COUNCIL DECISION 2014/742/CFSP
of 28 October 2014
repealing Common Position 2000/696/CFSP on the maintenance of specific restrictive measures directed against Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him and related Common Positions 98/240/CFSP, 98/326/CFSP, 1999/318/CFSP and 2000/599/CFSP
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
On 10 November 2000, the Council adopted Common Position 2000/696/CFSP (1). |
|
(2) |
Common Position 2000/696/CFSP gave effect to the stipulation in Council Common Position 2000/599/CFSP (2) that specific restrictive measures directed against Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him should be maintained. |
|
(3) |
Common Position 2000/696/CFSP consequently revised the restrictive measures provided for in Council Common Positions 98/240/CFSP (3), 98/326/CFSP (4) and 1999/318/CFSP (5) in order to maintain only those restrictive provisions directed against Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him. |
|
(4) |
Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him no longer represent a threat to the consolidation of democracy and, consequently, there are no grounds to continue applying those restrictive measures. |
|
(5) |
Common Positions 98/240/CFSP, 98/326/CFSP, 1999/318/CFSP, 2000/599/CFSP and 2000/696/CFSP should therefore be repealed, |
