Fireplace Talk over Justitie & Binnenlandse Zaken en Politiesamenwerking: Europees Aanhoudingsbevel

 

 

This is the first event in the Fireplace Talks on the 30th Anniversary of the Maastricht Treaty, organised by UM Campus Brussels. It will focus on one of the policy fields laid out by the Maastricht Treaty and in particular - Justice & Home Affairs and Police Cooperation. The discussion will focus on the European Arrest Warrant, a simplified cross-border judicial surrender procedure, which is meant to prosecute or execute a custodial sentence or detention order. 

 

The event will be moderated by the Director of UM Campus Brussels, prof. Mariolina Eliantonio and the Associate Director, assistant prof. Paul Stephenson. 

 

 This will be a hybrid event with people having the opportunity to connect online or join in-person at the UM Campus Brussels.
