Tuarascáil Bhliantúil ar Dhul Chun Cinn maidir le cur chun feidhme Straitéis an Aontais i gcoinne Leathadh Arm Ollscriosta (2021)

(2022/C 310/01)

RÉAMHRÁ

| 1. | Sa Tuarascáil seo ar Dhul Chun Cinn maidir le cur chun feidhme Straitéis an Aontais i gcoinne Leathadh Arm Ollscriosta (AOS), a ghlac an Chomhairle Eorpach i mí na Nollag 2003 (15708/03), cumhdaítear na gníomhaíochtaí a rinneadh in 2021. Tá an Tuarascáil neamh-uileghabhálach agus díríonn sí ar na príomhfhorbairtí. |

  a. | iltaobhachas éifeachtach, lena n-áirítear an lárnacht na hailtireachta domhanda maidir le neamhleathadh agus dí-armáil a choimirciú agus a uilíoch atá sí a chur chun cinn, trí ghníomhaíocht taidhleoireachta agus cúnamh airgeadais do thríú tíortha agus d’eagraíochtaí idirnáisiúnta; |

| 3. | Bhí tionchar leanúnach ag paindéim COVID-19 ar obair iltaobhach maidir le saincheisteanna neamhleata agus dí-armála in 2021, mar gheall ar shrianta taistil den chuid is mó. Cé gur cuireadh roinnt cruinnithe iltaobhacha siar, go háirithe an 10ú Comhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin den Chonradh maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach (NPT) agus an 9ú Comhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin den Choinbhinsiún maidir le hAirm Bhitheolaíocha agus Tocsaine, bhíothas in ann go leor cruinnithe eile a eagrú ar líne agus roinnt eile go pearsanta. Ar an mbealach sin, bhíothas in ann leanúint den phlé iltaobhach, agus na srianta a bhaineann le hidirghníomhaíochtaí trí fhíschomhdháil á n-aithint ag an am céanna. |

| 5. | Tháinig Meitheal Chomhairle an Aontais Eorpaigh um Neamhleathadh (CONOP) le chéile go rialta le linn 2021 agus thionóil sí cruinnithe breise, lena n-áirítear faoi dhó ar leibhéal na stiúrthóirí, chun bailchríoch a chur ar na Conclúidí ón gComhairle maidir leis an Deichiú Comhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin de chuid na bPáirtithe sa Chonradh maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach. Tháinig an Mheitheal le chéile 11 uair i bhformáid fhíorúil agus 3 huaire i bpearsa chun seasaimh agus gníomhaíochtaí an Aontais amach anseo a phlé. D’ullmhaigh Toscaireachtaí an Aontais Eorpaigh i Vín, sa Ghinéiv agus i Nua Eabhrac na dosaen ráiteas ón Aontas Eorpach le haghaidh gnóthaí iltaobhacha agus chomhordaigh siad imeachtaí ar an imeall agus chuir siad go gníomhach le ceapadh beartas trí chruinnithe rialta comhordúcháin de chuid an Aontais agus trí pháirt a ghlacadh i gcruinnithe na Meithle. |

SAINCHEISTEANNA NÚICLÉACHA

| 6. | Tá an tAontas iomlán tiomanta i gcónaí do chur chun cinn uilíoch agus cur chun feidhme iomlán, éifeachtach an Chonartha maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach, teacht i bhfeidhm agus uilíochas CTBT, agus tús agus tabhairt i gcrích luath na caibidlíochta, ag an gComhdháil maidir le Dí-armáil, maidir le conradh lena gcuirfear toirmeasc ar tháirgeadh ábhar inscoilte le haghaidh airm núicléacha nó feistí pléascacha núicléacha eile (FMCT). |

| 7. | Is tosaíocht don Aontas i gcónaí crios a bhunú sa Mheánoirthear atá saor ó airm ollscriosta agus a gcórais seachadta. In 2021 lean ranníocaíochtaí an Aontais le hInstitiúid na Náisiún Aontaithe um Thaighde ar an Dí-Armáil (UNIDIR) ar aghaidh faoi Chinneadh (CBES) 2019/938 ón gComhairle (1) chun tacú le bearta chun muinín a chothú lena mbunófar crios den sórt sin. |

An Conradh maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach agus an Ghníomhaireacht Idirnáisiúnta d’Fhuinneamh Adamhach

| 8. | Bhí timthriall athbhreithnithe an NPT le críochnú in Aibreán/Bealtaine 2020 ag an Deichiú Comhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin NPT. Mar gheall ar phaindéim COVID-19 agus na srianta taistil a ghabh léi, chomhaontaigh na Stáit is Páirtithe i mí an Mhárta 2020 an Chomhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin a chur ar athló go dtí mí Eanáir 2021. Níos déanaí sa bhliain, cuireadh an Chomhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin ar athló an athuair, go sealadach, go dtí mí Lúnasa 2021, agus ansin arís eile go dtí mí Eanáir 2022, agus ar deireadh go dtí mí Lúnasa 2022. Rannchuidigh an tAontas leis na díospóireachtaí ábhartha uile a eagraíodh i bhformáid fhíorúil agus i bhformáid phearsanta, lena n-áirítear leis an díospóireacht ghinearálta ag an 75ú seisiún de Chéad Choiste um Dhí-armáil agus um Shlándáil Idirnáisiúnta de chuid Chomhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe. Rinne an Toscaire Speisialta roinnt comhairliúchán le comhpháirtithe tábhachtacha freisin agus ghlac sé páirt i roinnt seimineár agus ceardlann. |

| 9. | In 2021, lean cur chun feidhme Chinneadh (CBES) 2019/615 ón gComhairle (2) maidir le tacaíocht an Aontais do ghníomhaíochtaí roimh an gComhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin NPT ar aghaidh le ceardlann réigiúnach do réigiún an Mheánoirthir, a tionóladh in Amman ón 13 go dtí an 14 Samhain 2021 agus a rinne Oifig na Náisiún Aontaithe um Ghnóthaí Dí-Armála (UNODA). Ba é cuspóir sáraitheach an Chinnidh ón gComhairle cabhrú le toradh rathúil ar Chomhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin NPT a éascú agus sraith gníomhaíochtaí agus moltaí atá réadúil agus indéanta a fhorbairt, ar gníomhaíochtaí agus moltaí iad a d’fhéadfadh leas a bhaint as comhdhearcadh. Ní rabhthas in ann cruinniú réigiúnach amháin eile a bhí fágtha a eagrú, mar gheall ar phaindéim Covid-19, cruinniú do réigiún Mheiriceá Laidinigh a raibh sé mar aidhm leis na trí cholún den Chonradh maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach (NPT) a chumhdach, colúin ar breathnaíodh orthu trí dhearcadh na dtosaíochtaí réigiúnacha agus na n-ábhar imní réigiúnach. Rinneadh Cinneadh (CBES) 2019/615 maidir le tacaíocht an Aontais do ghníomhaíochtaí roimh an gComhdháil Athbhreithniúcháin a shíneadh an 8 Aibreán 2021 agus an 21 Meán Fómhair 2021 ar bhonn gan chostas go dtí an 15 Eanáir 2022, nuair a chuaigh sé in éag. |

| 10. | Lean an tAontas de thacaíocht a thabhairt do phríomhfhreagrachtaí na Gníomhaireachta Idirnáisiúnta d’Fhuinneamh Adamhach (IAEA) maidir le neamhleathadh trína chóras coimircí, an tsábháilteacht núicléach, an tslándáil núicléach, feidhmchláir fuinnimh núicléach agus comhar teicniúil, lena n-áirítear trí thacaíocht airgeadais ábhartha. Ghlac an tAontas Eorpach agus Euratom páirt ghníomhach i ngach cruinniú de chomhlachtaí rialaithe IAEA, agus chomhordaigh an tAontas cúrsaí i Vín. Ag an 65ú Comhdháil Ghinearálta de IAEA i Vín i mí Mheán Fómhair 2021, glacadh dhá rún maidir le coimircí núicléacha agus an tslándáil núicléach a d’urraigh an tAontas Eorpach trí chomhthoil. Chomhordaigh Toscaireacht an Aontais i Vín breis agus 40 ráiteas ón Aontas Eorpach i rith na bliana ar na saincheisteanna ábhartha ar fad a bhain le IAEA. |

| 11. | Leis an gCinneadh (CBES) 2020/1656 ón gComhairle (3) is déanaí, ar fiú EUR 11,6 milliún é, leanann an tAontas de thacaíocht a thabhairt do ghníomhaíochtaí slándála núicléiche IAEA sna réimsí seo a leanas:






  a. | uilíochas an neamhleata idirnáisiúnta agus na n-ionstraimí slándála núicléiche, lena n-áirítear an Leasú ar an gCoinbhinsiún maidir le Cosaint Fhisiceach Ábhair Núicléach; |

| 13. | Is iad na Comhaontuithe maidir le Coimirciú Cuimsitheach, mar aon le Prótacail Bhreise, an caighdeán fíorúcháin atá ann faoi láthair, agus leanann an tAontas i gcónaí de bheith ag iarraidh go gcloífear leo ar bhonn uilíoch. Leis an dlúthchomhar idir Euratom agus IAEA is féidir coimircí éifeachtacha agus éifeachtúla a bheith ann. Tacaíonn an tAontas go gníomhach le córas coimircí IAEA trí Chlár an Choimisiúin Eorpaigh um Tacaíocht do Choimircí (EC-SP), tríd an Ionstraim um Chomhar maidir leis an tSábháilteacht Núicléach (INSC) agus trí Chláir Thacaíochta na mBallstát. Neartaigh EC-SP cumais coimircí núicléacha IAEA roimhe seo, lena n-áirítear oiliúint theicniúil cigirí agus cumais chun cur chun feidhme JCPOA a fhíorú trí oiliúint a sholáthar do chigirí coimircí IAEA maidir le Rochtain Chomhlántach agus maidir le hoibriú COMPUCEA (Nós Imeachta Comhcheangailte le haghaidh Anailís ar Thiúchan agus ar Shaibhriú Úráiniam) le haghaidh saibhriú UF6 a fhíorú, lena n-áirítear na hábhair thagartha faoi seach. Tacaíonn EC-SP le Líonra Saotharlanna Anailíseacha IAEA ina sainorduithe fíorúcháin JCPOA ina bhfuil seirbhísí anailíseacha, modhanna caighdeánaithe agus uirlisí rialaithe cáilíochta. Tacaíonn anailís ar cháithníní go háirithe agus táirgeadh agus deimhniú cáithníní tagartha le Líonra Saotharlanna Anailíseacha IAEA chun modhanna nua agus prótacail tomhais a fhorbairt le haghaidh anailís ar shamplaí svaidhpeála comhshaoil faoin bPrótacal Breise. Trí INSC, chuir an tAontas tacaíocht airgeadais ar fáil do ghníomhaíochtaí fíorúcháin san Iaráin faoi Iarscríbhinn I a ghabhann le JCPOA agus do chur chun cinn an Chórais Stáit um Chuntasaíocht agus Rialú na n-ábhar núicléach (SSAC) i dtíortha comhpháirtíochta. |

| 14. | Leanann an Coimisiún Eorpach de bheith ag oibriú agus ag tacú go gníomhach leis an gComhlachas Eorpach um Thaighde agus Forbairt Coimircí (ESARDA), a leanann dá fhor-rochtain idirnáisiúnta freisin trína Mheabhráin Tuisceana le Coimisiún na hAfraice um Fhuinneamh Núicléach agus Líonra an Aigéin Chiúin san Áise um Choimircí i ndlúthchomhar leis an Institiúid um Bainistiú Ábhar Núicléach. Déanann Meithleacha ESARDA coimircí nuálacha agus cineálacha cur chuige maidir le neamhleathadh a fhorbairt, a thástáil agus a bhailíochtú, rud a rachaidh chun tairbhe dhíreach don Stiúrthóireacht um Choimircí Núicléacha in DG ENER agus don Roinn um Choimircí de chuid na Gníomhaireachta Idirnáisiúnta d’Fhuinneamh Adamhach. D’ainneoin srianta COVID, rinneadh cianoiliúint theicniúil maidir le saibhriú úráiniam, fíoruithe comhdhéanamh iseatópach plútóiniam, agus Mapáil Léasair le haghaidh Fíorú Coimeádta (LMCV) i gcomhair chigirí Euratom. Roimh an bpaindéim, rinneadh oiliúint ar chomhaireamh neodrón freisin. I mí Aibreáin 2021 tionóladh cúrsa seanbhunaithe ESARDA maidir le coimircí núicléacha agus neamhleathadh núicléach, tar éis d’imeacht 2020 a bheith curtha ar ceal. Le torthaí taighde agus forbartha agus tionscnaimh oideachais agus oiliúna, cuirtear feabhas ar chumais Eorpacha agus idirnáisiúnta i gcoimircí núicléacha agus i rialú straitéiseach trádála. Baineadh leas as an obair seo chun cur le tionscnaimh slándála núicléiche agus dí-armála núicléiche. Fuair Airmheán Comhpháirteach Taighde an Choimisiúin Eorpaigh taithí ar chianoiliúint theicniúil i gcomhair cigirí coimircí a roinneadh le IAEA trí chruinnithe tríthaobhacha (IAEA, Euratom agus JRC). Reáchtáladh an chéad Chomhchruinniú Bliantúil riamh leis an Institiúid um Bainistiú Ábhar Núicléach mar imeacht fíorúil i mí Lúnasa 2021. |

| 15. | Faoin Ionstraim um Chomhar maidir le Sábháilteacht Núicléach, thug an Coimisiún Eorpach maoiniú do thionscadal mór oiliúna agus oideachais i réimse na gcoimircí núicléacha in éineacht leis an Líonra Eorpach um an Oideachas Núicléach (ENEN). Faoin gconradh seo, oibríonn ENEN in éineacht le Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI), JRC, ESARDA agus IAEA chun an chéad chlár iarchéime acadúil riamh maidir le coimircí núicléacha a bhunú don bhliain acadúil 2021/2022. Tar éis dianfheachtais roghnúcháin, roghnaíodh 25 dalta as 66 iarratasóir san iomlán. Is ó mhór-roinn na hAfraice leath díobh agus is mná iad níos mó ná leath. Chuir IAEA DG, WNA DG, Rúnaí Feidhmiúcháin AFCONE, inter alia, an clár máistreachta ar bun agus tá sé ar siúl ó mhí Dheireadh Fómhair 2021 i leith. Bíonn suas le 50 saineolaí páirteach sa teagasc, agus cuireann siad an clár ar fáil i bhformáid fhíorúil trí fhísléachtanna, seimineáir ghréasáin, cleachtaí agus scrúduithe. |

| 17. | Is fíorthábhachtach don Aontas agus do na Ballstáit cur chun feidhme domhanda agus feabhsú leanúnach na sábháilteachta núicléiche. Tá feidhm dhlíthiúil tugtha ag an Aontas do chuspóirí Dhearbhú Vín maidir le Sábháilteacht Núicléach trína Threoir leasaithe maidir le Sábháilteacht Núicléach a tháinig i bhfeidhm in 2017. Príomhghné den treoir leasaithe is ea cuspóir sábháilteachta a thabhairt isteach do na hoibreoirí uile chun tionóiscí a chosc agus scaoileadh suntasach radaighníomhach a sheachaint. Leis na treoracha leasaithe, cuireadh Athbhreithnithe Téamacha Piaraí i ndlí Euratom freisin. Rinneadh an chéad Athbhreithniú Téamach Eorpach Piaraí go rathúil. Rinne gach Ballstát de chuid an Aontais na ceanglais nua a thrasuí ina ndlíthe náisiúnta. |

D’iarr an tAontas arís agus arís eile go ndaingneofaí an Conradh ina ráitis sna fóraim lena mbaineann agus ina theagmhálacha déthaobhacha leis na tíortha ábhartha a liostaítear in Iarscríbhinn II agus le tíortha nach liostaítear ann, lena n-áirítear i ráiteas a rinne an tArdionadaí ag Comhdháil Airteagal XIV i Nua Eabhrac i mí Mheán Fómhair 2021. Thairis sin, in 2021, rinne an tAontas bearta taidhleoireachta i ndáil le stáit a liostaítear in Iarscríbhinn II agus stáit nach liostaítear ann, agus é mar aidhm aige uiliú agus teacht i bhfeidhm CTBT a chur chun cinn. Bhí an toscaire speisialta maidir le neamhleathadh agus dí-armáil ina phainéalaí ag Comhdháil Bhliantúil Eolaíochta agus Teicneolaíochta de Choimisiún Ullmhúcháin na hEagraíochta CTBT (CTBTO). Bhí teacht i bhfeidhm CTBT a chur chun cinn ar cheann de na gníomhaíochtaí a leagtar amach i gclár oibre Ard-Rúnaí na Náisiún Aontaithe dar teideal “Ár dTodhchaí Coiteann a Shlánú: Clár oibre le haghaidh Dí-armála” ar chinn an tAontas tacú leis |

| 24. | Cuireann an tAontas chun cinn i gcónaí na tairbhí agus a bhfuil déanta ag CTBT chun cur leis an tsíocháin, an tslándáil, an dí-armáil agus an neamhleathadh, lena n-áirítear sna feidhmeanna sibhialta atá aige. Lean tiomantas daingean polaitiúil agus airgeadais an Aontais don Chonradh agus dá Eagraíocht in 2021 trí chur chun feidhme Chinneadh (CBES) 2020/901 ón gComhairle an 29 Meitheamh 2020 maidir le tacaíocht an Aontais do ghníomhaíochtaí Choimisiún Ullmhúcháin Eagraíocht an Chonartha um Chosc Cuimsitheach ar Thrialacha Núicléacha (CTBTO) chun a chumas faireacháin agus fíoraithe a neartú agus faoi chuimsiú chur chun feidhme Straitéis an AE I gcoinne Leathadh Arm Ollscriosta (6). Tríd an tacaíocht airgeadais a thug an tAontas do CTBT, rannchuidíodh leis an gCóras Faireacháin Idirnáisiúnta (IMS) a chothabháil agus a neartú trí thacaíocht theicniúil a chur ar fáil, fothú acmhainneachta agus trí rannpháirtíocht saineolaithe i gcruinnithe CTBTO a éascú, go háirithe i gcás tíortha i mbéal forbartha. Ghlac an tAontas páirt ghníomhach i seisiúin Choimisiún Ullmhúcháin CTBTO, a Ghrúpaí Oibre A agus B, agus bhí comhordú ar leibhéal an Aontais ar siúl in CONOP agus i Vín. |

| 30. | Tá Lárionad Oiliúna Slándála Núicléiche an Aontais Eorpaigh chun gníomhartha aindleathacha lena mbaineann ábhair núicléacha agus radaighníomhacha a bhrath agus a fhreagairt (EUSECTRA) ag feidhmiú go hiomlán ó 2013 ar mhaithe le Ballstáit agus tíortha comhpháirtíochta an Aontais Eorpaigh, ina measc roinnt comhaltaí GICNT. Is é an tAirmheán Comhpháirteach Taighde (JRC) a oibríonn an Lárionad ag a shuíomhanna in Karlsruhe (an Ghearmáin) agus in Ispra (an Iodáil), i ndlúthchomhar le tionscnaimh idirnáisiúnta eile arna gcur chun cinn ag IAEA agus ag roinnt tíortha comhpháirtíochta GICNT. Úsáidtear an Iárionad freisin le haghaidh cleachtaí praiticiúla a bhaineann go príomha le smuigleáil ábhar núicléach a chomhrac. Tá EUSECTRA gníomhach ó thaobh aghaidh a thabhairt ar riachtanais oiliúna Bhallstáit an Aontais agus chomhpháirtithe an Aontais, lena n-áirítear trí oiliúint chomhordaithe do thoscairí na mBallstát i réimse an chustaim agus fhorfheidhmithe an dlí, atá curtha chun feidhme cheana féin agus atá beartaithe do 2019-2022 (i gcomhar díreach le hArd-Stiúrthóireacht HOME agus Ard-Stiúrthóireacht TAXUD an Choimisiúin Eorpaigh). Treisíonn EUSECTRA an bonneagar a úsáidtear chun an oiliúint a stiúradh, forbraíonn sé uirlisí fíorúla foghlama agus déanann sé measúnú ar fheidhmíocht trealaimh arna iarraidh sin ag Ballstáit an Aontais. De dheasca na paindéime, cuireadh srian ar oiliúint fhisiciúil. Forbraíodh cur chuige hibrideach ag baint úsáid as modhanna nua-aimseartha, ag díriú ar chleachtaí allamuigh le cianúsáid ionstraimí agus úsáid fíorshaoil ábhar núicléach agus radaighníomhach chun na hiarrachtaí a chothú in aghaidh bagairtí ceimiceacha, bitheolaíocha, raideolaíocha agus núicléacha (CBRN) agus in aghaidh na sceimhlitheoireachta núicléiche. |

| 36. | In 2020, sheol AS TAXUD an Choimisiúin Eorpaigh, le tacaíocht ó JRC agus EUSECTRA, clár ríomhfhoghlama idirghníomhach chun tacú le hoifigigh chustaim foghlaim faoi rialú radaighníomhach agus núicléach ag teorainneacha. Sa bhunmhodúl, léirítear ról tábhachtach na n-oifigeach custaim maidir le hábhair núicléacha agus radaighníomhacha a bhrath, iad a chur ar an eolas faoi rioscaí agus bagairtí, chomh maith le buneolas ar ábhair, trealamh agus próisis ábhartha. San ardmhodúl, déantar iniúchadh níos mionsonraithe ar na hábhair chéanna. Áirítear sa dá chúrsa cásanna réalaíocha, ina bhfuil calafoirt mhara, aerfoirt, iarnróid, agus teorainneacha talún, inar féidir le rannpháirtithe a gcinnteoireacht a thástáil. I ngeall ar an gcomhar idir AS TAXUD agus JRC, is mó iad sineirgí atá cruthaithe idir riaracháin chustaim na mBallstát. Beidh an oiliúint a chuirfear ar fáil ag lárionad EUSECTRA ina ardán do shaineolaithe náisiúnta chun dea-chleachtais slándála núicléiche i gcosaint na dteorainneacha a mhalartú agus, ar an gcaoi sin, cuirfear le forbairt nósanna imeachta comhchuibhithe. Cuid d’iarracht is ea é sin chun gáinneáil núicléach a chomhrac go comhoibríoch agus chun trádáil a éascú trí sheicphointí custaim. I ndeireadh na dála, is é an sprioc atá ann cosc a chur ar dhaoine aonair rochtain a fháil ar ábhair dhíobhálacha trí chomhchultúr slándála núicléiche a chur chun cinn. |

Tionscnaimh a bhaineann leis an bhfíorú núicléach

| 37. | Thacaigh an tAontas agus na Ballstáit le bunú an Ghrúpa Saineolaithe Rialtais (GGE) um fhíorú dí-armála núicléiche ag Comhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe in 2016, ba dhíol sásaimh dóibh an plé a rinneadh in GGE agus chomhaontaigh siad leis an moladh leanúint den obair amach anseo, agus an tuarascáil ó GGE á cur san áireamh. Thacaigh an tAontas go hiomlán le rún 74/50 ó Chomhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe agus le bunú Grúpa nua Saineolaithe Rialtais, arna thionól in 2021 agus 2022 chun leanúint de ról an fhíoraithe maidir le cur chun cinn na dí-armála núicléiche a mheas. Tacaíonn an tAontas le hobair comhpháirtíochtaí níos leithne agus le socruithe fíoraithe comhoibritheacha agus ghlac sé páirt in obair na Comhpháirtíochta Idirnáisiúnta maidir le Fíorú Dí-armála Núicléiche (IPNDV) ó bunaíodh in 2015 í. Chomh maith leis sin, tacaíonn an tAontas le pointe gníomhaíochta a bhaineann le fíorú dí-armála a leagtar amach in “Ár dTodhchaí Coiteann a Shlánú: Clár oibre le haghaidh Dí-armála” ó Ard-Rúnaí na Náisiún Aontaithe. |

Saincheisteanna réigiúnacha

| 38. | Is príomhghné den ailtireacht dhomhanda maidir le neamhleathadh núicléach é an Plean Cuimsitheach Comhpháirteach Gníomhaíochta (JCPOA) agus is éacht é ó thaobh na taidhleoireachta iltaobhaí é. Tá cur chun feidhme iomlán an chomhaontaithe ríthábhachtach do shlándáil na hEorpa. Chuir an tAontas in iúl, arís agus arís eile, go raibh díomá air gur laghdaigh an Iaráin a gealltanais núicléacha faoi JCPOA, rud ar cuireadh tús leis i mí Iúil 2019 agus ar leanadh ar aghaidh leis le linn 2020 agus 2021. Níl gníomhaíochtaí leanúnacha na hIaráine ag teacht lena bhfuil in JCPOA agus is tromchúiseach na himpleachtaí atá acu ó thaobh leathadh núicléach de agus, i gcásanna áirithe, is impleachtaí iad nach féidir dul siar orthu. Lean an tAontas de thathant ar an Iaráin deireadh a chur le gach gníomhaíocht nach bhfuil ag teacht le JCPOA agus tabhairt faoina gealltanais núicléacha a chur chun feidhme ina n-iomláine gan mhoill, go háirithe cur chun feidhme fhorálacha trédhearcachta an Phrótacail Bhreise agus JCPOA. Leanann Ardionadaí an Aontais, ina cháil mar Chomhordaitheoir Choimisiún Comhpháirteach JCPOA, de bheith tiomanta do JCPOA a chaomhnú agus a áirithiú go gcuirfear JCPOA chun feidhme go hiomlán. Chuige sin, in 2021, ghlac Ardionadaí an Aontais Eorpaigh páirt i ndiantaidhleoireacht le rannpháirtithe uile JCPOA agus leis na Stáit Aontaithe chun a áirithiú go dtosófar arís ar JCPOA a chur chun feidhme go hiomlán agus go héifeachtach. |

| 39. | Ag an am céanna, leanann an tAontas de bheith ag rannchuidiú le cur chun feidhme JCPOA trí chomhordú a dhéanamh ar an gCoimisiún Comhpháirteach agus ar na meithleacha oibre ar leibhéal na saineolaithe a bunaíodh faoi JCPOA. Ina theannta sin, leanann an tAontas de thacaíocht a thabhairt do mhisean fadtéarmach IAEA chun gealltanais na hIaráine maidir le cúrsaí núicléacha a fhíorú agus faireachán a dhéanamh orthu. D’ainneoin srianta a bhaineann le COVID, leanann an tAontas den chomhar leis an Iaráin sa réimse núicléach sibhialta faoi Iarscríbhinn III a ghabhann le JCPOA i réimse na sábháilteachta núicléiche.
  Sa chomhar núicléach sibhialta idir an tAontas agus an Iaráin, áirítear tacaíocht do nuachóiriú imoibreoir taighde Arak (Khondab), tacaíocht d’Údarás Rialála Núicléiche na hIaráine (INRA), lena n-áirítear an Lárionad Sábháilteachta Núicléiche a bhunú in Tehran, a leanann an tAontas den trealamh is gá ina leith a sholáthar, tacaíocht do Ghléasra Cumhachta Núicléiche Bushehr chun na tástálacha struis a chur chun feidhme agus le fíorú agus faireachán IAEA san Iaráin. Tá an bealach soláthair faoi stiúir JCPOA, ina ndéantar athbhreithniú ar aistriú earraí núicléacha nó dé-úsáide go dtí an Iaráin, go hiomlán oibríochtúil i gcónaí. Le linn 2021, thionóil Toscaireacht an Aontais Eorpaigh i Vín ocht gcruinniú den Ghrúpa Oibre um Sholáthar agus rinne sí cathaoirleacht orthu. |

| 40. | Lean an tAontas agus a chuid Ballstát de bheith ag tathant ar Dhaon-Phoblacht Dhaonlathach na Cóiré (an Chóiré Thuaidh) bearta nithiúla a dhéanamh chun deireadh a chur lena hairm núicléacha, lena clár núicléach atá ann faoi láthair, le diúracáin bhalaistíocha agus le haon airm ollscriosta eile ar bhealach iomlán, infhíoraithe agus do-aisiompaithe. Léiríodh é sin sna ráitis ábhartha uile ón Aontas. Chuir an tAontas in iúl gur cúis imní dó gur thug an Chóiré Thuaidh le fios, ag an 8ú Comhdháil de chuid an Pháirtí, go raibh sé ar intinn aici airm núicléacha agus a modhanna seachadta a fhorbairt a thuilleadh agus gur chuir sí ar taispeáint córais diúracán nua, más fíor, ag ollpharáid i mí Eanáir 2021. Cháin an tAontas gníomhaíochtaí díchobhsaitheacha a rinne an Chóiré Thuaidh ina dhiaidh sin, lena n-áirítear diúracáin bhalaistíocha gearr-raoin a lainseáil, diúracán balaistíoch a lainseáil ó fhomhuireán, diúracán a bhfuil faoileoir hipearshonach feistithe air, más fíor, diúracáin a scaoileadh ó thraein agus feithiclí eile agus tástáil a dhéanamh ar chineálacha nua diúracán cúrsála. Mhol an tAontas go dtabharfaí teachtaireachtaí, ar bhealach comhsheasmhach agus i gcomhar le comhpháirtithe atá ar aon intinn leis, chun cáineadh a dhéanamh ar na sáruithe atá déanta ag an gCóiré Thuaidh ar roinnt rún ó Chomhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe. Rinne an tAontas deimhin de gur cuireadh chun feidhme go docht na smachtbhannaí a d’fhorchuir Comhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe, a trasuíodh i ndlí an Aontais chomh maith le bearta breise uathrialacha de chuid an Aontais.
  Mhol an tAontas do Bhallstáit uile na Náisiún Aontaithe smachtbhannaí na Náisiún Aontaithe a chur chun feidhme ina n-iomláine, lena n-áirítear trí leas a bhaint as bearta taidhleoireachta i níos mó ná 70 tír agus trí dhlúthchumarsáid a dhéanamh le Painéal Saineolaithe na Náisiún Aontaithe agus le Coiste 1718. Ag an am céanna, thathantaigh an tAontas ar an gCóiré Thuaidh freagra a thabhairt, ar bhealach dearfach, ar an toil atá léirithe ag na Stáit Aontaithe chun dul i mbun idirphlé agus páirt a ghlacadh i gcainteanna fónta leis na páirtithe ábhartha uile, agus chuir sé i dtreis go bhfuil an tAontas réidh i gcónaí chun tacú le próiseas taidhleoireachta nua. Thathantaigh an tAontas ar an gCóiré Thuaidh na rúin ábhartha uile ó Chomhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe agus a hoibleagáidí agus a gealltanais idirnáisiúnta eile a chomhlíonadh ina n-iomláine, an Conradh maidir le Neamhleathadh Arm Núicléach agus an Comhaontú maidir le Coimirciú Cuimsitheach de chuid IAEA a chomhlíonadh athuair, an Prótacal Breise a thabhairt i bhfeidhm, agus tathantaíonn sé air an Conradh um Chosc Cuimsitheach ar Thrialacha Núicléacha a shíniú agus a dhaingniú. |

An Chomhdháil ar Dhí-armáil (CD)/an Conradh lena gcuirtear toirmeasc ar tháirgeadh ábhar inscoilte le haghaidh airm núicléacha nó feistí pléascacha núicléacha eile

| 41. | Leanann an tAontas de bheith aontaithe agus tiomanta do dhí-armáil núicléach agus rialú arm atá infhíoraithe agus conradhbhunaithe agus cuireann sé i bhfios go láidir gur gá iarrachtaí iltaobhacha a athnuachan agus comhlachtaí iltaobhacha caibidlíochta a athbheochan, go háirithe an Chomhdháil ar Dhí-armáil (CD). Is é an tosaíocht atá ag an Aontas le fada an lá sa Chomhdháil ar Dhí-armáil tús a chur láithreach leis an gcaibidlíocht maidir le conradh lena gcuirfear toirmeasc ar tháirgeadh ábhar inscoilte le haghaidh airm núicléacha nó feistí pléascacha núicléacha eile (FMCT). Tacaíonn an tAontas le seoladh na caibidlíochta sin i gcomhréir leis an doiciméad CD/1299 agus leis an sainordú atá ann. Iarrann an tAontas ar gach ball den Chomhdháil ar Dhí-armáil tús a chur gan mhoill leis an gcaibidlíocht maidir le FMCT agus an obair ar na saincheisteanna eile ar an gclár oibre a thosú. Molann an tAontas freisin do na tíortha uile a bhfuil airm núicléacha ina seilbh acu, agus nach bhfuil sin déanta acu cheana, moratóir ar tháirgeadh ábhar inscoilte le haghaidh airm núicléacha nó feistí pléascacha núicléacha eile a fhógairt agus a chur i bhfeidhm láithreach, mura bhfuil sin déanta acu cheana féin. Tá moratóirí ábhartha fógartha ag Ballstát an Aontais, ar stát arm núicléach é, agus tá saoráidí den sórt sin díchóimeáilte aige. |

| 43. | Sa chomhthéacs sin, leanadh de chur chun feidhme Chinneadh (CBES) 2019/538 ón gComhairle chun tacú le gníomhaíochtaí OPCW (8). Leis an gCinneadh sin, tugtar tacaíocht an Aontais do chroíghníomhaíochtaí OPCW (amhail cur chun feidhme náisiúnta, comhar idirnáisiúnta, uiliú, Clár na hAfraice) le linn na tréimhse 2019-2022. Leis an gCinneadh freisin, cuirtear go mór le huasghrádú Shaotharlann OPCW chun Lárionad don Cheimic agus don Teicneolaíocht a dhéanamh aisti agus le cur chun feidhme Chinneadh C-SS-4/DEC.3 Addressing the Threat from Chemical weapons [Aghaidh a thabhairt ar an mbagairt ó airm cheimiceacha], a ghlac Seisiún Speisialta Chomhdháil na Stát is Páirtithe (CSP) chuig CWC an 27 Meitheamh 2018. |

AIRM BHITHEOLAÍOCHA

| 48. | Tacaíonn an tAontas agus na Ballstáit go tréan leis an gCoinbhinsiún maidir le hAirm Bhitheolaíocha agus Thocsaine (BTWC) agus tá siad an-ghníomhach san obair idirnáisiúnta i dtaobh an bhithshábháilteacht agus an bhithshlándáil a fheabhsú fud fad na cruinne. Tá os cionn EUR 11 milliún curtha ar fáil ag an Aontas mar thacaíocht dhíreach ó 2006 i leith, trí bhíthin Gníomhaíochtaí Comhpháirteacha agus Cinntí ón gComhairle. Ina theannta sin, chuir an tAontas EUR 6 milliún breise ar fáil chun tacú leis an mbithshábháilteacht agus leis an mbithshlándáil a neartú san Úcráin agus i dtíortha éagsúla i Meiriceá Laidineach, agus chun tacú le Sásra Ardrúnaí na Náisiún Aontaithe um Imscrúdú ar Úsáid Líomhnaithe Arm Ceimiceach, Bitheolaíoch nó Tocsaineach. |

Déantar foráil sa Chinneadh do bhuiséad EUR 3 milliún d’Oifig na Náisiún Aontaithe um Ghnóthaí Dí-Armála (UNODA) don tréimhse 2019-2023. Fágann sin go bhféadfaidh Aonad Tacaíochta Cur Chun Feidhme (ISU) an BTWC sé thionscadal nua a éascú chun tacú leis an uiliú; acmhainneacht a fhothú le haghaidh cur chun feidhme náisiúnta lena n-áirítear trí cinn de chleachtaí athbhreithnithe piaraí; an bhithshlándáil a chothú sa Domhan Theas; uirlisí a fhorbairt le haghaidh na for-rochtana, an oideachais agus na rannpháirtíochta; agus cur leis an ullmhacht chun freagairt d’ionsaithe bitheolaíocha. |

Is í ESCE a chuireann an Cinneadh sin chun feidhme agus déantar foráil ann do luach EUR 1,9 milliún de thacaíocht thar thréimhse 3 bliana. Leis an gCinneadh sin, tá an tAontas ag tacú le sábháilteacht agus slándáil bhitheolaíoch san Úcráin a neartú, go háirithe trí fheabhas a chur ar bhunús reachtach agus rialála na hÚcráine agus ar a córais sláinte i gcás daoine agus ainmhithe, agus trí chur leis an bhfeasacht ar eolaithe beatha. |

DIÚRACÁIN BHALAISTÍOCHA

Cód Iompair na Háige

| 55. | Ba as iarrachtaí an phobail idirnáisiúnta rialáil a dhéanamh ar réimse na ndiúracán balaistíoch darb acmhainn airm ollscriosta a iompar a d’eascair Cód Iompair na Háige in aghaidh leathadh diúracán balaistíoch (HCoC). Is é HCoC an t-aon ionstraim iltaobhach trédhearcachta agus fothaithe muiníne dá bhfuil ann a bhaineann le leathadh diúracán balaistíoch. Trína n-ainm a chur le HCoC, geallann na comhaltaí, dá ndeoin féin, go dtabharfaidh siad fógraí réamhlainseála maidir le lainseáil diúracán balaistíoch agus feithiclí spáslainseála agus maidir le heitiltí tástála. Na tíortha sin a chuireann a n-ainm leis, geallann siad freisin go gcuirfidh siad dearbhú bliantúil isteach maidir le beartais a dtíre i ndáil le diúracáin bhalaistíocha agus feithiclí spáslainseála. |

55.

| 56. | Thacaigh an tAontas go tréan leis an gCód riamh anall. Tá Ballstáit uile an Aontais tar éis a n-ainm a chur leis. Ó síníodh HCoC i mí na Samhna 2002 sa Háig, an Ísiltír, agus ó tháinig sé i bhfeidhm mar Chód Iompair atá ceangailteach go polaitiúil, tá líon na sínitheoirí dulta i méid ó 93 go 143. Is mar gheall freisin ar an bhfor-rochtain taidhleoireachta a rinne an tAontas arís agus arís eile i leith Stáit éagsúla nach raibh páirteach ann chun tacú le huiliú an Chóid an t-ardú sin ar líon na sínitheoirí. In 2022, beifear ag comóradh 20 bliain ó bunaíodh an Cód, rud a fhágfaidh go mbeidh deis ann for-rochtain threisithe a dhéanamh i leith na stát sin nach bhfuil a n-ainm curtha acu leis go fóill. |

56.

| 57. | Le 10 mbliana anuas, ghlac Comhairle an Aontais Eorpaigh sraith de Chinntí CBES lena dtacaítear le Cód Iompair na Háige agus le neamhleathadh diúracán. Trí na Cinntí sin ón gComhairle, maoiníonn an tAontas gníomhaíochtaí for-rochtana HCoC, lena n-áirítear imeachtaí ar an imeall, páipéir thaighde, cruinnithe saineolaithe agus seimineáir réigiúnacha feasachta. Foras atá bunaithe i bPáras, Fondation pour la Recherche Stratégique, a bhíonn i mbun na ngníomhaíochtaí sin, agus is iondúil go mbíonn Cathaoirleacht rothlach HCoC páirteach ann freisin. Rinne Ballstáit éagsúla de chuid an Aontais Eorpaigh Cathaoirleacht ar HCoC ó bunaíodh é, agus rinne siad obair mhór. |

| 58. | Le Cinneadh (CBES) 2017/2370 ón gComhairle (18), leanann an tAontas den méid seo a leanas a dhéanamh: síniú an Chóid, agus i ndeireadh na dála, uiliú an Chóid, a chur chun cinn; tacú le cur chun feidhme iomlán an Chóid; an t-idirphlé a chur chun cinn i measc Stáit is sínitheoirí agus Stáit nach sínitheoirí chun muinín agus trédhearcacht a chothú; féinsmacht a spreagadh agus leibhéal níos airde cobhsaíochta agus slándála a chruthú do chách; infheictheacht an Chóid a threisiú agus cur le feasacht an phobail maidir leis na rioscaí agus na bagairtí a bhaineann le leathadh diúracán balaistíoch; agus féachaint, go háirithe trí staidéir acadúla, ar na féidearthachtaí atá ann an Cód a fheabhsú agus an comhar idir an Cód agus ionstraimí iltaobhacha ábhartha eile a chur chun cinn. In 2021, mar gheall ar na dúshláin a bhain leis an gcur chun feidhme le linn phaindéim COVID-19, cuireadh síneadh go dtí an 21 Eanáir 2023 le tréimhse cur chun feidhme Chinneadh (CBES) 2017/2370. |

RÚN 1540 Ó CHOMHAIRLE SLÁNDÁLA NA NÁISIÚN AONTAITHE AGUS MAOLÚ RIOSCA CBRN

| 60. | Tá Rún 1540 (2004) ó Chomhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe (UNSCR) ina cholún lárnach i gcónaí den ollstruchtúr idirnáisiúnta maidir le neamhleathadh. Is í an chéad ionstraim idirnáisiúnta í a dhéileáil ar bhealach comhtháite cuimsitheach le hairm ollscriosta, le modhanna a seachadta agus le hábhair ghaolmhara. Le UNSCR 1540 (2004), bunaítear oibleagáidí atá ceangailteach ar gach tír. Is é is aidhm dóibh gníomhaithe neamhstáit a chosc agus a dhíspreagadh ó rochtain a fháil ar na hairm sin, ar mhodhanna a seachadta agus ar ábhair ghaolmhara. Arna ghlacadh faoi Chaibidil VII de Chairt na Náisiún Aontaithe, ceanglaítear leis an Rún ar gach tír an reachtaíocht is gá a ghlacadh chun gníomhaithe neamhstáit a chosc ó airm núicléacha, cheimiceacha nó bhitheolaíocha a fháil, agus rialuithe iomchuí intíre a bhunú d’ábhair ghaolmhara chun gáinneáil aindleathach ar na hairm sin a chosc. Leis an bpróiseas cuimsitheach athbhreithnithe ar UNSCR 1540 in 2016, athdhearbhaíodh a lárnaí, a thábhachtaí agus a údarásaí atá sé, mar a léirítear in UNSCR 2325. |

| 61. | D’fhonn cuidiú lenar eascair as athbhreithniú cuimsitheach 2016 a chur chun feidhme agus chun tacú le cur chun feidhme iomlán UNSCR 1540, ghlac an Chomhairle, an 11 Bealtaine 2017, Cinneadh (CBES) 2017/809 (19), chun tacú le cur chun feidhme Rún 1540 (2004) ó Chomhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe maidir le neamhleathadh arm ollscriosta agus modhanna a seachadta.
  Cumhdaítear tréimhse 56 mí leis an gCinneadh ón gComhairle agus tá sé á chur chun feidhme ag Oifig na Náisiún Aontaithe um Ghnóthaí Dí-Armála (UNODA) i Nua Eabhrac, a lig roinnt den chur chun feidhme ar fochonradh chuig ESCE i Vín. Tacaíonn an maoiniú ón Aontas le tíortha atá ag teacht i gcabhair cúnamh teicniúil ar leith a shainaithint, cur leis an bhfeasacht ar chláir ábhartha chúnaimh theicniúil, agus an comhar le heagraíochtaí idirnáisiúnta agus réigiúnacha a fheabhsú, chun tacú le hiarrachtaí fothaithe acmhainneachta náisiúnta. |

| 62. | Rinne JRC cóip d’Atlas na Trádála Straitéisí a tharchur go hoifigiúil chuig Cathaoirleach Choiste 1540, arna hullmhú go comhpháirteach ag JRC agus ag Saotharlann Náisiúnta Argonne de chuid Roinn Fuinnimh na Stát Aontaithe. Forbraíodh Atlas na Trádála Straitéisí chun tuiscint ar shreafaí trádála domhanda i gcás earraí straitéiseacha a chur chun cinn, i.e. earraí lena mbaineann luach straitéiseach míleata, lena n-áirítear earraí dé-úsáide. Foilsítear an tAtlas in dhá imleabhar, mar a dtugtar léargais tír-bhunaithe (20) agus tráchtearraí-bhunaithe (21) ar an trádáil straitéiseach. Úsáideann an Eagraíocht Dhomhanda Custaim, inter alia, Atlas na Trádála Straitéisí. Measadh gur díol spéise é, mar sin, do Ghrúpa Saineolaithe Choiste 1540. |

| 63. | Bunaíodh Tionscnamh maidir le hIonaid Barr Feabhais AE (CoE) CBRN in 2010 mar chlár fothaithe acmhainneachta don domhan uile maidir le maolú rioscaí, bídís ina rioscaí toiliúla, taismeacha nó nádúrtha, a bhaineann le hábhair nó le hoibreáin cheimiceacha, bhitheolaíocha, raideolaíocha agus núicléacha agus rioscaí do shuiteálacha nó do shuíomhanna gaolmhara. Tá 62 tír chomhpháirtíochta á gcruinniú ag an Tionscnamh i láthair na huaire, i ngrúpaí de hocht Rúnaíocht Réigiúnacha, atá lonnaithe sna réigiúin seo a leanas: An Afraic ar Aghaidh an Atlantaigh, an Áise Láir, an Afraic Thoir agus Láir, Tíortha Chomhairle Comhair Stáit Arabacha na Murascaille. An Meánoirthear, an Afraic Thuaidh agus an tSaiheil, an Áise Thoir Theas, agus Oirdheisceart na hEorpa agus Oirthear na hEorpa. |

63.

| 64. | Rinneadh Tionscnamh CoE AE CBRN a mhaoiniú faoin Ionstraim lena gcuirtear le Cobhsaíocht agus le Síocháin (IcSP), ar tháinig deireadh léi in 2020 agus ar tháinig an Ionstraim um Chomharsanacht, Forbairt agus Comhar Idirnáisiúnta (NDICI) 2021-2027 ina hionad. Tá dul chun cinn déanta ag CoE AE CBRN maidir le rioscaí a bhaineann le hábhair CBRN a mhaolú, trí acmhainneachtaí agus comhar a fheabhsú ar an leibhéal náisiúnta agus réigiúnach agus trí chultúr sábháilteachta agus comhair a chur chun cinn, i gcomhréir le tuarascáil ó Chúirt Iniúchóirí na hEorpa ó 2018 (SR14/2018, CIE). Tugtar tacaíocht do thíortha rannpháirteacha agus iad ag iarraidh struchtúir náisiúnta agus réigiúnacha comhordúcháin agus rialachais a bhunú dá ndeoin féin trí bhíthin chur chuige réigiúnach faoi threallús an éilimh. Leis na hardáin sin, déantar beartais náisiúnta CBRN a fhorbairt agus a threisiú agus déantar acmhainneachtaí a fhorbairt bunaithe ar riachtanais shonracha, ar mheasúnuithe riosca agus ar phleananna gníomhaíochta náisiúnta. Tacaítear leo trí thionscadail éagsúla comhair réigiúnaigh a mhaoinítear faoin Tionscnamh agus atá oscailte d’ionstraimí eile maoiniúcháin. Ó 2010 i leith, tugadh maoiniú do 90 tionscadal réigiúnacha. Is é tuairim is EUR 275 milliún an buiséad don tionscnamh don tréimhse 11 bhliain a thosaigh in 2010. |

| 65. | Tá líonra na nIonad Barr Feabhais forbartha go maith anois. Le linn phaindéim COVID-19, chruthaigh sé a stóinsí agus a inbhuanaithe atá sé nuair a thionscain Rúnaíochtaí éagsúla Réigiúnacha sraith seimineár gréasáin chun saineolas a mhalartú agus chun taithí agus dea-chleachtais a roinnt maidir le bainistiú eipidéimí. An tacaíocht ad-hoc a tugadh do thíortha éagsúla, chabhraigh sé leo nósanna imeachta iomchuí a chur i bhfeidhm chun na chéad chásanna ionfhabhtaithe a bhrath. Le cúnamh fadtéarmach, agus béim ar leith á leagan ar an Afraic, leanfar d’acmhainneachtaí a mhéadú maidir le luathbhrath agus faireachas ar phataiginí fíorchontúirteacha le cur chuige na hAon Sláinte Amháin. Rinneadh Pleananna Gníomhaíochta Réigiúnacha CBRN agus comhar idir-réigiúnach a fhorbairt, nó táthar á bhforbairt, i réigiúin éagsúla (an Áise Láir, Oirdheisceart na hEorpa agus Oirthear na hEorpa, an Meánoirthear).
  Thairis sin, tá an Tionscnamh aibí a dhóthain chun tacú le tuilleadh gníomhaíochtaí lena dtabharfar aghaidh ar shaincheisteanna rialachais slándála a bhaineann leis an gcibearchoireacht, sceimhlitheoireacht, bonneagair chriticiúla, cógais fhalsaithe, bagairtí hibrideacha agus pléascáin, agus chun an comhar a fhorbairt a thuilleadh maidir le fóiréinsic núicléacha, rialú teorann agus rialú onnmhairithe earraí dé-úsáide. Ar na gníomhaíochtaí a dtacaíonn an Tionscnamh leo tá cur chun feidhme gníomhaíochtaí oideachais agus oiliúna maidir leis an tslándáil núicléach chun feabhas a chur ar an tslándáil núicléach, cleachtaí boird agus allamuigh a eagrú bunaithe ar chásanna smuigleála arm núicléach, oiliúint a chur ar ghairmithe óga na slándála núicléiche agus córas faisnéise réigiúnach um fhóiréinsic núicléach a bhunú. |

| 66. | Maidir leis na gnéithe inmheánacha a bhaineann le bagairtí CBRN a mhaolú, rinneadh athbhreithniú, ag deireadh 2019, ar chur chun feidhme an Phlean Gníomhaíochta maidir le feabhas a chur ar ullmhacht i gcoinne rioscaí don tslándáil cheimiceach, bhitheolaíoch, raideolaíoch agus núicléach, ar Plean é a thíolaic an Coimisiún i mí Dheireadh Fómhair 2017 mar chuid de Phacáiste cuimsitheach Frithsceimhlitheoireachta, agus meastar gurb é an creat beartais bailí i gcónaí é an doiciméad sin sa réimse CBRN. Le Clár Oibre Frithsceimhlitheoireachta 2020, treisíodh gnéithe éagsúla de CBRN, eadhon i ndáil leis an mbagairt ó oibreáin cheimiceacha agus i ndáil leis an mbithshlándáil. Maidir le hoibreáin cheimiceacha, tá an Coimisiún ag breathnú faoi láthair ar a indéanta atá sé srian a chur leis an rochtain atá ar chuid de na ceimiceáin is féidir a úsáid chun críocha mailíseacha. Rinneadh dul chun cinn mar a bhí beartaithe ar an obair maidir le brath CBRN — lena n-áirítear trialacha trealaimh a rinne roinnt de na Ballstáit agus arna gcomhordú ag an gCoimisiún. Mar sin féin, b’éigean gníomhaíochtaí éagsúla CBRN ar cuireadh tús leo in 2019 a chur ar athló arís in 2020; eadhon an feachtas oiliúna le haghaidh fhorfheidhmiú dhlí an Aontais maidir le bagairtí raideolaíocha, a bhí á chur chun feidhme in ionad oiliúna EUSECTRA in Karlsruhe na Gearmáine. |

| 67. | Tacaíonn tionscadail arna gcómhaoiniú ag an gCiste Slándála Inmheánaí — Póilíní — le cur chun feidhme an Phlean Gníomhaíochta. As measc na dtionscnamh a roghnaíodh, bhí tábhacht ar leith le dhá cheann acu ó thaobh beartas CBRN de. Breathnaíonn ceann acu (Mall-CBRN) ar chosaint agus ullmhacht CBRN in ionaid mhóra siopadóireachta, agus cuireann an ceann eile (Safe Stadium) cur chuige comhchosúil i bhfeidhm i gcás mórláithreacha spóirt, go háirithe staideanna peile. Tá sé ar cheann de na buntáistí a bhaineann leis an dá thionscnamh go bhfuil úsáideoirí deiridh ábhartha rannpháirteach sna cuibhreannais, e.g. an club peile Real Madrid. |

MEITHLEACHA MACHNAIMH

| 68. | Bunaithe ar Chinneadh 2010/430/CBES ón gComhairle (22), thacaigh Cuibhreannas AE maidir le Neamhleathadh agus Dí-Armáil, a chuaigh i mbun gníomhaíochta i mí Eanáir 2011, thacaigh sé go gníomhach le Straitéis an Aontais Eorpaigh i gcoinne leathadh arm ollscriosta. An 26 Feabhra 2018, ghlac an Chomhairle Cinneadh (CBES) 2018/299 (23), lena méadaítear tuilleadh an tacaíocht a thugann an tAontas do ghníomhaíochtaí an Chuibhreannais don tréimhse 2018-2022 trí chur leis an méid atá bainte amach go dtí seo agus trí thionscadail nua a chur leis. |

68.

| 69. | A bhuí le gníomhaíochtaí an Chuibhreannais, cuireadh le hinfheictheacht an Aontais vis-à-vis tríú tíortha agus an tsochaí shibhialta agus chuidigh na gníomhaíochtaí sin go mór le beartais AE i réimsí an neamhleathadh agus na dí-armála a mhúnlú. Cuireann an Cuibhreannas ardán ar fáil le haghaidh teagmhálacha neamhfhoirmiúla i measc cleachtóirí agus spreagann sé idirphlé idir geallsealbhóirí éagsúla. Chuidigh gníomhaíochtaí an Chuibhreannais le feasacht a mhúscailt ar na dúshláin a bhaineann le hairm ollscriosta agus le gnáth-airm, agus bhreathnaigh siad ar réitigh éagsúla lena bhféadfaí aghaidh a thabhairt ar na dúshláin sin. Baineann sé leas as Líonra fairsing de 104 meitheal machnaimh agus ionad taighde ó cheann ceann na hEorpa, lena n-áirítear comhaltaí ó Bhallstáit uile an Aontais Eorpaigh agus ó thíortha comhpháirtíochta amhail an Iorua, an tSeirbia, an Eilvéis, an Tuirc agus an Úcráin. Ghlac cúig institiúid ballraíocht sa Líonra in 2021. |

69.

| 70. | Leis na himeachtaí uile a thionóil an Cuibhreannas, áirithíodh go raibh éagsúlacht rannpháirtithe agus cainteoirí ann ó thaobh inscne, aoise, saineolais agus ionadaíocht gheografach de. Mar gheall ar na cúinsí a chruthaigh paindéim Covid-19, ba go fíorúil nó i bhformáid hibrideach a reáchtáladh na himeachtaí sin in 2021, cé is moite de cheann amháin acu. Go sonrach, le linn 2021, d’eagraigh an Cuibhreannas na gníomhaíochtaí seo a leanas chun gnéithe éagsúla de Chinneadh (CBES) 2018/299 a chur chun feidhme:

D’ullmhaigh COARM Cinneadh ón gComhairle maidir le deimhnithe úsáideora deiridh le haghaidh onnmhairiú mionarm agus arm éadrom agus a n-armlón. Glacadh an Cinneadh sin i mí Eanáir 2021, agus cuidíonn sé le tuilleadh cóineasaithe idir beartais onnmhairithe arm na mBallstát. Thosaigh SEGS ag obair ar bhunachar sonraí d’oifigigh cheadúnúcháin, rud a chuirfidh leis an gcóineasú idir beartais onnmhairithe arm na mBallstát. Lean COARM lena fhor-rochtain chuig geallsealbhóirí éagsúla, lena n-áirítear eagraíochtaí na sochaí sibhialta, ICRC agus le hionadaithe ó thionscal cosanta na hEorpa, agus lean sé leis an idirphlé rialta leis na geallsealbhóirí sin. |

| 73. | Lean an tAontas dá ghníomhaíochtaí for-rochtana freisin chun tacú le tríú tíortha córas rialaithe onnmhairí arm a bhunú, agus chun uilíochas ATT a chur chun cinn. Faoi Chinneadh (CBES) 2020/1464 ón gComhairle an 12 Deireadh Fómhair 2020 maidir le rialuithe éifeachtacha ar onnmhairiú arm a chur chun cinn (26), arna gcur chun feidhme ag Oifig Chónaidhme na Gearmáine um Ghnóthaí Eacnamaíocha agus Rialú ar Onnmhairiú (BAFA), tionóladh roinnt ceardlanna agus imeachtaí cúnaimh aonair, i bhformáid fhíorúil den chuid is mó de bharr na paindéime. Ina theannta sin, rinneadh gníomhaíochtaí breise réigiúnacha for-rochtana, cláir chúnaimh náisiúnta shaincheaptha agus ceardlanna cúnaimh aonair ad hoc a reáchtáil faoi Chinneadh (CBES) 2017/915 ón gComhairle (27) agus faoi Chinneadh (CBES) 2021/2309 ón gComhairle an 22 Nollaig 2021 maidir le gníomhaíochtaí for-rochtana an Aontais chun tacú le cur chun feidhme an Chonartha Trádála Arm (28) a thiocfaidh ina dhiaidh, arna chur chun feidhme ag BAFA agus Expertise France. In 2021, chinn an tAontas tacú le gníomhaíochtaí Rúnaíocht ATT chun tacú le cur chun feidhme an Chonartha Trádála Arm, trí Chinneadh (CBES) 2021/649 ón gComhairle (29). Leis an tionscadal seo déantar an creat iltaobhach tacaíochta atá mar bhonn ag ATT a neartú a thuilleadh. |

| 74. | Tionóladh cruinnithe idirphlé pholaitiúil leis an Iorua agus leis na Stáit Aontaithe in 2021 maidir le saincheisteanna rialaithe onnmhairí arm. Ba fhóram é an t-idirphlé polaitiúil sin le haghaidh plé tairbheach ar ábhair chomhleasa, amhail beartais onnmhairiúcháin chuig cinn scríbe sonracha, saincheisteanna comhlíonta agus rialaithe agus próiseas an Chonartha Trádála Arm. |

| 75. | I gcomhthéacs Chéad Choiste Chomhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe, chuir an tAontas Eorpach go gníomhach i gcoinne rún na Síne dar teideal an Comhar Idirnáisiúnta maidir le hÚsáidí Síochánta a Chur Chun Cinn i gComhthéacs na Slándála Idirnáisiúnta. Chuir na Sínigh rún ar aghaidh ag iarraidh ar Rúnaíocht na Náisiún Aontaithe tuairimí Bhallstáit uile na Náisiún Aontaithe a lorg maidir le “srianta míchuí” ar onnmhairiú earraí íogaire agus rialaithe chuig tíortha atá i mbéal forbartha. Measann an tAontas go gcruthaíonn an rún sin dichotaim bhréagach idir úsáid shíochánta ábhair núicléach, cheimiceacha agus bhitheolaíocha ar thaobh amháin, agus bearta agus réimis rialaithe onnmhairí ar an taobh eile. Tá gá le rialú onnmhairiúcháin chun an tsíocháin agus an tslándáil idirnáisiúnta a choimeád agus chun iomadú na n-ítimí agus na n-ábhar íogair a chosc. Eascraíonn na córais rialaithe onnmhairí atá ann cheana ó oibleagáidí dlíthiúla idirnáisiúnta. |
| --- | --- |

75.

| 76. | In 2021, lean an tAontas dá chuid rialachán a thabhairt cothrom le dáta go rialta chun forbairtí sna córais iltaobhacha rialaithe onnmhairí a léiriú. Dá bhrí sin, ghlac an Coimisiún Eorpach Rialachán Tarmligthe an 20 Deireadh Fómhair 2021, lena nuashonraítear liosta an Aontais maidir le rialú dé-úsáide i gcomhréir leis na cinntí a rinneadh i gcórais iltaobhacha rialaithe onnmhairí in 2020. Áirítear ar an liosta rialaithe nuashonraithe nóta nua maidir le rialú seomraí bithimshrianta, aonraitheoirí, nó caibinéid sábháilteachta bitheolaíochta chun aon aonraitheoirí a chomhlíonann na saintréithe uile atá luaite sa tuairisc ar an mír a chur san áireamh, beag beann ar an úsáid atá beartaithe agus a ainmniú. Tugtar isteach leis freisin athrú ar an sainmhíniú ar “fhor-chóimhiotail”, chun neart teanntachta deiridh na n-ábhar sin a shonrú. |

76.

| 77. | Lean an Grúpa Comhordúcháin um Dhé-Úsáid de bheith ag tacú le cur chun feidhme éifeachtach agus comhsheasmhach rialuithe onnmhairithe san Aontas. Forbraíodh feidhmiúlachtaí nua an “Córas Leictreonach Dé-Úsáide” in 2021 chun gur féidir forálacha nua an Rialacháin a chur i bhfeidhm e.g. comhroinnt faisnéise maidir le diúltú d’ítimí an-íogair a dhiúltú laistigh den Aontas. Cuireadh chun feidhme freisin feidhmiúlacht nua a thacaíonn le malartú faisnéise le hÚdarás Inniúil na Ríochta Aontaithe faoi Phrótacal Thuaisceart Éireann. Tar éis roinnt blianta ullmhúchán, tugadh isteach an Córas Leictreonach Ceadúnúcháin a d’fhorbair an Coimisiún in dhá Bhallstát (an Laitvia agus an Rómáin) in 2021, agus lean Ballstáit eile leis na hullmhúcháin chun é a thabhairt isteach in 2022. Foilsíodh an Tuarascáil Bhliantúil um Rialú Onnmhairiúcháin (30) chun trédhearcacht a áirithiú maidir le rialú onnmhairithe agus gníomhaíochtaí ceadúnaithe, agus eagraíodh Fóram Rialaithe Onnmhairithe 2021 an 8 Nollaig 2021, inar tugadh le chéile geallsealbhóirí ó na Ballstáit, ón tionscal agus ón tsochaí shibhialta (31). |

77.

| 78. | Mar thoradh ar an athbhreithniú ar bheartas rialaithe onnmhairí an Aontais, glacadh Rialachán (AE) 2021/821 (32) nua an 20 Bealtaine 2021 agus tháinig sé i bhfeidhm i mí Mheán Fómhair 2021. Ar na leasuithe cuimsitheacha a tugadh isteach leis an Rialachán nua chun éifeachtúlacht agus éifeachtacht na rialuithe a fheabhsú, áirítear sainmhínithe agus paraiméadair rialaithe nuashonraithe, comhchuibhiú, simpliú agus digitiú an cheadúnúcháin, méadú ar chomhroinnt faisnéise agus ar an gcomhar le tríú tíortha. Leis an Rialachán nua, tugtar isteach gné nua “slándáil an duine” ionas gur féidir leis an Aontas freagairt do na dúshláin a bhaineann le teicneolaíochtaí dé-úsáide atá ag teacht chun cinn — go háirithe teicneolaíochtaí cibearfhaireachais — lena mbaineann riosca don tslándáil náisiúnta agus idirnáisiúnta, lena n-áirítear cearta an duine a chosaint. Foráiltear leis freisin gur féidir leis an Aontas freagairt do dhúshláin a bhaineann le teicneolaíochtaí atá ag teacht chun cinn. |

78.

| 79. | Bhí tionchar suntasach ag an bpaindéim ar ghníomhaíochtaí na gcóras iltaobhach rialaithe onnmhairí in 2021; b’éigean cruinnithe iomlánacha a chur ar ceal, a chur ar athló nó a reáchtáil i bhformáid laghdaithe, agus ag an am céanna bhí cruinnithe fíorúla in ann dul i mbun roinnt oibre agus cinntí a dhéanamh maidir le tograí teicniúla. Ghlac an tAontas páirt i gcruinnithe Ghrúpa na hAstráile agus Ghrúpa na Soláthraithe Núicléacha (NSG). Cé gur tionóladh cruinniú iomlánach NSG i bhformáid fhisiceach laghdaithe agus nach ndearnadh ach cinnteoireacht theoranta agus, dá bharr sin, nár tháinig aon athrú ar Threoirlínte NSG, bhí ról lárnach aige maidir le leanúnachas gnó an Ghrúpa a chosaint. |

| 80. | Leanadh ar aghaidh i sé réigiún le cur chun feidhme Chlár P2P an Aontais um rialú ar onnmhairiú chun éifeachtacht na gcóras rialaithe onnmhairí le haghaidh ítimí dé-úsáide agus ábhair, trealaimh agus teicneolaíochtaí gaolmhara a fheabhsú. In 2021, cuimsíodh 41 tír sa Chlár, lena n-áirítear na tíortha sin atá mar chuid de Thionscnaimh Spriocdhírithe Rialaithe Onnmhairiúcháin le hIonad Eolaíochta agus Teicneolaíochta na hÚcráine agus leis an Ionad Idirnáisiúnta Eolaíochta agus Teicneolaíochta sa Chasacstáin, a chlúdaíonn 14 tír. Tionóladh roinnt ceardlann réigiúnach, imeachtaí cúnaimh náisiúnta agus seimineáir tacaíochta ad hoc, go fíorúil den chuid is mó mar gheall ar an bpaindéim. |
| --- | --- |

80.

| 81. | Leanadh de dhian-chomhordú a dhéanamh ar Chlár P2P an Aontais um rialú ar onnmhairiú le Roinn na Stát Aontaithe um Rialú Onnmhairithe agus Clár gaolmhar Slándála Teorann. Eagraíodh seimineáir chomhpháirteacha AE-SAM chun faisnéis a mhalartú faoi mhodheolaíochtaí um measúnú bagartha, chun comhtháscairí tionchair a shainiú agus chun cúnamh allamuigh a chomhordú. D’eagraigh FPI agus JRC an 7ú hOllscoil Samhraidh P2P an Aontais maidir le Rialuithe Straitéiseacha Trádála do thíortha comhpháirtíochta de chuid Chlár P2P an Aontais um rialú ar onnmhairiú i gcomhair Earraí Dé-Úsáide i bhformáid ar líne ón 16 go dtí an 20 Lúnasa 2021. Leanann tairseach P2P an Aontais https://cbrn-risk-mitigation.network.europa.eu/eu-p2p-export-control-programme_en de bheith ina hardán do chláir for-rochtana uile an Aontais maidir le rialú onnmhairithe gnátharm agus earraí dé-úsáide, agus é mar aidhm leis malartú faisnéise a shaincheapadh le tíortha comhpháirtíochta an Aontais. Leanfar den chlár a mhaoiniú faoi ICFCI — An Eoraip Dhomhanda. |

81.

| 82. | In 2021, d’fhoilsigh JRC an dara hathbhreithniú ar an Lámhleabhar maidir le Rialú ar Onnmhairiú le haghaidh Ceimiceán, agus an bunachar sonraí ar thairseach JRC á chur ar fáil aige freisin (33). |

82.

| 83. | I mí Eanáir 2021, d’fhoilsigh COM JRC ardán nua dé-úsáide TIM ar líne, lenar féidir 70 milliún achomaireacht taighde (Scopus), paitinní (Patstat) agus tionscadail atá maoinithe ag an Aontas (bunachar sonraí CORDIS) a mhapáil le níos mó ná 200 algartam cuardaigh ina gcuirtear béim ar dhoiciméid a d’fhéadfadh a bheith ábhartha maidir le dé-úsáid (34). |

83.

| 84. | Is éard atá sa Chóras Rialaithe um Theicneolaíocht Diúracán (MTCR) comhlachas neamhfhoirmiúil agus deonach de thíortha a roinneann na spriocanna maidir le neamhleathadh córas seachadta gan foireann atá in ann airm ollscriosta a sheachadadh, agus a fhéachann le comhordú a dhéanamh ar iarrachtaí náisiúnta um cheadúnú onnmhairí arb é is aidhm dóibh cosc a chur ar leathadh na gcóras sin. Tá gealltanas tugtha ag na rialtais atá rannpháirteach sa MTCR cloí le treoirlínte an chomhbheartais onnmhairiúcháin (Treoirlínte MTCR), treoirlínte a bhfuil feidhm acu maidir le liosta coiteann lárnach d’ítimí rialaithe (Iarscríbhinn MTCR maidir le Trealamh, Bogearraí agus Teicneolaíocht). Déanann comhpháirtithe MTCR faisnéis a mhalartú go rialta faoi shaincheisteanna ábhartha náisiúnta maidir le ceadúnú onnmhairiúcháin. Tagarmharc de dhea-chleachtais idirnáisiúnta iad treoirlínte agus liostaí rialaithe MTCR chun onnmhairithe ítimí agus teicneolaíochtaí a bhaineann le diúracáin a rialú. |
| --- | --- |

84.

| 85. | Tá saincheist a bhfuil tábhacht bhunúsach ag baint léi don Aontas i gcomhthéacs MTCR fós ina haontachas blocáilte le córas naoi mBallstát AE, eadhon an Chróit, an Chipir, an Eastóin, an Laitvia, an Liotuáin, Málta, an Rómáin, an tSlóvaic agus an tSlóivéin. |
| --- | --- |

85.

| 86. | Thairis sin, tá leanúnachas agus intuarthacht maidir le cathaoirleacht a dhéanamh ar chórais rialaithe onnmhairí amhail an MTCR ríthábhachtach d’fheidhmiú agus d’inchreidteacht na gcóras sin. Thíolaic Ballstáit an Aontais ar comhaltaí iad den MTCR páipéar neamhfhoirmiúil “Maidir le saincheisteanna Cathaoirleachta” le breithniú a dhéanamh ar an gcruinniú iomlánach inar scrúdaíodh roghanna maidir le cathaoirleacht inbhuanaithe ar an gCóras a spreagadh agus tacú leis. Leanfaidh an tAontas de bheith i mbun plé leis na comhaltaí maidir leis na roghanna éagsúla. I gcomhthéacs an Chórais, thacaigh an tAontas i gcónaí le glacadh Ráiteas Poiblí láidir de chuid MTCR a léiríonn imní idirnáisiúnta faoi lainseálacha na ndiúracán balaistíoch agus faoi fhorbairt shuntasach theicneolaíocht na ndiúracán ag an Iaráin agus ag DPRK. |

AN SPÁS

| 87. | Lean an tAontas agus na Ballstáit de bheith rannpháirteach go gníomhach i gcaomhnú timpeallacht spáis atá slán, sábháilte agus inbhuanaithe agus i ndáil le húsáid shíochánta an chianspáis a chur chun cinn ar bhonn cothrom agus inghlactha go frithpháirteach do chách, don ghlúin atá ann faoi láthair agus don ghlúin atá le teacht. Leanamar de bhéim a leagan ar an tábhacht a bhaineann le bearta trédhearcachta agus cothaithe muiníne agus ar an ngá atá ann tacú le hiompar freagrach sa chianspás i gcreat na Náisiún Aontaithe. I ndáil leis an méid sin, chuir an tAontas ráitis a bhaineann leis an spás ar fáil ag Comhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe. |
| --- | --- |

87.

| 88. | Bhí an tAontas agus a chuid Ballstát tiomanta go láidir i gcónaí do chosc a chur ar rás arm sa chianspás, rud atá bunriachtanach chun an tslándáil agus an chobhsaíocht idirnáisiúnta a neartú agus chun úsáid fhadtéarmach thimpeallacht an spáis a chosaint chun críoch síochánta. Leanamar orainn ag cur in iúl gur cúis imní dúinn forbairt na n-arm agus na gcumas frith-shatailíte go léir, lena n-áirítear ar talamh, agus leagaimid béim ar a thábhachtaí atá sé aghaidh a thabhairt ar fhorbairtí den sórt sin go pras agus mar chuid d’iarrachtaí idirnáisiúnta chun cosc a chur ar rás arm sa chianspás. |
| --- | --- |

88.

| 89. | Ba dhíol sásaimh don Aontas agus do na Ballstáit gur bunaíodh an Mheitheal um Inbhuanaitheacht Fhadtéarmach Gníomhaíochtaí Cianspáis faoi Fhochoiste Eolaíoch agus Teicniúil an Choiste um Úsáidí Síochánacha an Chianspáis. Éascóidh an Mheitheal an taithí agus na dea-chleachtais agus na ceachtanna a foghlaimíodh ó chur chun feidhme na dtreoirlínte a glacadh a roinnt, cuideoidh sí le feasacht a mhúscailt agus le fothú acmhainneachta, agus tabharfaidh sí aghaidh ar dhúshláin nua d’inbhuanaitheacht fhadtéarmach na ngníomhaíochtaí cianspáis, amhail mega-chonarálacha. |

89.

| 90. | Tar éis ghlacadh an rúin nua maidir le bagairtí a laghdú trí iompar freagrach, Rún 75/36 ó Chomhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe (35), rannchuidigh an tAontas Eorpach agus a Bhallstáit leis an tuarascáil ó Ardrúnaí na Náisiún Aontaithe ina raibh rannchuidiú comhpháirteach ón Aontas agus rannchuidithe náisiúnta éagsúla. Thairis sin, ba dhíol sásaimh dóibh gur glacadh Rún 76/231 ó Chomhthionól Ginearálta na Náisiún Aontaithe maidir le “Bagairtí spáis a laghdú trí noirm, rialacha agus prionsabail iompraíochta freagracha” (36), mar chéim thráthúil chun cuidiú le bagairtí agus rioscaí a bhaineann leis an gcianspás a laghdú agus chun iompar freagrach a chur chun cinn sa chianspás, go háirithe faoi chuimsiú na Náisiún Aontaithe. Thacaigh siad go hiomlán le bunú na Meithle Oscailte, a réitíonn an bealach chun mionphlé a dhéanamh ar bhagairtí a laghdú trí iompar freagrach. Mhol siad do na tíortha uile páirt chuiditheach a ghlacadh chun teacht ar chomhthuiscint maidir le hiompar freagrach sa chianspás, rud a rannchuideoidh an tAontas go comhpháirteach leis. Dhearbhaigh siad freisin an tábhacht a bhaineann leis na hiarrachtaí a shaothrú agus a threisiú go comhpháirteach chun aghaidh a thabhairt ar dhúshláin sa chianspás, le rannpháirtíocht Bhallstáit uile na Náisiún Aontaithe agus na n-eagraíochtaí ábhartha. |

CLÁSAIL MAIDIR LE NEAMHLEATHADH ARM OLLSCRIOSTA

| 91. | I gcomhréir lena bheartas maidir le neamhleathadh arm ollscriosta, agus i gcomhréir leis na Conclúidí ón gComhairle in 2003, lean an tAontas d’obair a dhéanamh ar phríomhshruthú na ngealltanas maidir le neamhleathadh arm ollscriosta i gcomhaontuithe le tíortha comhpháirtíochta. In 2021, rinneadh caibidlíocht leis an Téalainn maidir le Comhaontú Comhpháirtíochta agus Comhair. |

FÓRAIM ILTAOBHACHA EILE

| 92. | Lean an tAontas de bheith rannpháirteach go gníomhach i gcruinnithe Ghrúpa Stiúrthóirí um Neamhleathadh G7 (NPDG). In 2021, ghlac an tAontas páirt sna cruinnithe faoi Uachtaránacht na Ríochta Aontaithe, inar díríodh ar shaincheisteanna tráthúla maidir le neamhleathadh agus dí-armáil chomh maith le tuilleadh dul chun cinn a dhéanamh i gcomhordú obair NPDG maidir le freagairt chomhordaithe ar bhriogálacha leanúnacha DPDC agus ar an meastóireacht ar choimircí IAEA. |

92.

| 93. | Tá an tAontas tiomanta i gcónaí don Chomhpháirtíocht Dhomhanda i gcoinne Leathadh Arm agus Ábhar Ollscriosta. In 2021, ghlac an tAontas Cinneadh ón gComhairle chun tacú le hathléimneacht a chothú sa bhithshábháilteacht agus sa bhithshlándáil trí BTWC i gcomhthéacs an Tionscnaimh um Shíniú Comhpháirtíochta Domhanda chun an Bhagairt Bhitheolaíoch san Afraic a spreagadh. Thairis sin, glacann an tAontas páirt sa Chomhpháirtíocht Dhomhanda tríd an gcúnamh teicniúil (measúnú ar an mbagairt, pleananna gníomhaíochta náisiúnta) a chuireann Tionscnamh Ionaid Barr Feabhais an Aontais ar fáil ar fud an domhain maidir le maolú riosca CBRN. |

Comprehensive technology solutions for detection, protection, decontamination, mitigation, containment and disposal should also be elaborated. CBRN incidents require full utilization of national resources to respond to and mitigate the consequences of such emergencies. The main responsibility in cases of CBRN emergencies falls upon first responders. It is therefore essential that countries build upon their national resources to mitigate and respond to the consequences of an emergency situation. Best-practices should thus be exchanged amongst these first responders at MIE regional level and CBRN risk mitigation knowledge developed. It should also result in increased awareness of stocks of hazardous chemical agents, their pre-cursors as this is one of the means of targeting illicit use and /or trafficking of WMD. | Wojskowy Instytut Higieny i Epidemiologii | 3 914 034 | 12.2013-12.2016 |

Strengthening Capacities in CBRN Response and in Chemical and Medical Emergency

The CBRN emergency response needs to be identified and prioritised per country. Comprehensive technology solutions for detection, protection, decontamination, mitigation, containment and disposal should also be elaborated. CBRN incidents require full utilization of national resources to respond to and mitigate the consequences of such emergencies. The main responsibility in cases of CBRN emergencies falls upon first responders. It is therefore essential that countries build upon their national resources to mitigate and respond to the consequences of an emergency situation. Best-practices should thus be exchanged amongst these first responders at MIE regional level and CBRN risk mitigation knowledge developed. It should also result in increased awareness of stocks of hazardous chemical agents, their pre-cursors as this is one of the means of targeting illicit use and /or trafficking of WMD.
