of 14 November 2005
amending Regulation (EC) No 2007/2000 introducing exceptional trade measures for countries and territories participating in or linked to the European Union’s Stabilisation and Association process
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 133 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas:
|
(1) |
Regulation (EC) No 2007/2000 (1) expires on 31 December 2005. |
|
(2) |
Since Stabilisation and Association Agreements have not yet been concluded with all the Western Balkan countries, it is appropriate to prolong the period of validity of Regulation (EC) No 2007/2000. |
|
(3) |
Continued market opening is expected to contribute to the process of political and economic stabilisation in the region while not creating negative effects for the Community. Accordingly, these preferences should apply for a further period, from 1 January 2006 to 31 December 2010. |
|
(4) |
A Constitutional Charter was adopted in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia on 4 February 2003, changing the name of that country to Serbia and Montenegro and establishing the division of competences between the State Union and the two constituent Republics. |
|
(5) |
The trade measures provided for in Regulation (EC) No 2007/2000 should also take into account that the Republic of Montenegro, the Republic of Serbia and Kosovo, as defined in the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1244 (1999), each constitute separate customs territories. |
|
(6) |
The Community has concluded an agreement on trade in textile products with the Republic of Serbia (2), |
