EU and Arab leaders in anti-terror agreement

European Union and Mediterranean leaders today agreed on an anti-terrorism code of conduct, but were unable to settle on a definition of what constitutes terrorism at a difficult summit in Barcelona.
After all-night talks on Sunday, foreign ministers from 35 countries, including Israel, finally agreed on the code, which denounces terrorism 'in all its forms and manifestations' and outlines plans to coordinate anti-terror operations.
However, the code's failure to define terrorism meant the two-day EuroMed conference disbanded in disarray.
