Statement by the Commission

(2021/C 222 I/01)

The Commission recognises the importance of a common licensing and enforcement capacity-building and training programme for an effective EU export control system. The Commission, in consultation with the Dual-Use Coordination Group, undertakes to explore the human and financial resource implications that such a programme may entail, with a view to identifying options for the design, modalities and deployment of a capacity-building and training programme.
