Letno poročilo o napredku pri izvajanju strategije Evropske unije proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje za leto (2021)

(2022/C 310/01)

UVOD

| 1. | V tem poročilu o napredku pri izvajanju Strategije Evropske unije proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje, ki jo je Evropski svet sprejel decembra 2003 (dok. 15708/03), so zajete dejavnosti, ki so se izvajale v letu 2021. Poročilo, ki ni izčrpno, se osredotoča le na najpomembnejše dogajanje. |

| 3. | Na večstranske dejavnosti na področju neširjenja orožja in razoroževanja je tudi leta 2021 vplivala pandemija COVID-19, predvsem zaradi omejitev potovanj. Medtem ko je bilo več večstranskih srečanj, med njimi zlasti 10. konferenca o pregledu Pogodbe o neširjenju jedrskega orožja (NPT) in 9. konferenca o pregledu Konvencije o biološkem in toksičnem orožju, preloženih, je bilo veliko drugih mogoče organizirati prek spleta, nekatere pa tudi v živo. Na ta način so se večstranske razprave lahko nadaljevale, pri čemer je treba priznati, da imajo stiki prek videokonference svoje omejitve. |

| 5. | Delovna skupina v okviru Sveta EU za neširjenje orožja (CONOP) se je v letu 2021 redno sestajala, prav tako pa je imela dodatne sestanke, dvakrat tudi na ravni direktorjev, da bi dokončno oblikovala sklepe Sveta o deseti pregledni konferenci pogodbenic Pogodbe o neširjenju jedrskega orožja. O stališčih EU in prihodnjih dejavnostih je enajstkrat razpravljala na virtualnih srečanjih in trikrat na srečanjih v živo. Delegacije EU na Dunaju, v Ženevi in New Yorku so pripravile in uskladile množico izjav EU za večstranske forume, organizirale več spremljevalnih dogodkov in dejavno prispevale k oblikovanju politik prek rednih usklajevalnih sestankov na ravni EU in udeležbe na sejah delovne skupine. |

Pogodba o neširjenju jedrskega orožja in Mednarodna agencija za atomsko energijo

| 8. | Cikel pregleda NPT naj bi se končal aprila/maja 2020 na deseti konferenci o pregledu NPT. Zaradi pandemije COVID-19 in posledičnih omejitev potovanj so se države pogodbenice marca 2020 dogovorile, da pregledno konferenco preložijo na januar 2021. Pozneje istega leta je bila ponovno preložena, okvirno na avgust 2021, nato pa še enkrat na januar 2022 in nazadnje na avgust 2022. EU je prispevala k vsem ustreznim razpravam, organiziranim virtualno in tudi v živo, vključno s splošno razpravo na 75. zasedanju Prvega odbora Generalne skupščine ZN za razorožitev in mednarodno varnost. Tudi posebna odposlanka se je posvetovala z več ključnimi partnerji ter sodelovala na številnih seminarjih in delavnicah. |

| 9. | Izvajanje Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2019/615 (2) o podpori Unije dejavnostim, ki potekajo pred pregledno konferenco NPT se je v letu 2021 nadaljevalo z regionalno delavnico za Bližnji vzhod 13. in 14. novembra 2021 v Amanu, ki jo je organiziral Urad ZN za razorožitev (UN-ODA). Glavni cilj sklepa Sveta je bil prispevati k uspešnemu izidu konference o pregledu NPT ter pripravi realističnega in izvedljivega sklopa ukrepov in priporočil, o katerih je mogoče doseči soglasje. Zaradi pandemije COVID-19 ni bilo mogoče organizirati samo enega preostalega regionalnega srečanja, namenjenega obravnavi vseh treh stebrov NPT skozi prizmo regionalnih prednostnih nalog in pomislekov. Sklep (SZVP) 2019/615 o podpori Unije dejavnostim, ki potekajo pred pregledno konferenco je bil 8. aprila 2021 in 21. septembra 2021 brez dodatnih stroškov podaljšan do 15. januarja 2022, ko je prenehal veljati. |

| 10. | EU je še naprej podpirala – tudi z ustrezno finančno podporo – glavne pristojnosti Mednarodne agencije za atomsko energijo (IAEA) glede zagotavljanja neširjenja orožja s sistemom nadzornih ukrepov, jedrske varnosti, jedrske zaščite, uporabe jedrske energije in tehničnega sodelovanja. EU in Euratom sta dejavno sodelovali na vseh srečanjih upravljavskih organov IAEA, pri čemer se je EU usklajevala na Dunaju. Na 65. generalni konferenci IAEA septembra 2021 na Dunaju sta bili soglasno sprejeti resoluciji o jedrskih nadzornih ukrepih in jedrski varnosti, ki ju je predložila EU. Delegacija EU na Dunaju je med letom usklajevala več kot 40 izjav EU o vseh ustreznih zadevah IAEA. |

12.

| 13. | Trenutno standard za preverjanje določajo celoviti sporazumi o nadzornih ukrepih in dodatni protokoli, EU pa si še naprej prizadeva za njihovo takojšne vsesplošno spoštovanje. Tesno sodelovanje med Euratomom in IAEA omogoča delujoče in učinkovite nadzorne ukrepe. EU dejavno podpira sistem nadzornih ukrepov IAEA prek programa Evropske komisije za podporo nadzornim ukrepom (EC-SP), Instrumenta za sodelovanje na področju jedrske varnosti (INSC) in podpornih programov posameznih držav članic. EC-SP je prej okrepil zmogljivosti za jedrske nadzorne ukrepe IAEA, vključno s strokovnim usposabljanjem direktorjev in zmogljivostmi za preverjanje izvajanja skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja, z zagotavljanjem usposabljanja za inšpektorje IAEA, zadolžene za nadzorne ukrepe, na področju dodatnega dostopa in delovanja COMPUCEA (kombinirani postopek za analizo koncentracije in obogatitve urana) v okviru preverjanja obogatitve snovi UF6, vključno z zadevnimi referenčnimi materiali. EC-SP podpira mrežo analitičnih laboratorijev IAEA pri njihovih pooblastilih za preverjanje v kontekstu skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja, in sicer z analitičnimi storitvami, standardiziranimi metodami in orodji za nadzor kakovosti. Mrežo analitičnih laboratorijev IAEA pri razvoju novih metod in protokolov merjenja za analizo okoljskih vzorcev v skladu z Dodatnim protokolom podpirata zlasti analiza delcev ter proizvodnja in certificiranje referenčnih delcev. EU je v okviru INSC zagotovila finančno podporo za dejavnosti preverjanja v Iranu v skladu s Prilogo I skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja (JCPOA) ter za promocijo državnega sistema vodenja evidence o jedrskih snoveh in nadzora nad njimi (SSAC) v partnerskih državah. |

13.

| 14. | Evropska komisija še naprej vodi in dejavno podpira Evropsko združenje za raziskovanje in razvoj nadzornih ukrepov (ESARDA), ki prav tako nadaljuje svoje mednarodne dejavnosti ozaveščanja z memorandumi o soglasju z Afriško komisijo za jedrsko energijo in Azijsko-pacifiško mrežo za nadzorne ukrepe, pri čemer tesno sodeluje z Inštitutom za ravnanje z jedrskim materialom. Delovne skupine v okviru ESARDA razvijajo, preizkušajo in potrjujejo inovativne nadzorne ukrepe in pristope na področju neširjenja orožja, od česar imata neposredne koristi Direktorat za jedrske nadzorne ukrepe v GD za energetiko in Oddelek za nadzorne ukrepe Mednarodne agencije za atomsko energijo. Kljub omejitvam, povezanim s COVID, so bila izvedena tehnična usposabljanja na daljavo o bogatenju urana, preverjanju izotopne sestave plutonija in lasersko kartiranje za preverjanje zbiralnikov (Laser Mapping for Containment Verification – LMCV) za inšpektorje Euratoma. Pred pandemijo je potekalo tudi usposabljanje iz štetja nevtronov. Uveljavljeni tečaj ESARDA o jedrskih nadzornih ukrepih in neširjenju orožja, ki je bil leta 2020 odpovedan, je bil izveden aprila 2021. Z rezultati raziskav in razvoja ter pobudami na področju izobraževanja in usposabljanja se evropske in mednarodne zmogljivosti na področju jedrskih nadzornih ukrepov in strateškega nadzora trgovine izboljšujejo. Sadovi tega dela pa so bili uporabljeni tudi kot prispevek k pobudam na področju jedrske varnosti in jedrske razorožitve. Skupno raziskovalno središče (JRC) Evropske komisije je izkušnje, ki si jih je pridobilo s tehničnim usposabljanjem na daljavo za inšpektorje za nadzorne ukrepe, izmenjalo z IAEA na tristranskih srečanjih (IAEA, Euratom in JRC).Sploh prvo skupno letno srečanje z Inštitutom za ravnanje z jedrskim materialom je kot virtualni dogodek potekalo konec avgusta 2021. |

| 15. | Evropska komisija je v okviru Instrumenta za sodelovanje na področju jedrske varnosti financirala obsežen projekt usposabljanja in izobraževanja s področja jedrskih nadzornih ukrepov z Evropsko mrežo za jedrsko izobraževanje (ENEN). Na podlagi te pogodbe si ENEN skupaj s Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), JRC, ESARDA in IAEA prizadeva oblikovati prvi akademski podiplomski program s področja jedrskih nadzornih ukrepov, z začetkom v študijskem letu 2021/2022. Po intenzivnem izbirnem postopku je bilo od skupno 66 prijavljenih izbranih 25 študentov in študentk, od katerih jih polovica prihaja iz afriških držav, več kot polovica pa je žensk. Otvoritve magistrskega programa so se med drugimi udeležili generalni direktor IAEA, generalna direktorica Svetovne jedrske zveze (WNA) in izvršni sekretar Afriške komisije za jedrsko energijo (AFCONE), magistrski program pa se izvaja od oktobra 2021. V programu poučuje, podaja virtualna videopredavanja in webinarje, vodi vaje ter izvaja preizkuse znanja do 50 strokovnjakov in strokovnjakinj. |

15.

| 16. | V letu 2021 je bilo v tretjih državah predloženih več demarš EU za spodbujanje krepitve elementov sistema nadzornih ukrepov IAEA, s posebnim poudarkom na univerzalizaciji Spremenjenega protokola o majhnih količinah (SQP) in Dodatnega protokola (AP) (5). Poleg tega je EU marca 2021 v okviru širših prizadevanj dunajske skupine prijateljev Dodatnega protokola na Zelenortskih otokih predložila demaršo v podporo univerzalizaciji Celovitega sporazuma o nadzornih ukrepih (CSA) in njegovega Dodatnega protokola (AP). |

16.

| 17. | EU skupaj z državami članicami pripisuje izredno velik pomen zagotavljanju in stalnemu izboljševanju jedrske varnosti po vsem svetu. S spremenjeno direktivo o jedrski varnosti, ki je začela veljati leta 2017, je pravno uveljavila cilje Dunajske deklaracije o jedrski varnosti. Glavni element spremenjene direktive je uvedba varnostnega cilja za vse upravljavce, da se preprečijo nesreče in večji izpusti radioaktivnih snovi. S spremenjeno direktivo so bili v pravo o Euratomu vključeni tudi tematski medsebojni strokovni pregledi. Prvi evropski tematski medsebojni strokovni pregled je bil uspešno opravljen. Vse države članice EU so nove zahteve prenesle v svoje nacionalno pravo. |

| 18. | EU je miroljubno rabo jedrske energije podprla tako, da je v obdobju 2021–2027 za spodbujanje jedrske varnosti, varstva pred sevanjem ter uporabo učinkovitih in delujočih nadzornih ukrepov v tretjih državah namenila 300 milijonov EUR. Evropska komisija v sodelovanju z IAEA in drugimi partnerji podpira izvajanje osrednjega strateškega načrta za sanacijo okolja v Srednji Aziji, ki bo financiran z namenskega računa za sanacijo okolja, ki ga upravlja Evropska banka za obnovo in razvoj (EBRD). EU se kot največja donatorka še naprej zavzema za sodelovanje z državami upravičenkami (Kirgizistanom, Tadžikistanom in Uzbekistanom), da bi jih spodbudila k angažiranosti in začetku izvajanja konkretnih projektov čiščenja in sanacije. |

18.

| 19. | Skupno raziskovalno središče Evropske komisije (JRC) in IAEA sta še naprej izvajala Practical Arrangements on Cooperation on Nuclear Science Applications (Praktično ureditev o sodelovanju na področju uporabe jedrske znanosti), ki je bila podpisana ob robu petega srečanja višjih uradnikov EU in IAEA 15. februarja 2017 in s katero naj bi vzpostavili skupne dejavnosti in preprečili podvajanje dela. Praktična ureditev vključuje področja, kot so pedologija, medicinske aplikacije, oceanografija, jedrski podatki in referenčni materiali, prehranska varnost, opazovanje zemlje in monitoring okolja.
  Okoljski monitoring radioaktivnosti se izvaja z meritvami po Evropi in na več drugih lokacijah po svetu v obliki povprečnih in maksimalnih hitrosti doze sevanja gama v zadnjih 24 urah. Ti podatki se merijo na okoli 5 500 merilnih mestih, ki jih upravljajo pristojni nacionalni organi v 39 državah, ti pa sporočajo najnovejše radiološke vrednosti Evropski radiološki platformi za izmenjavo podatkov (EURDEP). Sporočilo o radiološki nesreči ali izrednih razmerah se po posvetovanju s pristojnimi nacionalnimi organi pošlje prek omrežij za zgodnje obveščanje, na primer ECURIE, ki ga upravlja Evropska komisija, ali EMERCON, ki ga upravlja IAEA. |

Pogodba o celoviti prepovedi jedrskih poskusov

| 22. | Začetek veljavnosti in univerzalizacija Pogodbe o celoviti prepovedi jedrskih poskusov (CTBT) sta glavna cilja Strategije EU proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje. Vse države članice EU so svojo zavezanost Pogodbi pokazale tako, da so jo ratificirale in že pred začetkom njene veljavnosti začele izvajati iz nje izhajajoče temeljne obveznosti. CTBT je močan ukrep za krepitev zaupanja in varnosti. |
| --- | --- |

22.

| 23. | EU je leta 2021 nadalje izvajala diplomatske dejavnosti v podporo CTBT, prilagojene možnostim, ki so bile zaradi pandemije omejene. V svojih izjavah v zadevnih forumih ter v dvostranskih stikih z zadevnimi državami iz Priloge II in državami, ki vanjo niso vključene, vztrajno poziva k ratifikaciji Pogodbe; k temu je na Konferenci o členu XIV septembra 2021 v New Yorku pozval tudi visoki predstavnik. EU je poleg tega v letu 2021 predložila demarše državam iz Priloge II in državam, ki vanjo niso vključene, v katerih se je zavzela za univerzalizacijo CTBT in začetek njene veljavnosti. Posebna odposlanka za neširjenje orožja in razoroževanje je sodelovala na letni znanstveno-tehnološki konferenci Pripravljalne komisije Organizacije CTBT (CTBTO). Promocija začetka veljavnosti CTBT je bil eden od ukrepov v programu generalnega sekretarja ZN Securing our Common Future: an Agenda for Disarmament (Varovanje naše skupne prihodnosti: agenda za razorožitev), ki ga je EU sklenila podpreti. |

29.

| 30. | Center EU za usposabljanje na področju jedrske varnosti in za odzivanje na nedovoljena dejanja, povezana z jedrskimi in drugimi radioaktivnimi materiali (EUSECTRA), je v celoti operativen od leta 2013 in deluje v korist držav članic Evropske unije in partnerskih držav, med katerimi je več članic GICNT. Center upravlja JRC na lokacijah v Karlsruheju (Nemčija) in Ispri (Italija), v tesnem sodelovanju z drugimi mednarodnimi pobudami, ki jih podpirajo IAEA in več partnerskih držav v okviru GICNT. Center se uporablja tudi za praktične vaje, predvsem v zvezi z bojem proti tihotapljenju jedrskih materialov. EUSECTRA se dejavno posveča potrebam držav članic EU in partnerjev EU po usposabljanju, tudi z usklajenimi usposabljanji za delegate držav članic na carinskem področju in področju kazenskega pregona, ki so že bila izvedena in so načrtovana v obdobju 2019–2022 (v neposrednem sodelovanju z Evropsko komisijo oz. njenima GD HOME in GD TAXUD). EUSECTRA krepi infrastrukturo, ki se uporablja za izvajanje usposabljanja, razvija virtualna učna orodja in na zahtevo držav članic EU zagotavlja oceno učinkovitosti opreme. Zaradi pandemije je bilo usposabljanje v živo omejeno. Razvit je bil hibridni pristop z uporabo sodobnih sredstev, ki se osredotoča na terenske vaje z uporabo instrumentov na daljavo ter dejansko praktično uporabo jedrskih in radioaktivnih materialov za podporo prizadevanjem proti kemičnim, biološkim, radiološkim in jedrskim (KBRJ) grožnjam in jedrskemu terorizmu. |

32.

| 33. | Evropska komisija je v okviru faze II svojega programa ITRAP+10 še naprej razvijala zmogljivosti držav članic EU za preskušanje in ocenjevanje učinkovitosti opreme, ki se uporablja za odkrivanje nedovoljenega prometa z jedrskimi in radioaktivnimi materiali, s čimer je bilo poskrbljeno za nadaljnjo harmonizacijo in standardizacijo, ter znatno prispevala k mednarodnim standardom. |
| --- | --- |

33.

| 34. | Evropska komisija ima še naprej pomembno vlogo v Delovni skupini za nadzor meje za jedrsko varnost. Predsedovala je tako tej skupini kot tudi njenima podskupinama za tehnologije odkrivanja in razvoj zmogljivosti. |
| --- | --- |

34.

| 35. | Evropska komisija je v sodelovanju z IAEA nadaljevala raziskovalno delo v zvezi z razvojem nove tehnike preskusov brez porušitve, in sicer odložene gama spektrometrije za preverjanje specifičnih značilnosti jedrskih materialov. V okviru podpornega programa za IAEA je bil predložen skupni ukrep. |

35.

| 36. | Leta 2020 je GD Evropske komisije TAXUD s podporo JRC in EUSECTRA zagnal interaktivni program e-učenja za podporo carinikom, ki se seznanjajo z nadzorom meja z vidika radioaktivnih in jedrskih materialov. Osnovni modul prikazuje pomembno vlogo, ki jo imajo cariniki pri odkrivanju jedrskih in radioaktivnih materialov. Obenem jih seznanja s tveganji in grožnjami, vključuje pa tudi osnovno predstavitev zadevnih materialov, opreme in postopkov. V nadaljevalnem modulu so iste teme obravnavane podrobneje. Oba tečaja vključujeta realistične scenarije v morskih pristaniščih, na letališčih, železnicah in kopenskih mejah, ki udeležencem omogočajo, da preskusijo svoje odločanje. Sodelovanje med GD TAXUD in JRC je izboljšalo sinergije med carinskimi upravami držav članic. Usposabljanja, ki se izvajajo v centru EUSECTRA, bodo nacionalnim strokovnjakom služila kot platforma za izmenjavo najboljših praks na področju jedrske varnosti pri zaščiti meja, kar bo prispevalo k razvoju harmoniziranih postopkov. To je del odločnih prizadevanj za skupen boj proti trgovini z jedrskim orožjem in olajšanje trgovine prek carinskih kontrolnih točk. Končni cilj je, da se s spodbujanjem skupne kulture jedrske varnosti preprečuje, da bi posamezniki dobili dostop do škodljivih materialov. |

Regionalna vprašanja

| 38. | Skupni celoviti načrt ukrepanja je ključen element globalne strukture za boj proti širjenju jedrskega orožja in rezultat večstranske diplomacije. Celovito izvajanje tega sporazuma je bistveno za varnost v Evropi. EU je večkrat izrazila obžalovanje nad zmanjševanjem jedrskih zavez Irana v okviru skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja, ki se je začelo julija 2019 in nadaljevalo skozi leti 2020 in 2021. Ukrepi, s katerimi nadaljuje Iran, niso skladni s skupnim celovitim načrtom ukrepanja in imajo hude, v nekaterih primerih nepopravljive, posledice na področju širjenja orožja. EU še naprej poziva Iran, naj prekliče vse dejavnosti, ki niso v skladu s skupnim celovitim načrtom ukrepanja, ter nemudoma ponovno začne dosledno izvajati svoje jedrske zaveze, zlasti določbe o preglednosti iz Dodatnega protokola in skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja. Visoki predstavnik EU je kot koordinator skupne komisije za skupni celoviti načrt ukrepanja še naprej v celoti zavezan ohranitvi skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja in njegovemu doslednemu izvajanju. Zato je bil v letu 2021 diplomatsko zelo dejaven z vsemi udeleženci pri skupnem celovitem načrtu ukrepanja in Združenimi državami, da bi zagotovil ponovni začetek njegovega doslednega in učinkovitega izvajanja. |

| 39. | Obenem tudi EU še naprej prispeva k njegovemu izvajanju z usklajevanjem dela skupne komisije in dela strokovnih delovnih skupin, ustanovljenih v njegovem okviru. Prav tako še naprej podpira dolgoročno poslanstvo IAEA, da preverja in spremlja, kako Iran izpolnjuje zaveze, povezane z jedrskim vprašanjem. EU kljub omejitvam zaradi COVID še naprej sodeluje z Iranom na področju jedrske energije za civilne namene iz Priloge III k skupnemu celovitemu načrtu ukrepanja na področju jedrske varnosti.
  V okviru sodelovanja med EU in Iranom na področju jedrske energije za civilne namene se zagotavlja podpora za posodobitev raziskovalnega reaktorja v Araku (Khondab), podpora iranskemu regulatorju za jedrsko varnost (INRA), tudi za ustanovitev centra za jedrsko varnost v Teheranu, za katerega EU še naprej dobavlja potrebno opremo, in podpora izvajanju stresnih testov v jedrski elektrarni Bushehr ter dejavnostim IAEA za preverjanje in spremljanje v Iranu. Sistem za nabave v okviru skupnega celovitega načrta ukrepanja, v sklopu katerega se pregledujejo prenosi jedrskega blaga ali blaga z dvojno rabo v Iran, je še naprej popolnoma operativen. Delegacija EU na Dunaju je v letu 2021 organizirala osem srečanj Delovne skupine za nabave in jim tudi predsedovala. |

| 40. | EU in njene države članice so še naprej pozivale Demokratsko ljudsko republiko Korejo (DLRK), naj sprejme konkretne ukrepe za popolno in nepovratno odpravo svoje jedrske oborožitve, obstoječega jedrskega programa, balističnih izstrelkov in kakršnega koli drugega orožja za množično uničevanje, na način, ki bo omogočal preverjanje. To se je odražalo v vseh ustreznih izjavah EU. EU je izrazila zaskrbljenost zaradi napovedi DLRK na 8. kongresu stranke, da bo nadalje razvijala jedrsko orožje in njegove nosilce, ter prikaza očitno novih izstrelitvenih sistemov na veliki paradi januarja 2021. Obsodila je sledeče destabilizirajoče dejavnosti DLRK, med katerimi so bili izstrelitev balističnih izstrelkov kratkega dosega, izstrelitev balističnega izstrelka s podmornice, izstrelek, očitno opremljen s hipersonično drsno bojno glavo, izstreljevanje izstrelkov z vlaka in drugih vozil ter preizkušanje novih vrst manevrirnih izstrelkov. EU se je zavzemala za usklajenost sporočil enako mislečih držav, izraženih v obsodbah kršitev več resolucij Varnostnega sveta ZN s strani DLRK. Zagotovila je dosledno izvajanje sankcij, ki jih je uvedel Varnostni svet ZN in ki so bile prenesene v pravo EU, pa tudi dodatnih samostojnih ukrepov EU.
  EU je spodbujala vse države članice ZN, naj v celoti izvajajo sankcije ZN, tudi z diplomatskimi demaršami v več kot sedemdesetih državah in doslednim komuniciranjem s skupino strokovnjakov ZN in Odborom 1718. Istočasno je DLRK pozivala, naj se konstruktivno odzove na pripravljenost Združenih držav za dialog in se vključi v smiselne razprave z vsemi zadevnimi stranmi, ter opozarjala na svojo nadaljnjo pripravljenost, da podpre nov diplomatski proces. DLRK je pozvala, naj v celoti izpolnjuje vse ustrezne resolucije Varnostnega sveta ZN in svoje druge mednarodne obveznosti in zaveze, naj začne ponovno spoštovati celoviti sporazum IAEA o nadzornih ukrepih in uveljavi Dodatni protokol, poziva pa jo tudi, naj podpiše in ratificira Pogodbo o celoviti prepovedi jedrskih poskusov. |

| 48. | EU in njene države članice odločno podpirajo Konvencijo o prepovedi biološkega in toksičnega orožja (BTWC) ter so zelo vključene v mednarodna prizadevanja za izboljšanje biološke varnosti in biološke zaščite po vsem svetu. EU je s skupnimi ukrepi in sklepi Sveta od leta 2006 za neposredno podporo BTWC zagotovila več kot 11 milijonov EUR. Poleg tega je zagotovila dodatnih 6 milijonov EUR v podporo krepitvi biološke varnosti in zaščite v Ukrajini in številnih državah Latinske Amerike ter v podporo mehanizmu generalnega sekretarja ZN za preiskovanje domnevne uporabe kemičnega in biološkega orožja. |

| 49. | V letu 2021 se je nadaljevalo izvajanje Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2019/97 z dne 21. januarja 2019 v podporo Konvenciji o prepovedi biološkega in toksičnega orožja v okviru strategije EU proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje (13), vendar je Svet zaradi znatnega vpliva, ki ga je imela pandemija COVID-19 na njegovo izvajanje, sprejel sklep o enoletnem podaljšanju brez dodatnih stroškov . S Sklepom je bil Uradu ZN za razoroževanje (UN-ODA) za obdobje 2019–2023 zagotovljen proračun v višini 3 milijone EUR. To bo Enoti za podporo izvajanju BTWC omogočilo izvedbo šestih novih projektov v podporo univerzalizaciji te konvencije; razvoj zmogljivosti za nacionalno izvajanje BTWC, vključno s tremi medsebojnimi strokovnimi pregledi; spodbujanje mrež za biološko varnost na južni polobli; oblikovanje orodij za ozaveščanje, izobraževanje in sodelovanje; izboljšanje pripravljenosti za odzivanje na napade z biološkimi sredstvi. |

BALISTIČNI IZSTRELKI

Haaški kodeks ravnanja

| 55. | Haaški kodeks ravnanja proti širjenju balističnih izstrelkov (HCoC) je rezultat prizadevanj mednarodne skupnosti za ureditev področja balističnih izstrelkov, ki jih je mogoče uporabiti kot nosilce orožja za množično uničevanje. HCoC je edini večstranski instrument, namenjen krepitvi preglednosti in zaupanja, ki ureja širjenje balističnih izstrelkov. Članice so se s podpisom HCoC prostovoljno zavezale, da bodo predhodno priglaševale izstreljevanje balističnih in nosilnih raket ter preskusnih poletov. Države, ki so podpisale HCoC, so se tudi zavezale, da bodo vsako leto predložile izjavo o svoji politiki glede balističnih izstrelkov in nosilnih raket. |
| --- | --- |

55.

| 56. | EU kodeks že od vsega začetka odločno podpira. K njemu so pristopile vse države članice EU. Od podpisa in začetka veljavnosti politično zavezujočega HCoC novembra 2002 v Haagu na Nizozemskem se je število podpisnic s 93 povzpelo na 143. K temu so med drugim pripomogla neprestana diplomatska prizadevanja EU v podporo univerzalizaciji kodeksa v številnih državah nepodpisnicah. Dvajseta obletnica kodeksa leta 2022 bo priložnost za okrepitev stikov z državami nepodpisnicami. |
| --- | --- |

56.

| 57. | Svet EU je v zadnjem desetletju sprejel vrsto sklepov SZVP v podporo haaškemu kodeksu ravnanja in neširjenju balističnih izstrelkov. EU s temi sklepi Sveta finančno podpira dejavnosti ozaveščanja o HCoC, med drugim dogodke ob robu, raziskave, sestanke strokovnjakov in regionalne seminarje, namenjene ozaveščanju. Te dejavnosti izvaja Fondation pour la Recherche Stratégique s sedežem v Parizu, ponavadi pa pri njih sodeluje tudi rotirajoče predsedstvo HCoC. Odkar HCoC obstaja, mu je predsedovalo več držav članic EU, ki so bistveno prispevale k njegovemu delu. |
| --- | --- |

57.

| 58. | EU s Sklepom Sveta (SZVP) 2017/2370 (18) še naprej: promovira podpis kodeksa in naposled njegovo univerzalnost; podpira dosledno izvajanje kodeksa; spodbuja dialog med državami podpisnicami in nepodpisnicami, da bi se krepila zaupanje in preglednost; spodbuja zadržanost in skrbi za vsesplošno utrjevanje stabilnosti in varnosti; krepi prepoznavnost kodeksa in javnost ozavešča o tveganjih in nevarnostih širjenja balističnih izstrelkov ter preučuje, zlasti z znanstvenimi študijami, kako bi lahko izboljšali kodeks in spodbudili povezovanje kodeksa in drugih ustreznih večstranskih instrumentov. Leta 2021 je bilo zaradi izzivov pri izvajanju med pandemijo COVID-19 obdobje izvajanja Sklepa (SZVP) 2017/2370 podaljšano do 21. januarja 2023. |

RESOLUCIJA VARNOSTNEGA SVETA ZDRUŽENIH NARODOV 1540 IN ZMANJŠEVANJE KBRJ OGROŽENOSTI

| 60. | Resolucija Varnostnega sveta ZN (RVSZN) 1540 (2004) ostaja osrednji temelj mednarodne ureditve neširjenja orožja. Je prvi mednarodni instrument, ki na enovit in celovit način obravnava orožje za množično uničevanje, njegove nosilce in pripadajoče materiale. RVSZN 1540 (2004) določa zavezujoče obveznosti za vse države. Njihov cilj je nedržavnim akterjem preprečiti dostop do takšnega orožja in njegovih nosilcev ter z njim povezanih materialov in jih od tega odvračati. Resolucija je bila sprejeta na podlagi poglavja VII Ustanovne listine Združenih narodov in od vseh držav zahteva, naj sprejmejo potrebno zakonodajo, da nedržavni akterji ne bi prišli do jedrskega, kemičnega ali biološkega orožja, in naj vzpostavijo ustrezen notranji nadzor nad materiali, povezanimi s takšnim orožjem, da se prepreči nedovoljena trgovina z njimi. Celovit proces pregleda RVSZN 1540 v letu 2016 je ponovno potrdil središčnost, pomen in avtoriteto resolucije, kot je potrjeno v RVSZN 2325. |
| --- | --- |

60.

| 61. | Da bi prispevali k uresničevanju rezultatov celovitega pregleda iz leta 2016 in podprli dosledno izvajanje RVSZN 1540, je bil 11. maja 2017 sprejet Sklep Sveta (SZVP) 2017/809 (19) v podporo pri izvajanju Resolucije Varnostnega sveta Združenih narodov 1540 (2004) o neširjenju orožja za množično uničevanje in njegovih nosilcev.
  Ta sklep Sveta zajema obdobje 56 mesecev, izvaja pa ga UN-ODA v New Yorku, ki je nekaj nalog v zvezi s tem prenesel na OVSE na Dunaju. EU s svojimi finančnimi sredstvi podpira države pri določanju potrebne konkretne tehnične pomoči, ozavešča o ustreznih programih tehnične pomoči ter krepi sodelovanje z mednarodnimi in regionalnimi organizacijami v podporo razvoju nacionalnih zmogljivosti. |

| 62. | JRC je predsedniku Odbora 1540 uradno poslal izvod strateškega trgovinskega atlasa, ki sta ga skupaj pripravila JRC in Nacionalni laboratorij Argonne Ministrstva za energijo ZDA. Strateški trgovinski atlas je bil oblikovan za spodbujanje razumevanja svetovnih trgovinskih tokov strateškega blaga, tj. blaga vojaške strateške vrednosti, vključno z blagom z dvojno rabo. Atlas je objavljen v dveh zvezkih in vsebuje mnenja o strateški trgovini po državah (20) in primarnih proizvodih (21). Strateški trgovinski atlas med drugim uporablja Svetovna carinska organizacija. Zato se je zdel zanimiv za skupino strokovnjakov Odbora 1540. |

| 63. | Pobuda EU za centre odličnosti (CoE) za zmanjševanje KBRJ ogroženosti je bila leta 2010 oblikovana kot svetovni program za razvoj zmogljivosti za zmanjševanje namerno povzročenih, nenamerno nastalih ali naravnih tveganj v zvezi s kemičnimi, biološkimi, radiološkimi in jedrskimi snovmi ali dejavniki ter tveganj za z njimi povezane objekte ali območja. Pobuda EU CBRN CoE trenutno povezuje 62 partnerskih držav, združenih v osem regionalnih sekretariatov v naslednjih regijah: afriška atlantska obala, Srednja Azija, Vzhodna in Srednja Afrika, države Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu, Bližnji vzhod, Severna Afrika in Sahel, Jugovzhodna Azija ter Jugovzhodna in Vzhodna Evropa. |
| --- | --- |

63.

| 64. | Pobuda EU CBRN CoE se je financirala v okviru Instrumenta za prispevanje k stabilnosti in miru, ki se je končal leta 2020, nadomestil pa ga je Instrument za sosedstvo ter razvojno in mednarodno sodelovanje (NDICI) za obdobje 2021–2027. Glede na poročilo Evropskega računskega sodišča iz leta 2018 (Posebno poročilo ERS št. 14/2018) je bil v okviru pobude EU CBRN CoE dosežen napredek pri blaženju tveganj, povezanih s kemičnimi, biološkimi, radiološkimi in jedrskimi snovmi, in sicer z izboljšanjem sodelovanja na nacionalni in regionalni ravni ter razvijanjem kulture varnosti in sodelovanja. Sodelujočim državam se zagotavlja podpora pri njihovih prizadevanjih, da bi prostovoljno in po regionalnem pristopu, ki temelji na povpraševanju, vzpostavile usklajevalne in upravljalne strukture na nacionalni in regionalni ravni. V okviru teh platform se na podlagi konkretnih potreb, ocen tveganja in nacionalnih akcijskih načrtov oblikujejo in krepijo nacionalne KBRJ politike in razvijajo zmogljivosti. Podpira jih več regionalnih projektov sodelovanja, financiranih v okviru pobude, vendar ostajajo odprte tudi za financiranje iz drugih instrumentov. Od leta 2010 je bilo financiranih 90 regionalnih projektov. Proračun pobude za enajstletno obdobje, ki se je začelo leta 2010, znaša okoli 275 milijonov EUR. |
| --- | --- |

64.

| 65. | Mreža centrov odličnosti je zdaj dobro razvita. Poleg tega se je med pandemijo COVID-19 izkazalo, da je zanesljiva in trajnostna, ko je več regionalnih sekretariatov začelo vrsto spletnih seminarjev za izmenjavo strokovnega znanja ter izmenjavo izkušenj in najboljših praks za obvladovanje epidemij. S pomočjo ad hoc podpore je več držav vzpostavilo ustrezne postopke za odkrivanje prvih primerov okužbe. Z dolgoročno pomočjo s posebnim poudarkom na Afriki se bo še naprej povečevala zmogljivost za zgodnje odkrivanje in nadzor zelo nevarnih patogenov s pristopom „eno zdravje“. V različnih regijah (Osrednja Azija, Jugovzhodna in Vzhodna Evropa, Bližnji vzhod) se razvijajo ali so bili že razviti regionalni akcijski načrti na področju KBRJ in medregionalno sodelovanje.
  Pobuda je poleg tega dovolj napredovala, da omogoča nadaljnje ukrepe za reševanje vprašanj s področja upravljanja varnosti, povezanih s kibernetsko kriminaliteto, terorizmom, kritično infrastrukturo, ponarejenimi zdravili, hibridnimi grožnjami in eksplozivi, ter da nadalje razvija sodelovanje na področjih jedrske forenzike, mejnih kontrol in nadzora izvoza blaga z dvojno rabo. Med dejavnostmi, ki jih podpira pobuda, so izvajanje dejavnosti izobraževanje in usposabljanje o jedrski varnosti za izboljšanje jedrske varnosti, organizacija simulacij in terenskih vaj na področju tihotapljenja jedrskega materiala, usposabljanje mladih strokovnjakov za jedrsko varnost in vzpostavitev regionalnega informacijskega sistema za jedrsko forenziko. |

| 66. | Kar zadeva notranje vidike zmanjševanja KBRJ groženj, je bilo izvajanje Akcijskega načrta za okrepitev pripravljenosti na kemična, biološka, radiološka in jedrska varnostna tveganja, ki ga je Komisija predstavila oktobra 2017 kot del širšega svežnja ukrepov za boj proti terorizmu, pregledano proti koncu leta 2019, dokument pa še vedno velja za veljavni okvir politike na področju KBRJ. Agenda za boj proti terorizmu iz leta 2020 je okrepila nekatere vidike KBRJ, in sicer v zvezi z nevarnostjo kemičnih snovi in v zvezi z biološko varnostjo. Kar zadeva prvo, Komisija trenutno preučuje izvedljivost omejitve dostopa do nekaterih kemikalij, ki se lahko uporabljajo za zlonamerne namene. Delo v zvezi z odkrivanjem KBRJ snovi – vključno s preskusi opreme, ki jih usklajuje Komisija in so jih izvedle nekatere države članice – je napredovalo v skladu z načrti. Vendar je bilo treba nekatere dejavnosti na področju KBRJ, ki so se začele leta 2019, leta 2020 ustaviti; zlasti kampanjo usposabljanja organov kazenskega pregona EU na temo radioloških groženj, ki se je izvajala v centru za usposabljanje EUSECTRA v Karlsruheju v Nemčiji. |
| --- | --- |

66.

| 67. | Izvajanje akcijskega načrta se podpira s projekti, ki so sofinancirani iz Sklada za notranjo varnost – policija. Med izbranimi pobudami sta bili dve posebej pomembni za politiko na področju KBRJ. Cilj ene od njih (Mall-CBRN) je izboljšati zaščito in pripravljenost na področju KBRJ v velikih nakupovalnih središčih, medtem ko se v okviru druge (Safe Stadium) podoben pristop uporablja za velika športna prizorišča, zlasti nogometne stadione. Ena od prednosti obeh pobud je prisotnost zadevnih končnih uporabnikov v konzorcijih, npr. nogometnega kluba Real Madrid. |

MOŽGANSKI TRUSTI

| 68. | Izvajanje strategije EU proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje je na podlagi Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2010/430/SZVP (22) dejavno podprl Konzorcij EU za neširjenje orožja in razoroževanje, ki je začel delovati januarja 2011. Svet je 26. februarja 2018 sprejel Sklep (SZVP) 2018/299 (23), v katerem je na podlagi dosedanjih dosežkov in z uvedbo novih projektov dodatno razširil podporo EU dejavnostim konzorcija za obdobje 2018–2022. |
| --- | --- |

68.

| 69. | Konzorcij je s svojimi dejavnostmi izboljšal prepoznavnost EU v tretjih državah in civilni družbi, bistveno pa je prispeval tudi k oblikovanju politike EU na področju neširjenja orožja in razoroževanja. Konzorcij zagotavlja platformo za neformalne stike med praktiki ter spodbuja dialog med različnimi deležniki. S svojimi dejavnostmi prispeva k boljši ozaveščenosti o izzivih, ki ju predstavljata orožje za množično uničevanje in konvencionalno orožje, in iskanju rešitev za obvladovanje teh izzivov. Opira se na široko mrežo 104 možganskih trustov in raziskovalnih centrov po vsej Evropi, v katerih sodelujejo člani iz vseh držav članic EU, pa tudi partnerskih držav, kot so Norveška, Srbija, Švica, Turčija in Ukrajina. V letu 2021 se je mreži pridružilo pet inštitutov. |

| 70. | Na vseh dogodkih, ki jih je organiziral konzorcij, je bila zagotovljena raznolikost udeležencev in govornikov, in sicer z vidika spola, starosti, strokovnega znanja in geografske zastopanosti. Zaradi razmer, ki jih je povzročila pandemija COVID-19, so leta 2021 ti dogodki, razen enega, potekali v virtualni ali hibridni obliki. Konzorcij je v letu 2021 organiziral naslednje dejavnosti za izvajanje različnih vidikov Sklepa (SZVP) 2018/299:

NADZOR IZVOZA

| 72. | Delovna skupina Sveta za izvoz konvencionalnega orožja (COARM) je leta 2021 nadaljevala delo v zvezi z uresničevanjem konkretnih ciljev iz sklepov Sveta o pregledu Skupnega stališča 2008/944 SZVP o nadzoru izvoza orožja (25). Pripravila je sklep Sveta o dovoljenjih za končne uporabnike za izvoz osebnega in lahkega orožja ter pripadajočega streliva. Ta sklep je bil sprejet januarja 2021 in prispeva k nadaljnjemu zbliževanju politik držav članic na področju izvoza orožja. ESZD je začela pripravljati podatkovno zbirko uradnikov, pristojnih za izdajanje dovoljenj, s čimer se bodo politike držav članic na področju izvoza orožja še bolj zbližale. Delovna skupina COARM je še naprej ozaveščala različne deležnike, vključno z organizacijami civilne družbe, Mednarodnim odborom Rdečega križa in predstavniki evropske obrambne industrije, ter bila z njimi v rednem dialogu. |

72.

| 73. | EU je nadaljevala tudi dejavnosti ozaveščanja, da bi tretjim državam pomagala pri vzpostavljanju sistema za nadzor izvoza orožja in spodbudila univerzalizacijo PTO. Na podlagi Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2020/1464 z dne 12. oktobra 2020 o spodbujanju učinkovitega nadzora izvoza orožja (26), ki ga izvaja Nemški zvezni urad za gospodarske zadeve in nadzor izvoza (BAFA), je bilo organiziranih več delavnic in individualnih dogodkov za pomoč, zaradi pandemije večinoma v virtualni obliki. Poleg tega so na podlagi Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2017/915 (27) in njegovega naslednika Sklepa Sveta (SZVP) 2021/2309 z dne 22. decembra 2021 o dejavnostih ozaveščanja Unije v podporo izvajanju Pogodbe o trgovini z orožjem (28), ki ju izvajata BAFA in Expertise France, potekale še druge regionalne dejavnosti ozaveščanja, posebej prilagojeni nacionalni programi pomoči in priložnostne delavnice za individualno pomoč. EU se je leta 2021 odločila, da bo s Sklepom Sveta (SZVP) 2021/649 (29) podprla dejavnosti sekretariata PTO v podporo izvajanju Pogodbe o trgovini z orožjem. S tem projektom se dodatno krepi večstranski okvir podpore, na katerem temelji Pogodba o trgovini z orožjem. |
| --- | --- |

73.

| 74. | V okviru političnega dialoga o vprašanjih s področja nadzora izvoza orožja sta bili leta 2021 izvedeni srečanji z Norveško in Združenimi državami Amerike. Ta politična dialoga so bila priložnost za tvorne razprave o zadevah vzajemnega interesa, kot so politike izvoza v določene namembne države, vprašanja skladnosti in nadzora ter uveljavljanje Pogodbe o trgovini z orožjem. |

74.

| 75. | EU je v Prvem odboru GS ZN aktivno nasprotovala kitajski resoluciji z naslovom „Promoting International Cooperation on Peaceful Uses in the Context of International Security“ (Spodbujanje mednarodnega sodelovanja pri miroljubni rabi v kontekstu mednarodne varnosti). Kitajska je predložila resolucijo, v kateri je sekretariat ZN pozvala, naj pridobi mnenja vseh držav članic ZN o takoimenovanih neutemeljenih omejitvah za izvoz občutljivega in nadzorovanega blaga v države v razvoju. EU meni, da se s to resolucijo ustvarja lažno razlikovanje med miroljubno uporabo jedrskega, kemičnega in biološkega materiala na eni strani ter ukrepi in režimi za nadzor izvoza na drugi strani. Nadzor izvoza je potreben za ohranjanje mednarodnega miru in varnosti ter preprečevanje širjenja občutljivega blaga in materiala. Sedanji režimi za nadzor izvoza izhajajo iz mednarodnih pravnih obveznosti |
| --- | --- |

75.

| 76. | EU je tudi v letu 2021 z rednim posodabljanjem svojih predpisov sledila spremembam pri večstranskih režimih za nadzor izvoza. Zato je Evropska komisija 20. oktobra 2021 sprejela delegirano uredbo, s katero je posodobila kontrolni seznam EU za blago z dvojno rabo v skladu z odločitvami, sprejetimi v okviru večstranskih režimov za nadzor izvoza v letu 2020. Na posodobljenem kontrolnem seznamu je tudi nova opomba o nadzoru nad laboratorijskimi komorami za ravnanje z biološkimi agensi, izolatorji ali biološko varnimi kabinami za normalno delovanje, tako da so vključeni vsi izolatorji z vsemi navedenimi značilnostmi ne glede na njihovo uporabo ali ime. Spremenjena je tudi opredelitev pojma „superzlitina“, tako da je določena natezna trdnost takih materialov. |
| --- | --- |

76.

| 77. | Usklajevalna skupina za blago z dvojno rabo je še naprej prispevala k učinkovitemu in doslednemu izvajanju nadzora izvoza v EU. Leta 2021 so bile razvite nove funkcije „elektronskega sistema za blago z dvojno rabo“, ki omogočajo uporabo novih določb Uredbe, npr. izmenjavo informacij o zavrnitvah prenosov zelo občutljivega blaga znotraj EU. Uvedena je bila tudi nova funkcija za podporo izmenjave informacij s pristojnim organom Združenega kraljestva v skladu s Protokolom za Severno Irsko. Po večletnih pripravah je bil leta 2021 v dveh državah članicah (Latviji in Romuniji) uveden elektronski sistem za izdajanje dovoljenj, ki ga je razvila Komisija, druge države članice pa so nadaljevale priprave na njegovo uvedbo leta 2022. Za zagotovitev preglednosti pri nadzoru izvoza in izdajanju dovoljenj je bilo objavljeno letno poročilo o nadzoru izvoza (30), 8. decembra 2021 pa je bil organiziran forum o nadzoru izvoza 2021, na katerem so se srečali deležniki iz držav članic, industrije in civilne družbe (31). |
| --- | --- |

77.

| 78. | Na podlagi pregleda politike EU za nadzor izvoza je bila 20. maja 2021 sprejeta nova Uredba (EU) 2021/821 (32), ki je začela veljati septembra 2021. Celovite spremembe, ki se uvajajo z novo uredbo za večjo učinkovitost in uspešnost nadzora, vključujejo posodobljene opredelitve in kontrolne parametre, harmonizacijo, poenostavitev in digitalizacijo izdajanja dovoljenj, povečano izmenjavo informacij in sodelovanje s tretjimi državami. Nova uredba uvaja novo razsežnost „človekove varnosti“, da bi se EU lahko odzvala na izzive, ki jih prinašajo nastajajoče tehnologije z dvojno rabo – zlasti tehnologije za kibernetski nadzor –, ki ogrožajo nacionalno in mednarodno varnost, vključno z varstvom človekovih pravic. Določa tudi, da se lahko EU odzove na izzive, ki jih prinašajo nastajajoče tehnologije. |
| --- | --- |

78.

| 79. | Pandemija je v letu 2021 še naprej močno vplivala na dejavnosti večstranskih režimov za nadzor izvoza; plenarna zasedanja je bilo treba odpovedati, preložiti ali izvesti v skrčeni obliki, delovne skupine pa so prek virtualnih sej z nekaterimi dejavnostmi kljub temu lahko nadaljevale in sprejemale so se odločitve o tehničnih predlogih. EU je sodelovala na zasedanjih Avstralske skupine in Skupine držav dobaviteljic jedrskega blaga. Čeprav je plenarno zasedanje skupine držav dobaviteljic jedrskega blaga potekalo v skrčeni fizični obliki, odločanje pa je bilo omejeno in zato smernice skupine niso bile spremenjene, je bilo to zasedanje ključno za ohranjanje neprekinjenega delovanja skupine. |
| --- | --- |

79.

| 80. | Nadaljevalo se je izvajanje P2P programa EU za nadzor izvoza (EU P2P Export Control Programme), namenjenega povečanju učinkovitosti sistemov za nadzor izvoza blaga z dvojno rabo ter pripadajočih materialov, opreme in tehnologije, v šestih regijah. Leta 2021 je bilo v program vključenih 41 držav, pri čemer 14 izmed njih sodeluje pri ciljno usmerjenih pobudah za nadzor izvoza z ukrajinskim Znanstvenim in tehnološkim centrom ter Mednarodnim znanstvenim in tehnološkim centrom iz Kazahstana. Organiziranih je bilo več regionalnih delavnic, nacionalnih dogodkov za pomoč in priložnostnih podpornih seminarjev, zaradi pandemije večinoma v virtualni obliki. |
| --- | --- |

80.

| 81. | Nadaljevalo se je intenzivno usklajevanje P2P programa EU za nadzor izvoza s programom za nadzor izvoza in varnost na mejah, ki ga vodi ministrstvo ZDA za zunanje zadeve. EU in ZDA so organizirale skupne seminarje za izmenjavo informacij o metodologijah za oceno ogroženosti, opredelitev skupnih kazalnikov učinka in usklajevanje pomoči na terenu. Služba za instrumente zunanje politike (FPI) in JRC sta za partnerske države P2P programa EU za nadzor izvoza od 16. do 20. avgusta 2021 v virtualni obliki organizirala sedmo poletno šolo o strateškem nadzoru trgovine. P2P portal EU https://cbrn-risk-mitigation.network.europa.eu/eu-p2p-export-control-programme_en se še naprej uporablja kot platforma za vse programe EU za ozaveščanje o nadzoru izvoza konvencionalnega orožja in blaga z dvojno rabo s ciljem prilagajanja izmenjave informacij s partnerskimi državami EU. Program se bo še naprej financiral v okviru Instrumenta za sosedstvo ter razvojno in mednarodno sodelovanje – Globalna Evropa. |
| --- | --- |

81.

| 82. | JRC je leta 2021 objavilo drugo revizijo Priročnika o nadzoru izvoza kemikalij in bazo podatkov dalo na voljo tudi na svojem portalu (33). |
| --- | --- |

82.

| 83. | Januarja 2021 je Skupno raziskovalno središče Komisije objavilo novo spletno platformo o blagu z dvojno rabo TIM, ki omogoča kartiranje več kot 70 milijonov raziskovalnih povzetkov (Scopus), patentov (Patstat) in projektov, ki jih financira EU (zbirka CORDIS), z več kot 200 iskalnimi algoritmi, ki izpostavljajo dokumente, ki bi bili lahko pomembni za dvojno rabo (34). |
| --- | --- |

83.

| 84. | Režim kontrole raketne tehnologije (MTCR) je neformalna in prostovoljna povezava držav, ki imajo iste cilje glede neširjenja avtomatskih izstrelitvenih sistemov brez posadke, ki lahko nosijo orožje za množično uničevanje, in ki si prizadevajo uskladiti nacionalna prizadevanja v zvezi z izdajanjem izvoznih dovoljenj, s katerimi želijo preprečiti širjenja takšnega orožja. Vlade, ki sodelujejo pri MTCR, so se zavezale, da bodo spoštovale skupne smernice glede izvozne politike (Smernice MTCR), ki se uporabljajo za celoten skupni seznam nadzorovanega blaga (Priloga MTCR o opremi, programski opremi in tehnologiji). Partnerji pri MTCR redno izmenjujejo informacije o zadevnih nacionalnih vprašanjih v zvezi z izdajanjem izvoznih dovoljenj. Smernice in kontrolni seznami, pripravljeni v okviru MTCR, predstavljajo mednarodno merilo za najboljše prakse pri nadzoru izvoza predmetov in tehnologij, povezanih z raketami. |
| --- | --- |

84.

| 85. | Ključno vprašanje za EU v okviru MTCR ostaja blokiran pristop k režimu devetih držav članic EU, in sicer Hrvaške, Cipra, Estonije, Latvije, Litve, Malte, Romunije, Slovaške in Slovenije. |
| --- | --- |

85.

| 86. | Kontinuiteta in predvidljivost pri predsedovanju režimom za nadzor izvoza, kot je MTCR, je ključno za delovanje in verodostojnost teh režimov. Države članice EU, ki so članice MTCR, so za plenarno zasedanje predložile neuradni dokument o vprašanjih, povezanih s predsedovanjem, v katerem so ugotavljale, kako bi lahko spodbudili in podprli trajnostno predsedovanje režimu. EU bo s članicami še naprej razpravljala o različnih možnostih. EU je v okviru režima vedno podpirala sprejetje odločnih izjav za javnost, ki bi odražale zaskrbljenost mednarodne skupnosti zaradi izstrelitev balističnih raket pomembnega razvoja raketne tehnologije v Iranu in DLRK. |

VESOLJE

| 87. | EU in njene države članice so se še naprej aktivno zavzemale za ohranjanje varnega, zaščitenega in trajnostnega vesoljskega okolja ter miroljubno rabo vesolja na pravični in za vse strani sprejemljivi podlagi, tako za današnje kot prihodnje generacije. Še naprej smo poudarjali, da so potrebni ukrepi za izboljšanje preglednosti in krepitev zaupanja ter da se je treba v okviru Združenih narodov zavzemati za odgovorno ravnanje v vesolju. V tem smislu je EU na Generalni skupščini ZN dala izjave v zvezi z vesoljem. |
| --- | --- |

87.

| 88. | EU in njene države članice so se še naprej odločno zavzemale za preprečevanje oboroževalne tekme v vesolju, ki je bistvenega pomena za krepitev mednarodne varnosti in stabilnosti ter za zagotavljanje dolgoročne rabe vesoljskega okolja v miroljubne namene. Še naprej smo izražali zaskrbljenost glede razvoja vsega protisatelitskega orožja in zmogljivosti, vključno z zemeljskimi, ter poudarili, kako pomembno je, da se tak razvoj obravnava hitro in v okviru mednarodnih prizadevanj za preprečevanje oboroževalne tekme v vesolju. |
| --- | --- |

88.

| 89. | EU in njene države članice so pozdravile ustanovitev delovne skupine za dolgoročno trajnostnost dejavnosti v vesolju v okviru znanstvenega in tehničnega pododbora Odbora za miroljubno rabo vesolja. Delovna skupina bo olajšala izmenjavo izkušenj, dobrih praks in spoznanj, pridobljenih pri izvajanju sprejetih smernic, pomagala pri ozaveščanju in krepitvi zmogljivosti ter obravnavala nove izzive za dolgoročno trajnostnost dejavnosti v vesolju, kot so velike konstelacije. |
| --- | --- |

89.

| 90. | EU in njene države članice so po sprejetju nove resolucije o zmanjševanju groženj z odgovornim ravnanjem (Resolucija GS ZN 75/36 (35)), prispevale k poročilu generalnega sekretarja ZN s skupnim prispevkom EU in več nacionalnimi prispevki. Poleg tega so pozdravile sprejetje Resolucije GS ZN 76/231 o zmanjšanju vesoljskih groženj z normami, pravili in načeli odgovornega ravnanja (36) kot pravočasen korak k zmanjšanju groženj in tveganj, povezanih z vesoljem, in spodbujanju odgovornega ravnanja v vesolju, zlasti v okviru Združenih narodov. V celoti so podprle ustanovitev odprte delovne skupine, kar bo omogočilo podrobno razpravo o zmanjšanju groženj z odgovornim ravnanjem. Ob tem so pozvale vse države, naj konstruktivno sodelujejo pri doseganju skupnega razumevanja odgovornega ravnanja v vesolju, h kateremu bo skupaj prispevala tudi EU. Potrdile so tudi pomen skupnega nadaljevanja in krepitve prizadevanj za obravnavanje izzivov v vesolju s sodelovanjem vseh držav članic ZN in ustreznih organizacij. |

KLAVZULE O NEŠIRJENJU OROŽJA ZA MNOŽIČNO UNIČEVANJE

| 91. | EU si je v skladu s svojo politiko proti širjenju orožja za množično uničevanje in v skladu s sklepi Sveta iz leta 2003 še naprej prizadevala za vključitev zavez o neširjenju orožja za množično uničevanje v sporazume s partnerskimi državami. Leta 2021 so potekala pogajanja s Tajsko o sporazumu o partnerstvu in sodelovanju. |
| --- | --- |

91.

DRUGI VEČSTRANSKI FORUMI

| 92. | EU se je še naprej dejavno udeleževala srečanj skupine direktorjev, ki so v okviru skupine G7 pristojni za neširjenje orožja. Leta 2021 se je udeležila srečanj pod predsedstvom Združenega kraljestva, ki so bila posvečena perečim vprašanjem s področja neširjenja orožja in razoroževanja, pa tudi doseganju nadaljnjega napredka pri usklajevanju dela, opravljenega v sklopu skupine direktorjev za neširjenje orožja, za usklajen odziv na neprestana izzivanja Demokratične ljudske republike Koreja ter oceno nadzornih ukrepov IAEA. |
| --- | --- |

92.

| 93. | EU ostaja zavezana globalnemu partnerstvu proti širjenju orožja in sredstev za množično uničevanje. Leta 2021 je sprejela sklep Sveta v podporo krepitvi odpornosti na področju biološke varnosti in biološke zaščite z BTWC v okviru ekskluzivne pobude Globalnega partnerstva za zmanjšanje biološke grožnje v Afriki. Poleg tega sodeluje v Globalnem partnerstvu z zagotavljanjem tehnične pomoči (oceno nevarnosti, nacionalnim akcijskimi načrti) po vsem svetu v okviru svoje pobude za centre odličnosti za zmanjševanje KBRJ ogroženosti. |
