Having regard to the partnership agreement between the members of the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States of the one part, and the European Community and its Member States, of the other part, signed in Cotonou on 23 June 2000(1) and revised at Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, on 22 June 2010(2) (the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement), and in particular Article 96 thereof,

(4) The fourth and last milestone marking the end of the transition will not be achieved by 27 July 2011, the date of expiry of Decision 2009/618/EC.
(5) In the light of the progress made in the return to constitutional rule, the appropriate measures should therefore be updated to take account of the progress achieved and Decision 2009/618/EC should be repealed,
