✍️ Eurojust is stepping up our cooperation with Latin America!   At our headquarters today, prosecutors general from 5 Latin American countries – Bolivia, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador & Peru – and Eurojust President Ladislav Hamran attended the signing of the arrangements. Commissioner Didier Reynders, representatives from EL PAcCTO, and the prosecutor general of Panama were also present.   ⚖️ The new arrangements will strengthen our cooperation in priority crime areas that impact societies on both sides of the Atlantic, including drug & arms trafficking, money laundering & cybercrime. A similar working arrangement was signed with Panama earlier this year, which already increased the use of Eurojust’s judicial cooperation tools by Panamanian authorities.   Learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dqazva9Q

At Eurojust, we see the number of files submitted to the Core International Crimes Evidence Database (#CICED) growing: 📂 2 000+ files 🌍 14 countries To prove the scale and systemic nature of Russia’s crimes in Ukraine, it is crucial that prosecution strategies rely on large sets of evidence.
