The European Union can make a difference in the crackdown on drug trafficking by using its regulatory power to force encrypted communication companies to cooperate with law enforcement, Belgium’s National Drug Commissioner, Ine Van Wymersch, has told Euronews' interview programme 12 Minutes With.
“Where we need more pressure from the European institutions is to put these big companies that are bringing their encrypted communication tools to our market under pressure: to force them to collaborate with law enforcement,” Van Wymersch said.
