8- They recognize the need to improve the instruments of mutual legal assistance and police cooperation in such a way that these instruments develop both the efforts of prevention and investigation, bearing in mind the trial of the crimes that the Palermo Convention and the additional protocols refers to, as well as the United Nations instruments against terrorism.
