Radicalisation

Preventing radicalisation is a key step to preventing terrorist extremist and violence. We believe in the importance of tackling the root causes of radicalisation within our societies - causes such as poverty, social exclusion, racism and discrimination. We acknowledge that radicalisation can occur in any social, religious or ideological grouping, and believe that greater engagement, particularly with young people, is key to preventing it.

Roaming

Belonging to a network Provider that offers its services in multiple countries does not prevent you from paying their roaming fees. Roaming charges should be phased out: they are not compatible with the Internal Market principle and price setting stifles competition rather than promotes it. Therefore, LYMEC calls for eliminating roaming inside the European Union jointly within the European Economic Area, and with the rest of the European Free Trade Area members.

Rule of Law

The EU is not simply an economic union, but foremost a value union based on principles of human rights and the rule of law. Europe is facing several threats to its peace and security, and turning a blind eye on these cases is not accepted. We insist that those values should be upheld by the introduction of an EU mechanism on democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights, applicable to all member states. Countries which do not support these principles and share these values, cannot be part of the European Union.
