COUNCIL DECISION (CFSP) 2023/692
of 28 March 2023
amending Decision 2010/452/CFSP on the European Union Monitoring Mission in Georgia, EUMM Georgia
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 42(4) and Article 43(2) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy,
Whereas:
(1) |
On 12 August 2010, the Council adopted Decision 2010/452/CFSP (1), which extended the European Union Monitoring Mission in Georgia (EUMM Georgia) established by Council Joint Action 2008/736/CFSP (2). |
(2) |
On 17 October 2022, the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2022/1970 (3) on the deployment in Armenia of EU observers from EUMM Georgia until 19 December 2022. |
(3) |
On 25 November 2022, the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2022/2318 (4), which extended EUMM Georgia until 14 December 2024. |
(4) |
On 19 December 2022, the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2022/2507 (5), which provided for the deployment of a team from EUMM Georgia in Armenia in order to enhance the Union’s awareness of the security situation with a view to contributing to the planning and preparation of a possible civilian common security and defence policy mission in Armenia. |
(5) |
On 23 January 2023, by way of Decision (CFSP) 2023/162 (6), the Council established the European Union Mission in Armenia (EUMA), which was launched on 20 February 2023 by way of Decision (CFSP) 2023/386 (7). |
(6) |
As the deployment by EUMM Georgia of a team in Armenia is therefore no longer necessary, Decision 2010/452/CFSP should be amended accordingly, |

Article 1
Article 3a of Decision 2010/452/CFSP is deleted.
Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
