A senior EU anti-terrorism official has warned that al-Qaeda may carry out attacks in Europe and Africa to prove that it’s still the leader of the global Jihad.
European Union Counter-Terrorism Coordinator Gilles de Kerchove said Saturday that al-Qaeda may attempt to carry out a new terror attack in Europe to demonstrate that it still possesses the “leadership of global Jihad.”
“There is a fierce competition between al-Qaeda and Daesh [the Arabic acronym for ISIL] over the leadership of global jihad; we may at some stage see al-Qaeda launching an attack in Europe or Africa to show that they are still relevant,” de Kerchove stated, speaking at the Brussels Forum, an annual policy conference, on Saturday.
De Kerchove noted that the terror threat to Europe and the United States has become “much more complex” since the attacks of September 11, 2001. At that time, “we had an organization, al-Qaeda, structured like a multinational company.”
