COUNCIL IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2024/1050
of 4 April 2024
implementing Regulation (EU) 2020/1998 concerning restrictive measures against serious human rights violations and abuses
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EU) 2020/1998 of 7 December 2020 concerning restrictive measures against serious human rights violations and abuses (1), and in particular Article 14(1) thereof,

Whereas:

On 7 December 2020, the Council adopted Regulation (EU) 2020/1998. |
(2) |
On 4 April 2024, the Council adopted Regulation (EU) 2024/1034 (2), amending Regulation (EU) 2020/1998 in order to introduce an exemption for humanitarian assistance and other activities that support basic human needs, applicable to certain actors (‘the exemption’). The exemption is based on paragraph 1 of United Nations Security Council Resolution 2664 (2022), which was adopted on 9 December 2022. |
(3) |
In order to take account of cases where there is a higher risk that funds or economic resources provided would be misused for purposes other than humanitarian assistance, it is appropriate to exclude the application of the exemption with regard to certain designated natural or legal persons, entities or bodies listed in Annex I to Regulation (EU) 2020/1998. |
(4) |
Regulation (EU) 2020/1998 should therefore be amended accordingly, |
