Iga-aastane eduaruanne massihävitusrelvade leviku vastase Euroopa Liidu strateegia rakendamise kohta (2020)

(2021/C 298/01)

SISSEJUHATUS

| 1. | Käesolev eduaruanne, mis käsitleb Euroopa Ülemkogu poolt 2003. aasta detsembris vastu võetud massihävitusrelvade leviku vastase Euroopa Liidu strateegia (dok 15708/03) rakendamist, hõlmab 2020. aastal läbiviidud tegevusi. Aruanne ei ole ammendav ning keskendub peamistele arengutele. Kõik tegevused viidi läbi ELi julgeolekupoliitika ja ELi julgeolekuliidu strateegia aastateks 2020–2025 laiemas kontekstis. |

| 2. | 2020. aasta oli enneolematu aasta, mil COVID-19 pandeemia mõjutas tõsiselt mitmepoolset tööd, peamiselt reisipiirangute tõttu. Kuigi mitu mitmepoolset kohtumist, eelkõige tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu (NPT) 10. läbivaatamiskonverents lükati edasi, oli palju muid kohtumisi võimalik korraldada veebis. Sel viisil oli mitmepoolseid arutelusid võimalik jätkata, tunnistades samas videokonverentsi teel toimuva suhtluse piiratust. Kuna suurem osa ELi massihävitusrelvade alasest tööst toimub mitmepoolsetel foorumitel, tekitas see uusi probleeme. |

TUUMAKÜSIMUSED

| 6. | EL on jätkuvalt täielikult pühendunud edendama tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu ülemaailmset kohaldamist ning täielikku ja tulemuslikku rakendamist, tuumarelvakatsetuste üldise keelustamise lepingu jõustumist ja ülemaailmset kohaldamist ning desarmeerimiskonverentsil läbirääkimiste alustamist ja peatset lõpuleviimist, et sõlmida tuumarelvade või muude tuumalõhkeseadmete jaoks lõhustuvate materjalide tootmise keelustamise leping. Samuti on endiselt üheks ELi prioriteediks luua Lähis-Idas massihävitusrelvadest ja nende kandesüsteemidest vaba tsoon. Nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2019/938 (1) kohaselt jätkus 2020. aastal ELi toetus UNIDIRile, et toetada sellise tsooni loomiseni viivaid usaldust suurendavaid meetmeid. |

Tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise leping ja Rahvusvaheline Aatomienergiaagentuur

| 7. | Tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu läbivaatamise tsükkel pidi lõppema 2020. aasta aprillis/mais tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu kümnendal läbivaatamiskonverentsil. Ülemaailmse tervishoiuolukorra ja sellest tulenevate reisipiirangute tõttu leppisid osalisriigid 2020. aasta märtsis kokku, et läbivaatamiskonverents lükatakse edasi 2021. aasta jaanuarisse. Aasta lõpupoole lükati läbivaatamiskonverents veel kord edasi, esialgselt 2021. aasta augustisse. EL andis oma panuse kõikidesse asjakohastesse nii virtuaalsete kui ka füüsiliste kohtumiste formaadis korraldatud aruteludesse, sealhulgas ÜRO Peaassamblee 75. istungjärgul toimunud desarmeerimise ja rahvusvahelise julgeoleku esimese komitee arutellu. |

7.

| 8. | 2020. aastal jätkus nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2019/615 (2) rakendamine ning ÜRO desarmeerimisküsimuste büroo (UNODA) viis läbi kaks tegevust: I sammast (tuumadesarmeerimine) käsitlev temaatiline seminar Genfis (29.–30. jaanuar) ja II sammast (tuumarelvade leviku tõkestamine) käsitlev temaatiline seminar New Yorgis (2.–3. märts). Nõukogu otsuse peamine eesmärk on aidata kaasa tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu läbivaatamiskonverentsi edukate tulemuste saavutamisele ning realistlike ja teostatavate meetmete ja soovituste väljatöötamisele, mis võivad saada üksmeelse toetuse. Kahte ülejäänud piirkondlikku kohtumist, mis pidid hõlmama kõiki kolme tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu sammast piirkondlike prioriteetide ja probleemide vaatenurgast, ei olnud võimalik korraldada. Nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2019/615 (mis käsitleb liidu toetust meetmetele läbivaatamiskonverentsi ettevalmistamiseks) kehtivust pikendati ilma finantsmõjuta 2020. aasta juunis nõukogu otsusega (ÜVJP) 2020/906 (3)16. aprillini 2021. |

| 9. | EL toetas jätkuvalt Rahvusvahelise Aatomienergiaagentuuri (IAEA) peamisi kohustusi massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise, tuumaohutuse, tuumajulgeoleku, tuumaenergia rakenduste ja tehnilise koostöö küsimustes, sealhulgas asjakohase rahalise toetuse kaudu. EL ja Euratom osalesid aktiivselt kõikidel IAEA juhtorganite koosolekutel ning ELi koordineerimistegevus toimus Viinis. 2020. aasta septembris toimunud IAEA 64. peakonverentsil võeti konsensuse alusel vastu kaks ELi toetatavat resolutsiooni tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete ja tuumajulgeoleku kohta. |

11.

| 12. | Teadusuuringute Ühiskeskus (JRC) ja IAEA jätkasid ELi ja IAEA kõrgemate ametnike viienda kohtumise (15. veebruar 2017) raames allkirjastatud tuumateaduse rakenduste alase koostöö praktilise korra rakendamist, mille eesmärk on töötada välja ühistegevused ja vältida jõupingutuste dubleerimist. Üheks selle praktilise korraga hõlmatud tegevuseks on radioaktiivsuse keskkonnaseire, mida mõõdetakse kogu Euroopas ja paljudes muudes maailma kohtades gammakiirguse doosikiiruse keskmise väärtuse ning viimase 24 tunni maksimumväärtuse alusel. Mõõtmisi teostatakse umbes 5 500 seirejaamas, mida käitavad pädevad siseriiklikud asutused 39 riigis, kes edastavad värsked radioloogilised väärtused Euroopa kiirgusandmete vahetamise platvormile (EURDEP). Kiirgusõnnetusest või kiirguslikust avariiolukorrast teatatakse varajase teatamise võrgustike nagu ECURIE või EMERCON kaudu, mida haldavad vastavalt Euroopa Komisjon ja IAEA, konsulteerides eelnevalt pädevate siseriiklike asutustega. |

12.

| 13. | Tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise ülemaailmses struktuuris on määrava tähtsusega element ühine laiaulatuslik tegevuskava, mis on mitmepoolse diplomaatia saavutus. Lepingu täielik rakendamine on Euroopa julgeoleku jaoks väga suure tähtsusega. EL on korduvalt avaldanud kahetsust selle üle, et Iraan on alates 2019. aasta juulist ja kogu 2020. aasta jooksul vähendanud oma ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava kohaseid tuumaalaseid kohustusi. ELi kõrge esindaja on ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava ühiskomisjoni koordinaatorina jätkuvalt täielikult pühendunud koostööle rahvusvahelise üldsusega, et ühine laiaulatuslik tegevuskava säilitada ja tagada selle täielik rakendamine. Oleme väljendanud heameelt väljavaate üle, et USA pöördub tagasi ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava juurde ja selle üle, et Iraan hakkab ühist laiaulatuslikku tegevuskava taas täielikult rakendama, ning toetame käimasolevaid intensiivseid diplomaatilisi jõupingutusi ja ELi kõrge esindaja kontakte kõigi asjaomaste partneritega. |
| --- | --- |

13.

| 14. | EL jätkab samas ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava rakendamise toetamist, koordineerides ühiskomisjoni ja ekspertide töörühmi, mis on asutatud ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava raames. Samuti toetab EL jätkuvalt IAEA pikaajalist missiooni, milleks on Iraani tuumaalaste kohustuste täitmise kontrollimine ja järelevalve. Vaatamata COVIDiga seotud piirangutele jätkab EL Iraaniga ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava III lisa alusel tuumaohutuse alast koostööd tsiviilotstarbelise tuumaenergia valdkonnas. Ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava hankekanal, mille abil vaadatakse läbi tuuma- või kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade üleandmine Iraanile, on endiselt täielikult toimiv. 2020. aastal kohtus hangete töörühm seitse korda ja 2019. aastal täheldatud negatiivne suundumus pöördus. Iraan oli jätkuvalt ELi peamine toetusesaaja tuumaohutuse valdkonnas. ELi ja Iraani tsiviilotstarbelise tuumaenergiaalase koostöö raames toetatakse Araki uurimisreaktori (Khondab) moderniseerimist, Iraani tuumaohutust reguleerivat asutust (INRA), IAEA kontrolli- ja järelevalvetoiminguid Iraanis, Bushehri tuumaelektrijaama vastupidavusteste ning varustuse tarnimist Iraani INRA tuumaohutuskeskusele. |

14.

| 15. | Praeguse kontrollistandardi moodustavad üldiste kaitsemeetmete lepingud ja nende lisaprotokollid ning EL kutsub jätkuvalt üles neid ülemaailmselt kohaldama. Euratomi ja IAEA vaheline tihe koostöö võimaldab tulemuslikke ja tõhusaid kaitsemeetmeid. EL toetab aktiivselt IAEA kaitsemeetmete süsteemi Euroopa Komisjoni kaitsemeetmete alase toetusprogrammi (Safeguards Support Programme) ja tuumaohutusalase koostöö rahastamisvahendi kaudu ning liikmesriikide toetusprogrammide kaudu. Euroopa Komisjoni kaitsemeetmete alase toetusprogrammiga on varem tugevdatud IAEA tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete alast suutlikkust, sealhulgas suutlikkust kontrollida ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava rakendamist, pakkudes IAEA kaitsemeetmete inspektoritele koolitust täiendava juurdepääsu ning uraani kontsentreerimis- ja rikastamiskatsete kombineeritud korra (Combined Procedure for Uranium Concentration and Enrichment Assay) toimimise kohta UF6 rikastamise kontrollimiseks, mis hõlmab ka asjaomaseid võrdlusmaterjale. Euroopa Komisjoni kaitsemeetmete alase toetusprogrammiga toetatakse IAEA analüütiliste laborite võrgustikku nende ühise laiaulatusliku tegevuskava kohaste kontrollivolituste rakendamisel, pakkudes analüütilisi teenuseid, standardmeetodeid ja kvaliteedikontrolli vahendeid. Eelkõige osakeste analüüs ning võrdlusosakeste tootmine ja sertifitseerimine aitab Rahvusvahelise Aatomienergiaagentuuri analüüsilaborite võrgustikul töötada välja uusi meetodeid ja mõõtmisprotokolle keskkonna pühkimisproovide analüüsimiseks vastavalt lisaprotokollile. |

15.

| 16. | Euroopa Komisjon jätkab Euroopa Kaitsemeetmetealaste Teadusuuringute ja Arendustegevuse Assotsiatsiooni (ESARDA) tegevust ja aktiivset toetamist. ESARDA jätkab oma rahvusvahelist tegevust ka oma vastastikuse mõistmise memorandumite kaudu, mis on sõlmitud Aafrika Tuumaenergia Komisjoni ning Aasia ja Vaikse ookeani piirkonna kaitsemeetmete võrgustikuga, ning tihedas koostöös tuumamaterjalide haldamise instituudiga. ESARDA töörühmad töötavad välja, katsetavad ja valideerivad uuenduslikke kaitsemeetmeid ja tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lähenemisviise, millest saavad otsest kasu energeetika peadirektoraadi tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete direktoraat ja Rahvusvahelise Aatomienergiaagentuuri kaitsemeetmete osakond. Vaatamata COVIDiga seotud piirangutele korraldati Euratomi inspektoritele tehnilisi kaugkoolitusi uraani rikastamise, plutooniumi isotoopkoostise (isotoopide sisalduse) kontrollimise ja kaitsetõkke kontrollimise laserkaardistamise (LMCV) kohta. Enne pandeemiat korraldati ka neutronite loendamise alane koolitus. Hästitoimiv ESARDA kursus tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete ja tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise kohta siiski 2020. aastal tühistati ning valmistati ette ulatuslikud stsenaariumid 2021. aasta kursuse (12.–16. aprill 2021) jaoks. Teadus- ja arendustegevuse tulemused ning haridus- ja koolitusalgatused suurendavad Euroopa ja rahvusvahelist suutlikkust tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete valdkonnas ning tugevdavad strateegilist kaubanduskontrolli. Selle töö tulemustega sai toetada tuumajulgeoleku ja tuumadesarmeerimise algatusi. Euroopa Komisjoni JRC sai kaitsemeetmete inspektorite tehnilise kaugkoolituse kogemusi, mida jagati IAEAga kolmepoolsetel kohtumistel (IAEA, Euratom ja JRC). Traditsiooniline ESARDA maikuu kohtumine Luxembourgis lükati edasi 2020. aasta novembrisse ja see korraldati ühiselt koos IRSNiga virtuaalses formaadis ja sellel oli 270 osalejat. Praegu valmistab ESARDA ette esimest iga-aastast ühiskoosolekut tuumamaterjalide haldamise instituudiga, mis on kavandatud virtuaalse üritusena 2021. aasta augusti lõpus. |

16.

| 17. | Euroopa Komisjon on rahastanud Euroopa tuumaenergiaalase hariduse võrgustiku (ENEN) kaudu ulatuslikku koolitus- ja haridusprojekti tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete valdkonnas. Selle lepingu alusel teeb ENEN koostööd Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), JRC, ESARDA ja IAEAga, et luua 2021.–2022. õppeaastal esimene tuumaenergiaalaste kaitsemeetmete akadeemiline kraadiõppeprogramm. Väljaspool Euroopat pärit üliõpilaste jaoks on käimas spetsiaalne värbamiskampaania ning kursuse õpetamiseks on kindlaks välja selgitatud kuni 35 ekspertlektorit. |

17.

| 18. | Nõukogu otsustas Euroopa välisteenistuse ettepaneku põhjal 2020. aastal aidata kaasa IAEA kaitsemeetmete süsteemi elementide ülemaailmsele kohaldamisele, pöörates erilist tähelepanu väikeste koguste muudetud protokollile ja lisaprotokollile, tehes kolmandates riikides mitmeid demarše (6). Demaršide esitamine algas 2020. aasta detsembris. |
| --- | --- |

18.

| 19. | EL ja tema liikmesriigid pööravad erilist tähelepanu tuumaohutuse rakendamisele kogu maailmas ning selle jätkuvale parandamisele. EL võttis vastu muudetud tuumaohutuse direktiivi, mis jõustus 2017. aastal ning millega anti õigusliku jõud tuumaohutust käsitleva Viini deklaratsiooni eesmärkidele. Muudetud direktiivi põhielemendiks on ohutuseesmärgi kehtestamine kõigi käitajate jaoks, et hoida ära avariisid ja vältida ulatuslikku radioaktiivset pihkumist. Muudetud direktiiviga lisati Euratomi õigusaktidele ka vastastikune eksperthindamine. Esimene Euroopa vastastikune eksperthindamine on edukalt läbi viidud. Kõik ELi liikmesriigid on uued nõuded oma siseriiklikusse õigusesse üle võtnud. |

Tuumarelvakatsetuste üldise keelustamise leping (CTBT)

| 23. | CTBT jõustumine ja ülemaailmne kohaldamine on massihävitusrelvade leviku vastase ELi strateegia olulised eesmärgid. Kõik ELi liikmesriigid on näidanud üles pühendumust lepingu täitmisele, ratifitseerides selle ja rakendades selle peamisi kohustusi. CTBT on oluline usaldust ja julgeolekut suurendav meede. EL osales 2020. aastal diplomaatilises tegevuses CTBT toetuseks, kohandatuna pandeemiast tingitud piiratud võimalustele. CTBT jõustumise edendamine oli üks ÜRO peasekretäri dokumendis „Julgeolek kui meie ühine tulevik: desarmeerimiskava“ esitletud meetmetest, mida EL otsustas toetada. EL on korduvalt kutsunud üles lepingut ratifitseerima oma avaldustes asjaomastel foorumitel ning kahepoolsetes kontaktides asjaomaste II lisasse kuuluvate ja sinna mittekuuluvate riikidega. Peale nende osales massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise ja desarmeerimise erisaadik 6. oktoobril 2020 moderaatorina paneelarutelus CTBTO korraldatud veebiseminaril „CTBT ja tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingu 10. läbivaatamiskonverents“. |

Tuumajulgeolekuga seotud algatused

| 25. | EL toetas 2020. aasta veebruaris toimunud tuumajulgeoleku teemalise rahvusvahelise konverentsi (ICONS 2020) kokkukutsumist ja tulemusi. Selle ministrite deklaratsioonis korratakse kohustust säilitada ja tugevdada kogu tuuma- ja muu radioaktiivse materjali ja rajatiste tõhusat ja kõikehõlmavat tuumajulgeolekut ning tunnustatakse IAEA keskset rolli tuumajulgeolekualase rahvusvahelise koostöö hõlbustamisel ja koordineerimisel. |
| --- | --- |

25.

| 26. | EL edendas jätkuvalt tuumaterrorismi tõkestamise rahvusvahelist konventsiooni (ICSANT) ning tuumamaterjali ja tuumarajatiste füüsilise kaitse konventsiooni (CPPNM) muudatust kui põhielemente ülemaailmse tuumajulgeoleku ja terrorismivastase võitluse struktuuris. ÜRO narkootikumide ja kuritegevuse büroo ja ÜRO terrorismivastase võitluse büroo jätkasid nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2018/1939 (mis käsitleb liidu toetust tuumaterrorismi tõkestamise rahvusvahelise konventsiooni ülemaailmseks kohaldamiseks ja tõhusaks rakendamiseks) (8) rakendamist. Nõukogu otsuse eesmärgiks on suurendada ICSANTiga ühinenute arvu, suurendada siseriiklike poliitikakujundajate ja otsuste tegijate teadlikkust ning suurendada suutlikkust, et aidata parandada riiklikke õigusakte ja suurendada riiklike sidusrühmade (sealhulgas kriminaalõiguse valdkonna ametnike) suutlikkust, et uurida tuumaterrorismi juhtumeid, nende eest süüdistusi esitada ja neid kohtulikult menetleda. Mitu 2020. aastaks kavandatud üritust lükati pandeemia tõttu edasi või teise võimalusena korraldati need edukalt virtuaalselt. |

28.

| 29. | Alates 2013. aastast on olnud täielikult toimiv ELi tuumajulgeoleku koolituskeskus (EUSECTRA) tuumamaterjali ja muude radioaktiivsete ainetega seotud ebaseaduslike toimingute avastamiseks ja nendele reageerimiseks ning sellest on saanud kasu Euroopa Liidu liikmesriigid ja partnerriigid, sealhulgas mitu GICNTi liikmesriiki. Keskust haldab Euroopa Komisjoni Teadusuuringute Ühiskeskus (JRC), mille rajatised asuvad Karlsruhes (Saksamaa) ja Ispras (Itaalia), tehes seda tihedas koostöös teiste rahvusvaheliste algatustega, mida edendavad IAEA ja mitu GICNTi partnerriiki. Keskust kasutatakse ka praktiliste õppuste jaoks, mis on peamiselt seotud tuumamaterjali salakaubaveo vastase tegevusega. EUSECTRA tegeleb aktiivselt ELi liikmesriikide ja ELi partnerite koolitusvajadustega, mis hõlmab ka koordineeritud koolitusi liikmesriikide tolli- ja õiguskaitseasutuste esindajatele, mida juba rakendatakse ja kavandatakse aastateks 2019–2021 (otseses koostöös komisjoni siseasjade peadirektoraadi ning komisjoni maksunduse ja tolliliidu peadirektoraadiga). EUSECTRA tugevdab koolituse läbiviimiseks kasutatavat taristut, arendab virtuaalseid õppevahendeid ja hindab ELi liikmesriikide taotlusel seadmete toimivust. Pandeemia on takistanud kohapealset koolitust. KBRT-ohtude ja tuumaterrorismiga võitlemiseks on välja töötatud hübriidne lähenemisviis, milles kasutatakse tänapäevaseid vahendeid ja keskendutakse vahendite kaugkasutusele ning tuumamaterjalide ja radioaktiivsete ainete tegelikule kasutamisele. |

34.

| 35. | 2020. aastal käivitas TAXUD, keda toetasid JRC ja EUSECTRA, interaktiivse e-õppe programmi, et toetada tolliametnike radioaktiivse ja tuumaalase piirikontrolli koolitust. Põhimoodulis näidatakse tolliametnike tähtsat rolli tuumamaterjalide ja radioaktiivsete ainete tuvastamisel, suurendades nende teadlikkust riskidest ja ohtudest, ning tutvustatakse üldiselt asjaomaseid materjale, seadmeid ja protsesse. Edasiarendatud moodulis käsitletakse samu teemasid üksikasjalikumalt. Mõlemad kursused hõlmavad realistlikke stsenaariume, mis hõlmavad meresadamaid, lennujaamu, raudteid ja maismaapiire, kus osalejad saavad oma otsuste tegemist katsetada. Maksunduse ja tolliliidu peadirektoraadi ning JRC koostöö on loonud suurema koostoime liikmesriikide tolliasutuste vahel. EUSECTRA keskuses pakutavad koolitused on riiklikele ekspertidele platvormiks piirikaitse valdkonna parimate tuumajulgeoleku tavade vahetamiseks, aidates seega kaasa ühtlustatud menetluste väljatöötamisele. See on osa püüdlusest võidelda ühiselt tuumamaterjalide salakaubaveo vastu ja hõlbustada kaubandust tollikontrollipunktide kaudu. Lõpptulemusena on eesmärk takistada üksikisikute juurdepääsu kahjulikele materjalidele, edendades ühist tuumajulgeoleku kultuuri. |

Tuumadesarmeerimise kontrollimisega seotud algatused

| 36. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid toetasid 2016. aastal ÜRO Peaassambleel tuumadesarmeerimise kontrollimisega tegeleva valitsusekspertide rühma loomist, tervitasid valitsusekspertide rühmas toimunud arutelusid ja nõustusid soovitusega jätkata tööd, võttes arvesse valitsusekspertide rühma aruannet. EL toetab täielikult ÜRO Peaassamblee resolutsiooni 74/50 ja uue valitsusekspertide rühma loomist, mis kutsutakse kokku 2021. ja 2022. aastal, et jätkuvalt käsitleda kontrollimise rolli tuumadesarmeerimise edendamisel. EL toetab laiemal partnerlusel põhinevat tööd ja koostööpõhist kontrollimise korda ning on osalenud tuumadesarmeerimise kontrollimise rahvusvahelise partnerluse (IPNDV) töös alates selle loomisest 2015. aastal. EL on ka tuumadesarmeerimise kontrollimisega seotud tegevuspunkti toetaja ÜRO peasekretäri avaldatud dokumendis „Julgeolek kui meie ühine tulevik: desarmeerimiskava“. |

Piirkondlikud küsimused

| 37. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid kutsusid Korea Rahvademokraatlikku Vabariiki (KRDV) jätkuvalt tungivalt üles tegema konkreetseid samme, et loobuda täielikult, kontrollitavalt ja pöördumatult massihävitusrelvade ja ballistiliste rakettide alastest programmidest. See kajastus kõigis asjakohastes ELi avaldustes. EL on seisukohal, et 2020. aasta märtsis ja aprillis toime pandud ballistiliste rakettide laskmistega rikub KRDV oma rahvusvahelisi kohustusi, mis tulenevad mitmest ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsioonist, kujutades endast tõsist ohtu piirkondlikule ja rahvusvahelisele rahule ja julgeolekule ning õõnestades rahvusvahelisi jõupingutusi püsiva rahu ja julgeoleku saavutamiseks Korea poolsaarel. Ilmselt uute rakettide demonstreerimine oktoobris ja KRDV väited, et ta ei ole enam kohustatud säilitama moratooriumi tuumarelvade ja mandritevaheliste ballistiliste rakettide katsetamisele, kahjustasid veelgi dialoogi jätkamise võimalusi. EL kutsus KRDVd üles viivitamata peatama kõik rakettide laskmised, osalema sisulistes läbirääkimistes, astuma konkreetseid ja usaldusväärseid samme usalduse ja kindlustunde loomiseks ning loobuma kõikidest tuumarelva- ja ballistiliste rakettide alastest programmidest täielikul, kontrollitaval ja pöördumatul viisil. EL kutsus KRDVd jätkuvalt tungivalt üles täielikult järgima kõiki asjakohaseid ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsioone ning muid riigi rahvusvahelisi kohustusi, allkirjastama ja ratifitseerima viivitamata tuumarelvakatsetuste üldise keelustamise lepingu ning taas täitma tuumarelva leviku tõkestamise lepingust tulenevaid kaitsemeetmetega seotud kohustusi. EL on kõik ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsioonid kiiresti ELi õigusaktidesse üle võtnud ning võtnud vastu ka ranged autonoomsed sanktsioonid, mis täiendavad ja tugevdavad ÜRO kehtestatud sanktsioone. EL jätkas jõupingutusi, et julgustada teisi riike täielikult rakendama KRDV vastu suunatud sanktsioone. Euroopa välisteenistuse pressiesindaja 16. juuni avalduses väljendati kahetsust KRDV pingeid tekitanud tegevuse üle, ning kutsuti tungivalt üles taasalustama niipea kui võimalik püsivat diplomaatilist protsessi, mille eesmärk on usalduse loomine ning püsiva rahu ja julgeoleku saavutamine tuumarelvavabal Korea poolsaarel. |

Desarmeerimiskonverents / tuumarelvade või muude tuumalõhkeseadmete jaoks lõhustuvate materjalide tootmise keelustamise leping

| 38. | EL toetab endiselt ühtselt ja pühendunult kontrollitavat ja lepingupõhist tuumadesarmeerimist ja relvastuskontrolli ning rõhutab vajadust teha uusi mitmepoolseid jõupingutusi ja taaselustada mitmepoolsed läbirääkimisorganid, eelkõige desarmeerimiskonverentsi. ELi jaoks on desarmeerimiskonverentsi pikaajaliseks prioriteediks alustada viivitamata läbirääkimisi tuumarelvade või muude tuumalõhkeseadmete jaoks lõhustuvate materjalide tootmise keelustamise lepingu (FMCT) üle. EL toetab selliste läbirääkimiste alustamist kooskõlas dokumendiga CD/1299 ja selles sisalduvate volitustega. EL kutsub kõiki desarmeerimiskonverentsi liikmeid üles alustama viivitamatult läbirääkimisi FMCT üle ning alustama tööd teiste päevakorras olevate küsimuste osas. Nõukogu 11. detsembri 2017. aasta otsuse (EL) 2017/2284 (9) kohaselt osutas EL rahalist toetust ÜRO desarmeerimisküsimuste büroole (UNODA), et hõlbustada Aafrika, Aasia, Ladina-Ameerika ja Kariibi riikide osalemist FMCTga seotud konsultatsioonides ja muus tegevuses. EL innustab ka kõiki tuumarelvi omavaid riike, kes seda veel ei ole teinud, kuulutama tuumarelvade või muude tuumalõhkeseadmete jaoks lõhustuvate materjalide tootmisele viivitamatult moratooriumi ja seda rakendama, kui nad ei ole seda juba teinud. Tuumariigist ELi liikmesriik on asjakohase moratooriumi välja kuulutanud ja sellised rajatised demonteerinud. |

BALLISTILISED RAKETID

Haagi tegevusjuhend

| 53. | Ballistiliste rakettide leviku tõkestamist käsitlev Haagi tegevusjuhend (HCOC) tuleneb rahvusvahelise üldsuse jõupingutustest, mille eesmärk on reguleerida massihävitusrelvi kanda suutvate ballistiliste rakettide valdkonda. HCOC on ainuke mitmepoolne läbipaistvuse ja usalduse suurendamise vahend ballistiliste rakettide leviku valdkonnas. HCOCga ühinemisel võtavad liikmed vabatahtlikult kohustuse esitada teatisi enne ballistiliste rakettide ja kanderakettide väljalaskmist ning katselendude läbiviimist. Ühinenud riigid võtavad samuti kohustuse esitada iga-aastase deklaratsiooni, mis käsitleb nende poliitikat ballistiliste rakettide ja kanderakettide valdkonnas. |
| --- | --- |

53.

| 54. | EL on tegevusjuhendit kindlalt toetanud selle loomisest alates. Tegevusjuhendile on alla kirjutanud kõik ELi liikmesriigid. Pärast 2002. aasta novembris Madalmaades Haagis toimunud poliitiliselt siduva HCOCi allkirjastamist ja jõustumist on allakirjutanud riikide arv kasvanud 93-lt 143-le. See on saavutatud ka ELi diplomaatilise tegevusega tegevusjuhendi ülemaailmse kohaldamise toetuseks, mille EL suunas mitmele riigile, kes ei olnud tegevusjuhendile alla kirjutanud. |
| --- | --- |

54.

| 55. | EL edendab järjekindlalt tegevusjuhendi ülemaailmset kohaldamist, täielikku rakendamist ja tõhusamat toimimist. ELi nõukogu on viimase kümne aasta jooksul võtnud ÜVJP raames vastu mitmeid otsuseid ja ühismeetmeid, millega toetatakse Haagi tegevusjuhendit ja rakettide leviku tõkestamist üldiselt. EL rahastab nende nõukogu otsuste kaudu HCOCi teavitustegevust, mis hõlmab kõrvalüritusi, teadusanalüüse, ekspertide kohtumisi ja piirkondlikke teadlikkuse suurendamise seminare. Seda tegevust teostab Pariisis asuv Fondation pour la Recherche Stratégique ning selles osaleb tavaliselt ka HCOCi roteeruv eesistuja. |

ÜHINENUD RAHVASTE ORGANISATSIOONI JULGEOLEKUNÕUKOGU RESOLUTSIOON 1540 NING KBRT-OHU VÄHENDAMINE

| 58. | ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsioon 1540 (2004) on endiselt massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise rahvusvahelise süsteemi keskne element. See on esimene rahvusvaheline dokument, milles terviklikult ja igakülgselt käsitletakse massihävitusrelvi, nende kandevahendeid ja massihävitusrelvadega seotud materjale. ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsiooniga 1540 (2004) kehtestatakse siduvad kohustused kõikidele riikidele. Nende eesmärk on ennetada ja tõkestada valitsusväliste osalejate juurdepääsu sellistele relvadele, nende kandevahenditele ja relvadega seotud materjalidele. Vastavalt ÜRO põhikirja VII peatükile vastu võetud resolutsioon kohustab kõiki riike võtma vastu vajalikud õigusaktid, et tõkestada tuuma-, keemia- ja bioloogiliste relvade sattumist valitsusväliste osalejate kätte ning kehtestada asjakohased siseriiklikud kontrollid seotud materjalide üle nende salakaubaveo ärahoidmiseks. 2016. aastal teostatud resolutsiooni 1540 põhjaliku läbivaatamise tulemusena kinnitati resolutsiooni keskset tähtsust, olulisust ja mõjuvõimu, mida kajastati ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsioonis 2325. |
| --- | --- |

58.

| 59. | Selleks et aidata rakendada 2016. aasta põhjaliku läbivaatamise tulemust ning toetada ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsiooni 1540 täielikku rakendamist, võttis nõukogu 11. mail 2017 vastu nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2017/809 (20) massihävitusrelvade ja nende kandevahendite leviku tõkestamist käsitleva ÜRO Julgeolekunõukogu resolutsiooni 1540 (2004) rakendamise toetamiseks. Nõukogu otsus hõlmab 48-kuust perioodi ning seda rakendab New Yorgis asuv ÜRO desarmeerimisküsimuste büroo, kes on osa rakendamisest andnud üle Viinis asuvale OSCE-le. ELi osutatava rahastamisega aidatakse riikidel teha kindlaks konkreetseid tehnilise abi valdkondi, suurendada teadlikkust asjakohaste tehnilise abi programmide kohta ning tõhustada koostööd rahvusvaheliste ja piirkondlike organisatsioonidega, et toetada riigi suutlikkuse arendamise alaseid jõupingutusi. |

59.

| 60. | Euroopa Komisjoni Teadusuuringute Ühiskeskus (JRC) edastas resolutsiooni 1540 komitee eesistujale ametlikult strateegilise kaubandusatlase, mille koostasid JRC ja USA energeetikaministeeriumi Argonne’i riiklik labor. Strateegiline kaubandusatlas töötati välja selleks, et edendada arusaamist strateegiliste kaupade, st sõjalise strateegilise väärtusega kaupade, sealhulgas kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade ülemaailmsetest kaubavoogudest. Atlas on avaldatud kahes köites, milles esitatakse riigipõhised seisukohad (21) ja kaubapõhised seisukohad (22) strateegilise kaubanduse kohta. Strateegilist kaubandusatlast kasutab muu hulgas Maailma Tolliorganisatsioon. Sellisena leiti, et see pakub huvi resolutsiooni 1540 komitee eksperdirühmale. |

60.

| 61. | 2010. aastal loodi ELi KBRT tippkeskuste algatus, mis on ülemaailmne suutlikkuse suurendamise programm keemiliste, bioloogiliste, radioloogiliste ja tuumamaterjalide või -ainetega seotud tahtlike, õnnetustest tingitud või looduslikku päritolu riskide ning seonduvate käitiste või tootmisaladega seotud riskide vähendamiseks. See algatus hõlmab praegu 62 partnerriiki, kes on koondunud kaheksa piirkondliku sekretariaadi ümber järgmistes piirkondades: Aafrika Atlandi ookeani rannik, Kesk-Aasia, Ida- ja Kesk-Aafrika, Pärsia lahe koostöönõukogu riigid, Lähis-Ida, Põhja-Aafrika ja Sahel, Kagu-Aasia ning Kagu- ja Ida-Euroopa. |
| --- | --- |

61.

| 62. | ELi KBRT tippkeskuste algatust on rahastatud stabiilsuse ja rahu edendamise rahastamisvahendist, mille kehtivus lõppes 2020. aastal ja mis asendatakse naabruspoliitika, arengu- ja rahvusvahelise koostöö rahastamisvahendiga (NDICI) aastateks 2021–2027. ELi KBRT tippkeskuste algatuse raames on tehtud edusamme KBRT-materjalidega seotud ohtude vähendamisel, parandades suutlikkust ja koostööd riiklikul ja piirkondlikul tasandil ning edendades ohutus- ja koostöökultuuri vastavalt Euroopa Kontrollikoja 2018. aasta aruandele (Euroopa Kontrollikoja eriaruanne nr 14/2018). Osalevaid riike toetatakse nende jõupingutustes luua riiklikud ja piirkondlikud koordineerimis- ja juhtimisstruktuurid, tehes seda vabatahtlikkuse alusel ning järgides nõudluspõhist ja piirkondlikku lähenemisviisi. Need platvormid töötavad välja ja tugevdavad riiklikke KBRT poliitikaid ja arendavad suutlikkust, lähtudes konkreetsetest vajadustest ning tuginedes riskihindamistele ja riiklikele tegevuskavadele. Neid platvorme toetatakse mitme piirkondliku koostööprojekti abil, mida rahastatakse nimetatud algatuse raames, ning need on avatud ka teistele rahastamisvahenditele. Alates 2010. aastast on rahastatud 85 piirkondlikku projekti. Algatuse eelarve alates 2010. aastast 10 aasta pikkuseks perioodiks on ligikaudu 250 miljonit eurot. |
| --- | --- |

62.

| 63. | Tippkeskuste võrgustik on nüüdseks hästi arenenud. COVID-19 pandeemia ajal tõestas see oma töökindlust ja jätkusuutlikkust, kui mitu piirkondlikku sekretariaati algatas mitu veebiseminari, et vahetada eksperditeadmisi ning jagada kogemusi ja parimaid tavasid epideemiate ohjamiseks. Vajaduspõhine toetus mitmele riigile aitas neil kehtestada asjakohased menetlused esimeste nakkusjuhtumite avastamiseks. Pikaajaline abi, mis keskendub eelkõige Aafrikale, suurendab jätkuvalt väga ohtlike patogeenide varajase avastamise ja seire suutlikkust, kasutades terviseühtsuse põhimõtet. Mitmes piirkonnas arendatakse piirkondlikke KBRT tegevuskavasid ja piirkondadevahelist koostööd. Peale selle on algatus piisavalt küpses staadiumis, et toetada uusi tegevusi julgeoleku juhtimise valdkonnas seoses küberkuritegevuse, terrorismi, elutähtsa taristu, võltsitud ravimite, hübriidohtude ja lõhkeainetega ning et arendada edasi koostööd tuumaalase kohtuekspertiisi, piirikontrolli ja kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade ekspordikontrolli küsimustes. ELi JRC töötas ELi KBRT tippkeskuste võrgustiku raames koostöös USA energeetikaministeeriumi ja Kiievi Tuumauuringute Instituudiga 2020. aastal välja tuumajulgeolekualase hariduse ja koolituse Gruusia, Ukraina, Aserbaidžaani ja Moldova Vabariigi osalejatele, et suurendada tuumajulgeolekut Musta mere piirkonnas, ning toetas kolme tuumajulgeolekuga seotud projekti rakendamist GUAMi riikides (Gruusia, Ukraina, Aserbaidžaan ja Moldova Vabariik). Ukrainas ja Moldova Vabariigis viidi läbi tuumamaterjali salakaubaveo stsenaariumidel põhinevad laua- ja väliõppused. Kiievi Tuumauuringute Instituudis ning Harkovi Füüsika ja Tehnoloogia Instituudis pakuti koolitust noortele tuumajulgeoleku spetsialistidele. Lisaks loodi piirkondlik tuumaalase kohtuekspertiisi infosüsteem. Tuumaalase kohtuekspertiisi suutlikkuse säilitamiseks Musta mere piirkonnas algatati GUAMi riikide jaoks kolm Ukraina Teadus- ja Tehnoloogiakeskuse juhitavat järelprojekti, mis algavad 2021. aastal. Lisaks koostati projekt tuumaalase kohtuekspertiisi suutlikkuse suurendamiseks Gruusias ja Armeenias, mida juhib Rahvusvaheline teadus- ja tehnoloogiakeskus (ISTC); see projekt algab ka 2021. aastal. |

63.

| 64. | KBRT-ohtude vähendamise sisemiste aspektide osas vaadati 2019. aasta lõpus läbi komisjoni poolt 2017. aasta oktoobris osana laiemast terrorismivastase võitluse paketist esitatud keemiliste, bioloogiliste, radioloogiliste ja tuumajulgeolekuriskide vastase valmisoleku suurendamise tegevuskava rakendamine ning dokumenti peetakse endiselt KBRT valdkonna kehtivaks poliitikaraamistikuks. 2020. aasta terrorismivastase võitluse tegevuskavaga tugevdati mõningaid KBRT aspekte keemilistest mõjuritest tuleneva ohu ja bioturvalisuse osas. Esimese puhul uurib komisjon praegu võimalust piirata juurdepääsu mõnedele kemikaalidele, mida saab kasutada pahatahtlikel eesmärkidel. KBRT-ohu tuvastamise alane töö, sealhulgas komisjoni koordineeritud varustuse katsetamine mõnes liikmesriigis, edenes kavakohaselt. Osa 2019. aastal alustatud KBRT-alasest tegevusest tuli 2020. aastal siiski peatada; eelkõige ELi õiguskaitseasutuste kiirgusohtude alane koolituskampaania, mida rakendati Saksamaal Karlsruhes asuvas EUSECTRA koolituskeskuses. |
| --- | --- |

64.

| 65. | Tegevuskava rakendamist toetavad projektid, mida kaasrahastatakse politseikoostöö, kuritegevuse tõkestamise ja selle vastu võitlemise ning kriisiohje rahastamisvahendist. Valitud algatustest kaks olid KBRT-poliitika seisukohast eriti olulised. Üks neist (Mall-CBRN) käsitleb KBRT kaitset ja valmisolekut suurtes kaubanduskeskustes, samas kui teine (Safe Stadium) kohaldab sarnast lähenemisviisi suurte spordiväljakute, eelkõige jalgpallistaadionide suhtes. Üks mõlema algatuse eeliseid on see, et konsortsiumides on asjaomased lõppkasutajad, nt jalgpalliklubi Real Madrid. |
| --- | --- |

65.

| 66. | ELi KBRT tegevuskava on saanud teaduslikku ja tehnilist toetust mitmest teadusprojektist, mida rahastatakse seitsmenda raamprogrammi kaudu turvalise ühiskonna programmist. Teadusuuringud hõlmavad kogu kriisiohjetsüklit alates ennetamisest kuni taastumiseni. Standardiseerimisvajaduste kindlakstegemiseks teostatavad tegevused võivad viia Euroopa standardite väljatöötamiseni. Programmiga „Horisont 2020“ tugevdatakse keskendatud valdkondade abil KBRT-alaste teadusuuringute valdkonnas käimasolevat tööd. |

MÕTTEKOJAD

| 67. | Nõukogu 26. juuli 2010. aasta otsusest 2010/430/ÜVJP (23) tulenevalt on massihävitusrelvade leviku vastase ELi strateegia rakendamist aktiivselt toetanud massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise ja desarmeerimise ELi konsortsium, mis alustas tegevust 2011. aasta jaanuaris. Nõukogu võttis 26. veebruaril 2018 vastu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2018/299, (24) millega laiendatakse veelgi ELi toetust konsortsiumi tegevusele aastatel 2018–2021, võttes aluseks senised saavutused ja lisades uusi projekte. |
| --- | --- |

67.

| 68. | Konsortsiumi tegevus suurendas ELi nähtavust kolmandates riikides ja kodanikuühiskonnas ning andis märkimisväärse panuse ELi poliitikakujundamisse massihävitusrelvade leviku vastase tegevuse ja desarmeerimise valdkondades. Konsortsium loob platvormi praktikute mitteametlikeks kontaktideks ja edendab dialoogi erinevate sidusrühmade vahel. Konsortsiumi tegevused on aidanud suurendada teadlikkust massihävitus- ja tavarelvadega seonduvatest probleemidest ning konsortsium on analüüsinud võimalusi selliste probleemide käsitlemiseks. Konsortsium põhineb ulatuslikul võrgustikul, kuhu kuulub 99 mõttekoda ja uurimiskeskust kogu Euroopast, sealhulgas liikmed kõigist ELi liikmesriikidest ning partnerriikidest, nagu Šveits, Türgi ja Ukraina. 2020. aastal liitus võrgustikuga 9 instituuti. |

EKSPORDIKONTROLL

| 71. | 2020. aastal alustas COARM (nõukogu tavarelvastuse ekspordi töörühm) tööd, et rakendada tulemusi, mis on esitatud nõukogu järeldustes relvaekspordi kontrolli käsitleva ühise seisukoha 2008/944/ÜVJP (26) läbivaatamise kohta (27). Pärast COARMis kokkuleppimist käivitas Euroopa välisteenistus oktoobris oma veebisaidil veebipõhise andmebaasi, mis võimaldab üldsusel tutvuda liikmesriikide relvaekspordi andmetega ja neid analüüsida kasutajasõbralikul viisil. Seda andmebaasi on laialdaselt tervitatud kui relvaekspordi läbipaistvuse märkimisväärset suurenemist. Andmebaas sisaldab teavet relvaekspordilitsentside väärtuse, sihtkoha ja liigi ning liikmesriikide tegeliku ekspordi kohta ning seda ajakohastatakse igal aastal. Lisaks valmistas COARM ette nõukogu otsuse väike- ja kergrelvade ning nende laskemoona ekspordiga seotud lõppkasutaja sertifikaatide kohta. See otsus võeti vastu 2021. aasta jaanuaris ja see aitab kaasa liikmesriikide relvaekspordipoliitika edasisele ühtlustamisele. COARM jätkas teavitustegevust ja korrapärast dialoogi mitmesuguste sidusrühmadega, sealhulgas kodanikuühiskonna organisatsioonide, Rahvusvahelise Punase Risti Komitee ja Euroopa kaitsetööstuse esindajatega. |
| --- | --- |

71.

| 72. | EL jätkas ka teavitustegevust, et toetada kolmandaid riike relvaekspordi kontrollisüsteemi loomisel ning edendada relvakaubanduslepingu ülemaailmset kohaldamist. Vastavalt nõukogu 22. jaanuari 2018. aasta otsusele (ÜVJP) 2018/101 (28) ja sellele järgnenud nõukogu 12. oktoobri 2020. aasta otsusele (ÜVJP) 2020/1464 tulemusliku relvaekspordi kontrolli edendamise kohta, (29) mida rakendab Saksamaa majanduse ja ekspordikontrolli föderaalne amet (BAFA), toimusid mitmed seminarid ja individuaalsed abistamissündmused, pandeemia tõttu peamiselt virtuaalses formaadis. Lisaks viidi nõukogu otsuse (ÜVJP) 2017/915 (30) alusel BAFA ja Expertise France’i poolt ellu täiendavaid piirkondlikke teavitustegevusi, kohandatud riiklikke abiprogramme ja sihtotstarbelisi individuaalse abi seminare, misläbi toetati relvakaubanduslepingu tõhusat rakendamist ja ülemaailmset kohaldamist. |
| --- | --- |

72.

| 73. | 2020. aastal toimusid relvaekspordi kontrolliga seotud küsimustes poliitilise dialoogi kohtumised Norra ja Ameerika Ühendriikidega. Need poliitilise dialoogi kohtumised olid foorumiks, kus peeti viljakaid arutelusid vastastikust huvi pakkuvatel teemadel, nagu konkreetse sihtkohaga seotud ekspordipoliitika, nõuete järgimine ja kontrolliga seotud küsimused ning relvakaubanduslepingu protsess. |
| --- | --- |

73.

| 74. | EL jätkas 2020. aastal õigusaktide korrapärast ajakohastamist, et võtta arvesse arenguid mitmepoolsetes ekspordikontrollisüsteemides. Nii võttis Euroopa Komisjon vastu 7. oktoobri 2020. aasta delegeeritud määruse (EL) 2020/1749, (31) millega ajakohastati ELi kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade kontrollnimekirja kooskõlas mitmepoolsete ekspordikontrollisüsteemide raames 2019. aastal vastu võetud otsustega, ning kehtestas uued kontrollid nt õiguskaitseasutuste jälgimise tarkvara ja digitaalkriminalistika vahendite suhtes. ELi 2020. aasta kontrollnimekirja ajakohastamisega lisati ka 24 täiendava kemikaali, sealhulgas Novitšoki närvimürgi lähteainete kontroll kooskõlas Austraalia grupi istungitevahelisel kohtumisel 2020. aasta veebruaris saavutatud kokkuleppega ning selleks, et tõkestada kauplemist keemiarelvade lähteainetega. |
| --- | --- |

74.

| 75. | Kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade koordineerimisrühm toetas jätkuvalt tõhusa ja järjepideva ekspordikontrolli rakendamist ELis. 2020. aastal võeti kasutusele kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade elektroonilise süsteemi uued funktsioonid, et kohandada süsteemi vastavalt regulatiivsetele muudatustele, nt 2019. aasta ajakohastatud kontrollnimekiri ja pädevate asutuste vahelised turvalised elektroonilised konsultatsioonid. Brexitit silmas pidades võeti kasutusele uus funktsioon, et toetada Põhja-Iirimaa protokolli kohast teabevahetust Ühendkuningriigi pädeva asutusega. EL tegi samuti edusamme, et töötada välja „elektrooniliste lubade platvorm“, mida liikmesriigid saaksid vabatahtlikkuse alusel kasutada, ning alustas tööd kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade elektrooniliste loasüsteemide integreerimiseks tolli elektroonilistesse süsteemidesse ühtse teeninduskeskkonna algatuse raames. Avaldati ekspordikontrolli aastaaruanne (32) läbipaistvuse tagamiseks ekspordikontrolli ja litsentside andmise valdkondades ning 11. detsembril 2020 korraldati ekspordikontrolli foorum, kus osalesid liikmesriikide, tööstuse ja kodanikuühiskonna sidusrühmad (33). |

| 76. | ELi ekspordikontrolli poliitika läbivaatamisel tehti märkimisväärseid edusamme. Nõukogu ja Euroopa Parlament leppisid kokku ELi ekspordikontrolli ajakohastamises. Kontrollide tõhususe ja tulemuslikkuse suurendamiseks tehtud põhjalikud muudatused hõlmavad ajakohastatud määratlusi ja kontrolliparameetreid, lubade andmise ühtlustamist, lihtsustamist ja digiteerimist, suuremat teabevahetust ja koostööd kolmandate riikidega. Uue määrusega muudetakse olemasolev ELi ekspordikontrollisüsteem tõhusamaks, võttes kasutusele uudse inimjulgeolekumõõtme, et EL saaks reageerida probleemidele, mida kujutavad endast kujunemisjärgus kahesuguse kasutusega tehnoloogiad, eelkõige küberseiretehnoloogiad, mis kujutavad endast ohtu riiklikule ja rahvusvahelisele julgeolekule, sealhulgas inimõiguste kaitsele. Uus määrus võetakse ametlikult vastu ja see jõustub 2021. aastal. Pandeemia mõjutas märkimisväärselt mitmepoolsete ekspordikontrollirežiimidega seotud tegevust; täiskogu istungid tuli ära jätta, samas kui virtuaalsed koosolekud võimaldasid töörühmadel teataval määral tööd jätkata. Olenemata sellest osales EL Austraalia grupi istungitevahelisel kohtumisel Bratislavas (5.–7. veebruar 2020). |

77.

| 78. | Jätkati ekspordikontrolli programmi EU P2P intensiivset koordineerimist USA riigidepartemangu ekspordikontrolli ja sellega seotud piirijulgeoleku programmiga. Korraldati ELi ja USA ühiseid seminare, et vahetada teavet ohtude hindamise metoodikate kohta, määrata kindlaks ühised mõjunäitajad ning koordineerida kohapeal osutatavat abi. Välispoliitika vahendite talitus ja JRC korraldasid 17.–21. augustil 2020 veebiformaadis kuuenda EU P2P suveülikooli, millel käsitleti strateegilist kaubanduskontrolli kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade ekspordikontrolli programmi ELi P2P partnerriikides. Euroopa Liidu ametlikku veebikeskkonda (https://europa.eu/cbrn-risk-mitigation/eu-p2p_en) üle viidud EU P2P portaali on 2020. aastal veelgi täiustatud. See toimib jätkuvalt platvormina, mis koondab kõik ELi teavitamisprogrammid sõjaliste ja kahesuguse kasutusega kaupade ekspordikontrolli valdkonnas, eesmärgiga kohandada teabevahetus ELi partnerriikidega vastavalt vajadustele. Seda programmi rahastatakse stabiilsuse ja rahu edendamise rahastamisvahendi alusel. |

| 81. | Raketitehnoloogia kontrollirežiim (MTCR) on mitteametlik ja vabatahtlik ühendus, mille riikidel on ühine eesmärk tõkestada massihävitusrelvi kanda suutvate mehitamata kandesüsteemide levikut ja kes püüavad kooskõlastada riikide ekspordilitsentside andmist, et vältida selliste süsteemide levikut. MTCRis osalevad valitsused on kohustunud järgima ühise ekspordipoliitika suuniseid (MTCRi suunised), mida kohaldatakse kontrollitavate kaupade ühtse loetelu suhtes (MTCRi seadmete, tarkvara ja tehnoloogia lisa). MTCRi partnerid vahetavad korrapäraselt teavet asjaomaste riiklike ekspordilubadega seotud küsimuste kohta. MTCRi suunised ja kontrollnimekirjad on rakettidega seotud kaupade ja tehnoloogia ekspordi kontrollimise rahvusvaheliste parimate tavade võrdlusaluseks. |
| --- | --- |

81.

| 82. | MTCRi kontekstis on ELi jaoks jätkuvalt ülioluliseks küsimuseks, et üheksa ELi liikmesriigi – Horvaatia, Küprose, Eesti, Läti, Leedu, Malta, Rumeenia, Slovakkia ja Sloveenia ühinemine on blokeeritud. |
| --- | --- |

82.

| 83. | MTCRi suguste ekspordikontrollirežiimide toimimise ja usaldusväärsuse jaoks on lisaks võtmetähtsusega nende eesistumise järjepidevus ja prognoositavus. MTCRi liikmeteks olevad ELi liikmesriigid esitasid täiskogu istungile arutamiseks mitteametliku dokumendi „Eesistumisega seotud küsimused“, milles uuriti võimalusi innustada ja toetada režiimi jätkusuutlikku eesistujaks olemist. EL jätkab liikmetega arutelusid erinevate võimaluste üle. EL on režiimi kontekstis alati toetanud tugeva MTCR avalike teadaannete vastuvõtmist, et kajastada rahvusvahelist muret Iraani ja KRDV poolt ballistiliste rakettide väljalaskmise ja kanderakettide tehnoloogia vallas tehtud märkimisväärse arendustöö üle. |

KOSMOS

| 84. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid jätkasid ohutu, turvalise ja jätkusuutliku kosmosekeskkonna säilitamise ning avakosmose rahumeelse kasutamise edendamist võrdsetel ja vastastikku vastuvõetavatel alustel. Rõhutasime jätkuvalt usalduse ja läbipaistvuse suurendamise meetmete tähtsust ning vajadust toetada avakosmoses vastutustundlikku käitumist ÜRO raames. Sellega seoses esitas EL ÜRO Peaassambleel kosmosega seotud avaldused. |
| --- | --- |

84.

| 85. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid on jätkuvalt kindlalt pühendunud võidurelvastumise vältimisele avakosmoses, mis on oluline rahvusvahelise julgeoleku ja stabiilsuse tugevdamiseks ning kosmosekeskkonna rahumeelsel eesmärgil pikaajalise kasutamise tagamiseks. Väljendasime jätkuvalt muret kõigi satelliitidevastaste relvade ja võimete, sealhulgas Maa-põhiste võimete arendamise pärast ning toonitame, kui oluline on tegeleda selliste arengutega kiiresti ja osana rahvusvahelistest jõupingutustest hoida ära võidurelvastumine avakosmoses. |
| --- | --- |

85.

| 86. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid kinnitasid taas oma rahulolu sellega, et vastu on võetud avakosmosetegevuse pikaajalise jätkusuutlikkuse preambul ja 21 suunist, mille avakosmose rahumeelse kasutamise komitee võttis vastu ja mis kiideti heaks ÜRO Peaassamblee 2019. aasta resolutsiooniga (34). Suunised on oluline täiendus avakosmose läbipaistvuse ja usalduse suurendamise meetmetele (35). |
| --- | --- |

86.

| 87. | EL ja selle liikmesriigid väljendasid heameelt uue resolutsiooni vastuvõtmise üle, mis käsitleb ohtude vähendamist vastutustundliku käitumisega, (36) mis on õigeaegne samm avakosmosega seotud ohtude ja riskide vähendamiseks ning vastutustundliku käitumise edendamiseks avakosmoses, eelkõige ÜRO raames. Nad innustasid kõiki riike tegema konstruktiivset koostööd, et saavutada ühine arusaam vastutustundlikust käitumisest avakosmoses, millele EL samuti ühiselt kaasa aitab. |

MASSIHÄVITUSRELVADE LEVIKU TÕKESTAMISE KLAUSLID

| 88. | EL jätkas kooskõlas oma massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise poliitikaga ja nõukogu 2003. aasta järeldustega tööd massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamist käsitlevate kohustuste lisamiseks partnerriikidega sõlmitavatesse lepingutesse. 2020. aastal peeti sel eesmärgil läbirääkimisi ka Ühendkuningriigiga, et valmistada ette Brexitit ning ELi ja Ühendkuningriigi tulevasi suhteid. Kooskõlas ELi ja Kuuba ühisotsusega ELi ja Kuuba vahelise uue lepingu teatavate osade ajutise kohaldamise kohta toimus 2019. aasta märtsis Brüsselis esimene ELi ja Kuuba vaheline massihävitusrelvade leviku tõkestamise dialoog, mis põhines uue lepingu massihävitusrelvi käsitleval klauslil, ning teine dialoog toimus 2020. aasta septembris veebis. |
