(10) Terrorist financing should be punishable in the Member States and cover the financing of terrorist acts, the financing of a terrorist group, as well as other offences related to terrorist activities, such as the recruitment and training, or travel for terrorist purposes, with a view to disrupting the support structures facilitating the commission of terrorist offences. Aiding and abetting or attempting terrorist financing should also be punishable.

Proposal for a directive
Recital 17 a (new)
Recital 17 a (new)
(17a) Punitive sanctions should be complemented by long-term policies to prevent the radicalisation and recruitment of citizens of the Union by terrorist organisations. Strategies on social inclusion, education, employment and housing and policies tackling discrimination and exclusion to stop vulnerable individuals joining violent extremist organisations are crucial to countering terrorism. Member States should also share good practices on the setting-up of de-radicalisation structures to prevent citizens of the Union and third- country nationals legally residing in the Union from leaving the Union or to control their return to it and their judicial approach in this regard notably through Eurojust. They should share such good practices not only among each other but also with third countries which have already acquired experience and achieved positive results in this area.
