| 13. | U cilju unapređivanja miroljubivog korištenja nuklearnom energijom EU je u razdoblju od 2014. do 2020. dodijelio 225 milijuna EUR za promicanje nuklearne sigurnosti, zaštite od zračenja te primjene učinkovitih i djelotvornih zaštitnih mjera u trećim zemljama. EU i njegove države članice pridaju iznimnu važnost provedbi i kontinuiranom poboljšanju nuklearne sigurnosti diljem svijeta. Jedan od ciljeva Direktive Vijeća 2009/71/Euratom od 25. lipnja 2009. o uspostavi okvira Zajednice za nuklearnu sigurnost nuklearnih postrojenja (4) jest spriječiti nezgode te, u slučaju da do njih dođe, ublažiti posljedice izbjegavanjem ranih i velikih radioaktivnih ispuštanja. EU i njegove države članice i dalje snažno podupiru program tehničke suradnje IAEA-e, među ostalim putem znatnih doprinosa Fondu za tehničku suradnju i Inicijativi za miroljubivo korištenje. Status EU-a kao drugog najvećeg donatora Programu za tehničku suradnju također ukazuje na njegovu predanost svim trima stupovima Ugovora o zabrani širenja nuklearnog oružja. |

Ugovor o sveobuhvatnoj zabrani nuklearnih pokusa

| 15. | Rano stupanje CTBT-a na snagu i njegova univerzalnost važni su ciljevi Strategije EU-a protiv širenja oružja za masovno uništenje. Sve države članice EU-a pokazale su predanost Ugovoru tako što su ga ratificirale i privremeno primijenile njegove temeljne obveze. EU sustavno promiče prednosti i dodanu vrijednost Ugovora miru, sigurnosti i neširenju oružja, među ostalim i u njegovim civilnim primjenama, i financijski podupire Organizaciju za provođenje ugovora o cjelovitoj zabrani nuklearnih pokusa (CTBTO). |

Regionalna pitanja

| 23. | Programi za nuklearno oružje, oružje za masovno uništenje i balističke projektile Demokratske Narodne Republike Koreje te njezina odluka da prekine svu suradnju s IAEA-om i dalje su razlog za poveću zabrinutost EU-a. EU je najstrože osudio nuklearni program i program balističkih projektila DNRK-a. Poruka Europske unije nedvosmislena je: DNRK mora, podložno provjeri, potpuno i nepovratno ukinuti svoj nuklearni program, program oružja za masovno uništenje i program balističkih projektila, smjesta prestati sa svim povezanim aktivnostima te ponovno poštovati Ugovor o neširenju nuklearnog oružja i zaštitne mjere IAEA-e. Predsjednik Europskog vijeća i visoka predstavnica EU-a za vanjske poslove i sigurnosnu politiku dali su čvrste izjave nakon nuklearnog pokusa koji je DNRK izveo 3. rujna 2017. CTBTO je odmah učinkovito reagirao na nuklearni pokus koji je izveo DNRK te je time pokazao sposobnost režima provjere da pruži neovisne i pouzdane podatke. To je bio važan doprinos regionalnoj i međunarodnoj stabilnosti.

| 32. | U tom je pogledu EU podržao odluku glavnog direktora OPCW-a da misija za utvrđivanje činjenica nastavi s radom i da tim za procjenu izjava nastavi proučavati nedostatke i neusklađenosti u sirijskim izjavama. EU je pozdravio donošenje RVSUN-a 2319 (2016) kojim se za jednu godinu produljuje mandat zajedničkog istražnog mehanizma OPCW-a i UN-a koji je uspostavljen RVSUN-om 2235 (2015) radi utvrđivanja počinitelja napadâ kemijskim oružjem u Siriji te je istodobno s velikom zabrinutošću primijetio da je u 2017. Vijeće sigurnosti UN-a opet bilo spriječeno u obnavljanju mandata zajedničkog istražnog mehanizma. U izvješćima zajedničkog istražnog mehanizma iz 2016. i 2017. potvrđeno je da su sirijske oružane snage upotrijebile klorni plin u tri navrata, a sarin u jednom navratu. Zajednički istražni mehanizam također je utvrdio da je ISIL odgovoran za uporabu sumpornog iperita u dvama incidentima. Odlukom Vijeća (ZVSP) 2015/2215 (6) donesenom 30. studenoga 2015. EU je pružio financijsku potporu u iznosu od 4,6 milijuna EUR za troškove povezane s aktivnostima zajedničkog istražnog mehanizma u skladu s RVSUN-om 2235 (2015). Odlukom Vijeća (ZVSP) 2017/2303 (7) od 12. prosinca 2017. i Odlukom Vijeća (ZVSP) 2017/2302 (8) od 12 prosinca 2017. EU je pružio pomoć OPCW-u za osiguravanje satelitskog snimanja kao potpore operacijama u Siriji (1 milijun EUR) te za dekontaminaciju bivše lokacije za skladištenje libijskog kemijskog oružja u Ruwaghi (3,3 milijuna EUR). |

REZOLUCIJA VIJEĆA SIGURNOSTI UJEDINJENIH NARODA 1540 I SMANJENJE RIZIKA U PODRUČJU KBRN-a

| 46. | Rezolucija Vijeća sigurnosti UN-a 1540 (2004) ostaje središnji stup u međunarodnoj arhitekturi posvećenoj neširenju oružja. Prvi je to međunarodni instrument koji se na cjelovit i sveobuhvatan način bavi oružjem za masovno uništenje, načinima njihove isporuke i povezanim materijalima. RVSUN-om 1540 (2004) utvrđuju se obvezujuće obveze za sve zemlje. Njima se želi spriječiti i odvratiti nedržavne aktere od dobivanja pristupa takvom oružju i materijalima povezanima s oružjem. Rezolucijom, donesenom u skladu s poglavljem VII. Povelje Ujedinjenih naroda, od svih se zemalja traži da donesu nužno zakonodavstvo kojim se nedržavnim akterima zabranjuje nabava nuklearnog, kemijskog ili biološkog oružja i da uspostave prikladne nacionalne kontrole za povezane materijale kako bi se spriječilo nezakonito trgovanje njima. Središnja uloga, važnost i autoritet RVSUN-a 1540 potvrđeni su sveobuhvatnim postupkom preispitivanja iz 2016. kako je navedeno u RVSUN-u 2325. |

RVSUN-om 1540 (2004) utvrđuju se obvezujuće obveze za sve zemlje. Njima se želi spriječiti i odvratiti nedržavne aktere od dobivanja pristupa takvom oružju i materijalima povezanima s oružjem. Rezolucijom, donesenom u skladu s poglavljem VII. Povelje Ujedinjenih naroda, od svih se zemalja traži da donesu nužno zakonodavstvo kojim se nedržavnim akterima zabranjuje nabava nuklearnog, kemijskog ili biološkog oružja i da uspostave prikladne nacionalne kontrole za povezane materijale kako bi se spriječilo nezakonito trgovanje njima. Središnja uloga, važnost i autoritet RVSUN-a 1540 potvrđeni su sveobuhvatnim postupkom preispitivanja iz 2016. kako je navedeno u RVSUN-u 2325.

| 47. | Kako bi se doprinijelo u provedbi ishoda sveobuhvatnog preispitivanja iz 2016. te podržala potpuna provedba RVSUN-a 1540, Vijeće je 11. svibnja 2017. donijelo Odluku Vijeća (ZVSP) 2017/809 (14) o potpori provedbi Rezolucije Vijeća sigurnosti Ujedinjenih naroda 1540 (2004) o suzbijanju širenja oružja za masovno uništenje i načinima njegove isporuke. Odlukom Vijeća obuhvaćeno je razdoblje od 36 mjeseci, a provedbu izvršava Ured UN-a za pitanja razoružanja u New Yorku, koji je dio provedbe prenio na OESS u Beču. EU dijeli te ciljeve koji se sastoje u pomaganju zemljama da utvrde posebnu tehničku pomoć koja im je potrebna, podizanju svijesti o relevantnim programima tehničke pomoći i poboljšanju suradnje s međunarodnim i regionalnim organizacijama radi podržavanja izgradnje nacionalnih kapaciteta. |

Comprehensive technology solutions for detection, protection, decontamination, mitigation, containment and disposal should also be elaborated. CBRN incidents require full utilisation 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.

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 utilisation 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.
