German Police Prepare for UEFA EURO 2024 with International Cooperation
Comprehensive Security Operation for Major Football Event
International Police Cooperation Center (IPCC) Tasked with Coordinating Multi-Nation Effort
As Germany gears up for UEFA EURO 2024, it is collaborating with international law enforcement agencies to ensure a safe and secure tournament. The International Police Cooperation Center (IPCC), a key component of this effort, will coordinate the work of over 300 security experts from participating nations.
The IPCC was established in 2008 and has a track record of successful cooperation in major sporting events. It provides a platform for information sharing, coordinated operations, and joint training between national police forces. For EURO 2024, the IPCC will focus on ensuring effective policing and crowd management, including anti-terrorism measures and combating potential threats.
German Interior Minister Nancy Faeser emphasized the importance of the IPCC in the preparation for EURO 2024. She stated that the conference "lays the foundation for successful police work in the context of UEFA EURO 2024, ensuring the safety of visitors and the smooth running of the tournament."
The IPCC is actively engaging with all participating countries to ensure seamless cooperation. The Center will coordinate a comprehensive security operation that encompasses preemptive planning, risk assessment, and real-time response during the tournament. The goal is to prevent incidents, respond effectively to any threats, and maintain public safety.
The collaboration between Germany and the international law enforcement community through the IPCC is a testament to the shared commitment to ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for EURO 2024 attendees. By working together, they aim to provide a secure environment for both the players and spectators while promoting the spirit of sportsmanship and fair play.
