Combating Maritime Terrorism Under the International Law and European Law

Maritime terrorism is a form of contemporary terrorism and it presents enormous danger to a human life, to the safety of navigation and to the marine environment. This article considers briefly relevant international and European documents regulating this issue. Although they are all introduced more than a decade ago, they represent suitable legal basis to meet modern challenges to the security at sea. Authors point out their most important solutions but also the problem which rises from the fact that maritime terrorism doesn’t have official definition. Authors indicate that maritime terrorism cannot be suppressed simply by adequate regulations. In order to achieve this goal all interested and threatened parties must collaborate and must strengthen efforts concerning the extradition and prosecution of terrorist as well as inhibit suspicious countries and organization to finance terrorist groups.
