germany participated in the conference. ------------------------ Yahoo!
