Article 2
The sale, supply, transfer or export of arms and related materiel of all types, including weapons and ammunition, military vehicles and equipment, paramilitary equipment and spare parts for the aforementioned, as well as equipment which might be used for internal repression, to Zimbabwe:
by nationals of Member States,
from the territories of Member States, or
using flag vessels or aircraft of Member States,
shall be prohibited whether originating or not in the territories of Member States.
It shall be prohibited:
to grant, sell, supply or transfer technical assistance, brokering services and other services related to military activities and to the provision, manufacture, maintenance and use of arms and related materiel of all types, including weapons and ammunition, military vehicles and equipment, paramilitary equipment and spare parts for the aforementioned, as well as equipment which might be used for internal repression, directly or indirectly to any person, entity or body in, or for use in, Zimbabwe;

Article 3
Article 2 shall not apply to:
the sale, supply, transfer or export of non-lethal military equipment or of equipment which might be used for internal repression, intended solely for humanitarian or protective use, or for institution-building programmes of the UN and the EU, or of materiel intended for EU and UN crisis management operations;
the provision of financing and financial assistance related to such equipment;
the provision of technical assistance related to such equipment,
on condition that any export thereof has been approved in advance by the relevant competent authority.
Article 4
Paragraph 1 shall be without prejudice to the cases where a Member State is bound by an obligation under international law, namely:
as a host country of an international intergovernmental organisation;

Paragraph 2 shall not apply to the addition to frozen accounts of:

provided that any such interest, other earnings and payments continue to be subject to paragraph 1.
Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not apply to the provision, processing or payment of funds, other financial assets or economic resources or to the provision of goods and services which are necessary to ensure the timely delivery of humanitarian assistance or to support other activities that support basic human needs where such assistance and other activities are carried out by:
