Prüm Treaty

The Prüm Treaty is a European agreement among certain countries to cooperate more effectively in fighting crime. It allows the sharing of information and data, such as DNA profiles, fingerprints, and vehicle registration details, to enhance security and criminal investigations across borders. The treaty aims to improve the ability of participating nations to track and apprehend criminals, especially those involved in cross-border activities like terrorism or organized crime. It is part of broader efforts to strengthen cooperation within the European Union and neighboring countries to ensure safer communities through better information exchange.
