Council Regulation (EU) No 509/2012
of 15 June 2012
amending Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 concerning restrictive measures in view of the situation in Syria
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215 thereof,
Having regard to Council Decision 2011/782/CFSP of 1 December 2011 concerning restrictive measures against Syria ,
Having regard to the joint proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
On 18 January 2012, the Council adopted Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 with a view to giving effect to most of the measures provided for in Decision 2011/782/CFSP.
(2)
In view of the continued brutal repression and violation of human rights by the Government of Syria, Council Decision 2012/206/CFSP , amending Decision 2011/782/CFSP, provides for additional measures, namely a prohibition or prior authorisation requirement on the sale, supply, transfer or export of goods and technology which might be used for internal repression, and a ban on exports of luxury goods to Syria.
(3)
Those measures fall within the scope of the Treaty and regulatory action at the level of the Union is therefore necessary in order to implement them, in particular with a view to ensuring their uniform application by economic operators in all Member States.
(4)
Therefore, Regulation (EU) No 36/2012 should be amended to give effect to the new measures,
