of 18 October 2021

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215 thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 2013/798/CFSP of 23 December 2013 concerning restrictive measures against the Central African Republic (1),

(2) |
On 29 July 2021, the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) adopted Resolution 2588 (2021). That Resolution extends the exemptions to the arms embargo and broadens the scope of the restrictive measures. |
