(MLKP militants in Istanbul, Turkey) Overview and Analysis The European Union Terrorism Situation and Trend Report 2021 (TE-SAT) was published by Europol on June 22nd. The current threat profile based upon Europol’s assessment of terrorist activity in Europe throughout 2020 looks much as it did in the previous two years’ TE-SAT reports, with an increased emphasis on right-wing extremism.
