(3) International cooperation is essential in the fight against terrorism
International terrorist organizations such as Al-Qaeda take full advantage of the characteristics of modern society, including international transportation networks and advanced information and communications technology, thus carrying out operations across national borders. Therefore, it is important that all countries interactively cooperate with each other in a wide range of fields to overcome their vulnerability against terrorist attacks, and deny the terrorists safe havens and means for their activities. It is essential to strengthen international cooperation, since no single state can tackle terrorism alone.
(4) Counter-terrorism capacity building assistance to countries in need
Some countries may have the political will to fight against terrorism but not necessarily have sufficient counter-terrorism capacity. Japan extends counter-terrorism capacity building assistance to those countries in need of such assistance.
