V-Europe

We are honored to announce the official launch of the United Nations Victims of Terrorism Associations Network (VoTAN), an initiative by the United Nations Office of Counter-Terrorism (UNOCT). V-Europe has proudly participated in this network since its inception, working alongside global partners to support victims of terrorism and advocate for their rights.

Terrorism knows no borders—neither should our compassion and support. Stockholm's new memorial "Fredad plats/Sanctuary" honors victims like Maïlys Dereymaeker, reminding us of the need for cross-border solidarity. #Drottninggatan #VictimSupport #VEurope https://zurl.co/8ejNx

Today V-Europe commemorates the victims of the terrorist attack at the Bardo National Museum on 18 March 2015, where 22 people lost their lives. Our thoughts are with them and their loved ones as we stand in solidarity, honouring their memory and reaffirming our commitment to justice, support and the fight against terrorism. We will never forget.

On this day, we remember the victims of the Rue de Dries shooting (https://zurl.co/THnqX) that occurred on March 15, 2016. V-Europe stands in solidarity with those who were injured and with all those still carrying the emotional weight of that tragic day. We also extend our deepest gratitude and recognition to the police forces who continue their efforts in the fight against terrorism. We acknowledge the pain and uncertainty such events bring, and want you to know that V-Europe remains there to support you. You can always reach out: www.v-europe.org

We stand in solidarity with the victims of today's tragic knife attack in Mulhouse. Our thoughts are with the family of the deceased and the injured police officers. Violence has no place in our society, and we must unite against such acts of terror. #Mulhouse #StopTerrorism

In response to the tragic knife attack in Villach, Austria, where a 14-year-old boy lost his life and several others were injured, V-Europe expresses our heartfelt condolences to the victims and their families. This random act of violence is a painful reminder of the need for compassion and unity in our communities. We stand in solidarity with those affected and encourage everyone to come together in support and understanding during this difficult time. Our thoughts are with the victims and their loved ones. 💔 #Empathy #Solidarity #VEurope

Today, we are deeply moved by the tragic news from Munich, where a car drove into a group of strikers. Once again, we are confronted with an act of violence that is unacceptable and leaves no one untouched. Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, and everyone affected during these difficult times. We hope for a swift recovery for the injured and stand in solidarity with all those impacted by this horrific act. Let us continue to strive together for a world free of violence and hate. #VEurope #Solidarity #Munich

Après huit années de travail intensif pour la création d’un Fonds de garantie pour les victimes du terrorisme – à travers, entre autres, des témoignages devant la Commission d’enquête parlementaire, des interventions au Parlement, des rappels répétés lors des préparatifs, et un soutien lors des procès dans des villes comme Bamako, Barcelone, Bruxelles, Paris, Stockholm et New York – ainsi que des conseils aux ministères, des recours devant le Conseil d’État et l’élaboration de bonnes pratiques au niveau européen, nous constatons avec satisfaction que ce fonds a été inclus dans l’accord de gouvernement. V-Europe accueille chaleureusement cette étape importante, ainsi que les autres mesures visant à soutenir les victimes, à prévenir la radicalisation et à lutter contre le terrorisme. Nous nous réjouissons de collaborer avec le nouveau gouvernement pour continuer à œuvrer en faveur d’une reconnaissance juste des victimes, de leur rétablissement et de leur réintégration dans la société. Nous souhaitons également contribuer ensemble à la cohésion sociale et à une société plus sûre. #BartDeWever #AnneliesVerlinden #BernardQuintin #MaximePrévot #VincentVanPeteghem #TheoFrancken

Na acht jaar intensief werken aan de oprichting van een Garantiefonds voor slachtoffers van terreur – via onder andere getuigenissen in de Parlementaire Onderzoekscommissie, tussenkomsten in het Parlement, herhaalde herinneringen tijdens de voorbereidingen, en ondersteuning bij processen in steden zoals Bamako, Barcelona, Brussel, Parijs, Stockholm en New York – evenals adviezen aan ministeries, beroepsprocedures bij de Raad van State en de ontwikkeling van goede praktijken op EU-niveau, zien we met voldoening dat dit fonds is opgenomen in het regeerakkoord. V-Europe verwelkomt deze belangrijke stap van harte, samen met de andere maatregelen ter ondersteuning van slachtoffers, de preventie van radicalisering en de strijd tegen terrorisme. We kijken ernaar uit om, in samenwerking met de nieuwe regering, verder te bouwen aan een correcte erkenning van slachtoffers, hun herstel en re-integratie in de samenleving. Daarnaast willen we gezamenlijk bijdragen aan sociale cohesie en een veiligere maatschappij. #BartDeWever #AnneliesVerlinden #BernardQuintin #MaximePrévot #VincentVanPeteghem #TheoFrancken
