Internal security objectives gain an increasing influence on the foreign policy of the European Union and it has thus become essential to understand the external role and activities of one of the most significant actors in the European internal security regime - Europol. Looking at three topical issues related to Europol's external activities, this article is an attempt to assess the impact of Europol on the EU's external policy and to sketch some of the dynamics underpinning the development of the external dimension of Justice and Home Affairs. | ||
