THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular the second paragraph of Article 101 thereof,
Having regard to the recommendation from the European Commission,
Whereas:

In accordance with Article 6(2) of the 2011 Act of Accession, the accession of the Republic of Croatia to an agreement signed or concluded by the Member States and the Union with third countries or international organisations is to be agreed by means of a protocol to that agreement. In accordance with that Article, a simplified procedure is to apply to such accession, whereby a protocol is to be concluded by the Council, acting unanimously on behalf of the Member States, and by the third country concerned. |
|

On 14 September 2012, the Council authorised the Commission to open negotiations for the adaptation of agreements signed or concluded between the Union, or the Union and its Member States, and one or more third countries or international organisations, in view of the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the Union. |
|

The negotiations were successfully concluded with the Republic of Tajikistan by the initialling of a Protocol to the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement establishing a partnership between the European Communities and their Member States, of the one part, and the Republic of Tajikistan, of the other part (1), to take account of the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the Union (‘the Protocol’). |
|
(4) |
The signature and conclusion of the Protocol are subject to a separate procedure as regards matters falling within the competence of the Union and its Member States. |
|
(5) |
The conclusion, by the Commission, of the Protocol should be approved as regards matters falling within the competence of the European Atomic Energy Community, |
