For the purpose of this article, the analysis of the
development of ethnoseparatism in West Europe has
been undertaken. Under current conditions, the
ethnical separatism threatens national security of
series of European countries and territorial integrity.
Special attention has been paid to social and political
beginnings and causes of terrorism in Spain and Great
Britain. The activity of such terrorist organizations as
IRA and ETA has been researched. Ideological basis
of violence, purposes and objectives, as well as the
main stages of formation and development of these
organizations have been disclosed. The author states
that the use of the terrorism as a method of political
struggle is destructive and does not facilitate a solution
to the national problems. We have also considered
approaches of the governments to solve the problems
of separatism and terrorism on the territory of these
countries. In their counter-terrorism efforts political
leaders of Spain and Great Britain have used both
methods of force and political and legal methods,
namely, granting to the regions of wide economical
and political independence, preservation of authentic
cultural values and language of indigenous people.
The formation of violence intolerance in public
conscience as control method has become the main
direction of the antiterrorist policy in the countries
under consideration. Anti-terrorist model which has
been developed by the European countries can be
effective and useful for the regions being in
ethnopolitical conflicts
