The Parties to the Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of North Macedonia on operational activities carried out by the European Border and Coast Guard Agency in the Republic of North Macedonia take note of the close relationship between the European Union and Iceland, the Kingdom of Norway, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein, particularly by virtue of the Agreements of 18 May 1999 and 26 October 2004 concerning the association of those countries with the implementation, application and development of the Schengen acquis.

In such circumstances it is desirable that the authorities of Iceland, the Kingdom of Norway, the Swiss Confederation and the Principality of Liechtenstein, on the one hand, and the Republic of North Macedonia, on the other hand, conclude, without delay, bilateral agreements on operational activities carried out by the European Border and Coast Guard Agency in the Republic of North Macedonia in terms similar to those of the Agreement between the European Union and the Republic of North Macedonia on operational activities carried out by the European Border and Coast Guard Agency in the Republic of North Macedonia.

COMMISSION DELEGATED REGULATION (EU) 2022/1959

of 13 July 2022

supplementing Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to regulatory technical standards setting out a contractual template for liquidity contracts for the shares of issuers whose financial instruments are admitted to trading on an SME growth market

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 April 2014 on market abuse (market abuse regulation) and repealing Directive 2003/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Commission Directives 2003/124/EC, 2003/125/EC and 2004/72/EC (1) and in particular Article 13(13), third subparagraph, thereof,

Whereas:

| (1) | Article 13(12) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 provides that issuers of financial instruments admitted to trading on an SME growth market may enter into a liquidity contract for their shares where such contracts comply with, inter alia, the conditions for establishing accepted market practices laid down in Article 13(2) of that Regulation. These conditions ensure that liquidity contracts set a high degree of safeguards to the operation of market forces and the proper interplay of the forces of supply and demand, have a positive impact on market liquidity and efficiency and do not create risks for the integrity of related markets. The contractual template for liquidity contracts provided therein which aims at ensuring compliance with these conditions, lays down the minimum elements that a liquidity contract should contain, including as regards transparency to the market and performance of the liquidity provisions. Parties are free to insert additional clauses to reflect the specificities of the individual case, in accordance with their freedom to contract. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Article 13(12) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014 provides that issuers of financial instruments admitted to trading on an SME growth market may enter into a liquidity contract for their shares where such contracts comply with, inter alia, the conditions for establishing accepted market practices laid down in Article 13(2) of that Regulation. These conditions ensure that liquidity contracts set a high degree of safeguards to the operation of market forces and the proper interplay of the forces of supply and demand, have a positive impact on market liquidity and efficiency and do not create risks for the integrity of related markets. The contractual template for liquidity contracts provided therein which aims at ensuring compliance with these conditions, lays down the minimum elements that a liquidity contract should contain, including as regards transparency to the market and performance of the liquidity provisions. Parties are free to insert additional clauses to reflect the specificities of the individual case, in accordance with their freedom to contract.

| (2) | The resources of an issuer of financial instruments that are admitted to trading on an SME growth market and that are allocated for the performance of a liquidity contract for the shares of that issuer should be immediately identifiable. The liquidity contract should therefore provide for the opening of a dedicated liquidity account. Such dedicated liquidity account is needed to monitor the performance of the liquidity contract and to ensure that the trading conducted for the purposes of the liquidity contract is separated from other trading activities carried out by the liquidity provider, thus minimising the risks of conflicts of interests. Such liquidity account should be endowed with an amount of resources in cash and shares that should be specified in the liquidity contract. Such resources should be used for the sole purpose of the performance of the liquidity contract. |

Such liquidity account should be endowed with an amount of resources in cash and shares that should be specified in the liquidity contract. Such resources should be used for the sole purpose of the performance of the liquidity contract.

| (3) | The resources allocated to the liquidity contract (‘resource limits’) should be proportionate to the objectives laid down in Article 13(2) of Regulation (EU) No 596/2014. For the same reason, trading by the liquidity provider should be subject to price and volume limits, which would, together with resource limits, minimise the risk that the liquidity provision results in artificial changes in the share price and would, at the same time, promote regular trading of illiquid shares. |

| (4) | Under previous accepted market practices on liquidity contracts, competent authorities have analysed the average trading turnover of shares listed on SME growth markets. That analysis has shown that resource limits should depend on the liquidity profile of the shares concerned (liquid vs illiquid) and take into account the trading activity occurring on the market concerned. Based on that analysis, it is appropriate that the liquidity contract provides for resource limits that are set as a percentage of the average daily turnover for the share concerned, with such percentage being calibrated on the basis of the liquidity profile of the share and being capped to avoid any negative impact of the liquidity contract on market integrity and on the orderly functioning of the market. To allow for an effective liquidity provision where the average daily turnover is low, a single threshold for the resources of the liquidity contract should apply. |

(5)

Price limits should ensure that the trading activity of the liquidity provider performed in the framework of the liquidity contract does not lead to artificial changes in the share prices when there is independent trading interest available.

| (6) | Volume limits should ensure that trades performed by the liquidity provider do not exceed a maximum percentage of the average daily turnover for illiquid and liquid shares. It is appropriate that the calculation of such average daily turnover is based on the 20 trading days preceding the trading day. Such calculation appropriately represents trading in the share concerned, because it provides for a medium-term picture, absorbing the effect of trading peaks over a single or few trading sessions. |

Such calculation appropriately represents trading in the share concerned, because it provides for a medium-term picture, absorbing the effect of trading peaks over a single or few trading sessions.

| (7) | To diminish the risks of market abuse, in normal market circumstances, the liquidity contract should provide that the liquidity provider enter orders to trade on both sides of the order book, except in the exceptional cases impeding the normal functioning of the market. For the same reason, orders that are large in scale and negotiated transactions should be within the scope of the liquidity contract, provided that certain conditions concerning the execution of such orders are met and that those trades take place in exceptional situations. Such exceptional situations may occur where, at a specific point in time, the proportion between the resources in cash and shares available to the liquidity provider does not allow the latter to provide liquidity under the contract. |

| (8) | The liquidity contract should require the liquidity provider to perform its liquidity contract independently from the issuer of the share concerned and from the trading decisions of other trading desks, groups or units within the liquidity provider, engaging in trading activities on that share or on financial instruments the price or value of which depends or has an effect on the price or value of the share concerned. Such independence of the liquidity provider is necessary to avoid risks to market integrity. |

Such independence of the liquidity provider is necessary to avoid risks to market integrity.

| (9) | To avoid any risks for the integrity and orderly functioning of the SME growth market concerned, the variable remuneration of the liquidity provider should be limited. In addition, to ensure a level playing field, such limits should apply in a consistent manner to all liquidity contracts entered into by issuers whose financial instruments are admitted to trading on an SME growth market. The maximum limits for the variable part of the remuneration should however be fixed at a reasonable percentage of the total remuneration to allow for an incentive for the liquidity provider to properly perform the contract, without being so substantial as to incentivise behaviours which may pose a risk to the integrity and orderly functioning of the market concerned. |

| (10) | Transparency in respect of the liquidity contracts ensures market integrity and investor protection. To enable other market participants to make an informed decision about the shares subject to the liquidity contract, the liquidity contract should provide for transparency obligations covering the various stages of the provision of liquidity, namely before entry into force of the liquidity contract, during its duration and after its termination. In this respect, it is necessary to identify one party that will be in charge of the transparency obligations. To make it easier for the public to gather information on the shares concerned, that party should be the issuer, which should publish the relevant information on its website. |

(5)

Action by the Union in the sector of inland navigation should aim to ensure uniformity in the development of technical requirements and specifications applied in the Union, in particular as regards inland navigation vessels and RIS.

| (6) | For the purpose of efficient transport and safe navigation on the inland waterways, it is important that the technical requirements for vessels and RIS are compatible and as harmonised as possible under different legal regimes in Europe. In particular, Member States which are also members of the CCNR should support decisions harmonising the CCNR rules with those applied in the Union. |

In particular, Member States which are also members of the CCNR should support decisions harmonising the CCNR rules with those applied in the Union.

| (7) | The CESNI, in its next meeting on 13 October 2022, is expected to adopt the European Standard laying down Technical Requirements for Inland Navigation vessels 2023/1 (‘ES-TRIN 2023/1’) and the European Standard for River Information Services 2023/1 (‘ES-RIS 2023/1’). |

| (8) | ES-TRIN 2023/1 lays down uniform technical requirements necessary to ensure the safety of inland navigation vessels. It includes provisions regarding shipbuilding, fitting out and equipment for inland navigation vessels, special provisions regarding specific categories of vessels such as passenger vessels, pushed convoys and container vessels, provisions regarding the automatic identification system equipment, provisions regarding vessel identification, a model of certificates and register, transitional provisions, as well as instructions for the application of the technical standard. |

| (9) | Annex II to Directive (EU) 2016/1629 of the European Parliament and of the Council (1) refers to the technical requirements for craft as being those provided in ES-TRIN 2021/1. The Commission is empowered to update this reference in Annex II to that Directive to the most recent version of the ES-TRIN standard and to set the date of its application. Therefore, ES-TRIN 2023/1 will affect Directive (EU) 2016/1629. |

ANNEX

PROJECT DOCUMENT SUPPORTING THE UNITED NATIONS PROGRAMME OF ACTION TO PREVENT, COMBAT AND ERADICATE THE ILLICIT TRADE IN SMALL ARMS AND LIGHT WEAPONS IN ALL ITS ASPECTS

1.   Background

The adoption of the United Nations Programme of Action to Prevent, Combat and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in All Its Aspects (PoA) in 2001 marked a turning point in international efforts to counter the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons (SALW). Since then, important progress has been made in implementing the provisions of the PoA and its tracing instrument, the 2005 International Instrument to Enable States to Identify and Trace, in a Timely and Reliable Manner, Illicit Small Arms and Light Weapons (ITI). However, challenges and obstacles still stand in the way of the full and effective implementation of both instruments.

Effective small arms control does not only contribute to strengthening national and human security. It also promotes sustainable development as recognized by states in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which serves as an umbrella for comprehensive global policymaking and programming. The illicit flows of arms play a central role in initiating, exacerbating, and sustaining armed conflict, pervasive violence and acts of crime and terrorism. These flows, particularly in conflict settings, negatively affect the work of humanitarian and peace operations personnel and complicate the conclusion of peace agreements.

The PoA and ITI continue to provide the universal framework, which all UN Member States have agreed upon, for tackling the small arms problem, committing all states to improve national small arms laws and policies, import/export controls, stockpile management, marking and tracing, and to engage in cooperation and assistance. Yet, new challenges related to SALW control, among them developments in SALW manufacturing, technology and design, have emerged over the past decades which could undermine the effectiveness of some of the provisions set out in the PoA and ITI.

The eighth Biennial Meeting of States (BMS8), which took place in June 2022, and the fourth Review Conference (RevCon4), scheduled for 2024, provide opportunities for states to take stock of the remaining gaps, address new challenges and set in motion remedial and corrective policy and operational measures, enabling States to strengthen the global policy agenda and the effectiveness of the PoA and ITI.

From commitments to action

Despite commendable progress at the global policy level, firm national and regional actions are still required to implement the global commitments and regional instruments states have agreed upon. With an estimated one billion firearms in circulation worldwide (1), SALW control remains an urgent and pressing task.

Requests for international assistance (2) remain high. Enhanced, sustainable, and predictable assistance mechanisms are required to meet the demands and strengthen the control and regulation of SALW. For many states to fully meet political commitments related to small arms control, including those under the 2030 Agenda for Development, international assistance is needed.

Many states continue to lack national coordination mechanisms and in many countries where they exist, they are weak. These mechanisms are essential to the harmonization of national policies and programmes, the development, implementation and evaluation and monitoring of comprehensive national policies, strategies, and programmes to address small arms problems. The number of national action plans on SALW remains low and, where they exist, the allocation of funds or integration into wider national development and security frameworks is lacking. Data collection continues to be a major challenge in many states, undermining tracing, and the quantitative monitoring of implementation efforts. Where data is available, harmonizing and disaggregating national data remains challenging. While relative progress has been made on marking, consistently high demands for assistance are received for stockpile management, record-keeping, transfer controls and tracing. (3) With tracing being part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) framework, low success rates in this framework undermine the achievement of the 2030 Agenda in particular. (4)

Since the Sixth Biennial Meeting of States in 2016, significant progress has been made globally on strengthening the linkages between small arms control and gender equality. The unique, deeply societal characteristics of the small arms issue necessitates a comprehensive mainstreaming of gender perspectives in all dimensions of small arms control. Notable progress in the implementation of gender-related provisions is visible in national reports submitted by Member States to UNODA, indicating a jump from 40% to 63% between 2018 and 2022 of States which now take account of gender considerations in small arms control. (5)

The EU’s Council Decision (CFSP) 2018/2011 of 17 December 2018 in support of gender mainstreamed policies, programmes and actions in the fight against small arms trafficking and misuse, in line with the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) agenda which deployed its activities in Africa, Asia and the Pacific and Latin America and the Caribbean, has played a significant role in those efforts. Nevertheless, the depth and geographical implementation of such efforts varies widely and only 24% of States reportedly collect sex and age disaggregated data related to small arms. (6) Without the benefits of accurate, detailed, and evidence-based information on the different risks that small arms present to women, men, girls and boys and their specific security needs, small arms control interventions are likely remaining gender-blind, hampering effective policy and programmatic developments and impeding achievement of SDG 5. Further advances in this regard will also benefit the implementation of the WPS agenda, with the new WPS Monitoring Framework including an indicator on the “Number of countries taking into account gender considerations in the implementation of the Programme of Action (PoA) on small arms and light weapons” which this project will contribute to.

The small-arms issue manifesting itself in vastly different ways around the world and the challenges faced at the national level regarding the circulation of illicit SALW reflect unique combinations of circumstances and contexts. Consequently, progress in implementation can only, to a limited extent, be a concerted, globally coordinated effort, but must rather be based on national and regional ownership and priorities. Hence, states agreed at the Seventh Biennial Meeting of States on the PoA (BMS7) “to consider the establishment of voluntary national and regional targets in line with the provisions of the Programme of Action, taking into account varying national and regional contexts, with a view to strengthening national and regional ownership and the measurability of implementation progress.” (7) Such targets should relate to actions set out in national action plans or strategies on SALW, including regional roadmaps, and should be measurable and be aligned with the PoA and ITI as well as the Goals and targets agreed in the 2030 Agenda. Moreover, national efforts on SALW control must be harmonized with other national frameworks relevant to security, gender equality and development, whenever they exist.

States will look to the UN Secretariat for guidance and assistance in implementing this new target-driven approach, which ultimately provides a unique opportunity for more tailored international assistance requests and resource allocation as well. (8) The recent trends in the establishment of regional roadmaps/action plans and programmes are an excellent example of how target setting can facilitate progress on implementation, while ensuring that coordinated assistance is provided to support those efforts.

Building on previous projects and successes, paving the way forward

The European Union and its Member States have provided valuable financial contributions in support of the PoA to the United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA) and its regional centres over the past years, supporting the preparations of Review Conferences under the PoA (9); financing operational aspects such as enhanced stockpile management in Africa (10); and most recently supporting gender mainstreamed policies, programmes and actions in the fight against small arms trafficking and misuse, in line with the Women, Peace and Security agenda (11).

Tangible outcomes of those projects included the agreement of a forward-looking outcome document at the Third Review Conference (12) enabled by expert discussions, regional consultations and a sponsorship programme that ensured a wider and more equitable participation of states and civil society representatives at the Conference. In Africa, operational and technical capacities were enhanced which concretely strengthened the Physical Security and Stockpile Management (PSSM) in Burkina Faso, Chad, Mali, Mauritania, Niger, and Nigeria. The ongoing gender and small arms control project built national capacities in countries worldwide in support of gender-responsive small arms control, trained representatives of regional and sub-regional organizations on the issue, and significantly enhanced synergies between small arms control efforts and the implementation of the Women, Peace and Security agenda.

This project proposal builds on those previous projects and their successes, while introducing a new, three-fold approach to advance the effective implementation of the PoA and the ITI.

The new project will enable UNODA and its regional centres to ensure that global policy making, and national and regional implementation are aligned, and cross-regional learning continues to take place.

2.   Project objectives, activities, and outcomes

The overriding objective of the project is to enhance international, regional and national security, contribute to the realization of human security and promote sustainable development through SALW control.

This will be achieved through a cross-cutting approach, supporting work on (1) forward-looking global policy developments in the context of the Fourth Review Conference; (2) effective national and regional implementation of the PoA and ITI; and a particular focus on (3) gender-responsive small arms control policies and programmes.

In tandem, the three pillars will bolster the PoA and ITI as universal global small arms control frameworks and ensure their continued relevance and effectiveness.

Outcomes across all three pillars:

| — | Engagement with regional and sub-regional organizations is increased, enabling a more streamlined approach to policy and implementation efforts on the sub-regional, regional and global levels. |

3.1.2   Activities

Virtual expert roundtable discussions to develop action-oriented recommendations related to SALW control in support of RevCon4.

Through a series of virtual expert roundtable different topics are discussed and explored to ensure the relevance and effectiveness of the PoA and ITI. The roundtable topics will be determined based on the outcomes of BMS8 (i.e., selected from the BMS8 outcome document’s priority areas for further action and consideration at RevCon4). The President-designate of RevCon4 will be invited to all expert roundtables. This activity will be implemented in collaboration with UNIDIR. All expert roundtable meetings will be conducted virtually. The key findings and recommendations of each roundtable will be presented and discussed at all regional meetings.

Substantive and inclusive preparations for RevCon4

Regional meetings will provide a forum for participating States and respective regional organizations to identify region-specific SALW-related challenges and discuss regional priorities for RevCon4. The President-designate of RevCon4 will be invited to all regional meetings.

Other regions and regional organizations will typically organize a preparatory meeting for RevCon4 such as the European Union, the League of Arab States, the Pacific and the OSCE. The project does not need to cover those regions. Upon request, UNODA can participate/be involved in any of those regional meetings to present the findings of the expert roundtable discussions. This activity will be implemented by UNODA and its regional centres in late 2023 / early 2024, with substantive support from UNIDIR. All activities will take place in-person.

The following five regional meetings are suggested:

| Countries from sub-regions | Regional organisations | Regional centre | Venue |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| West Africa and Central Africa | AU, ECCAS, ECOWAS, RECSA, UEMOA, G5 Sahel | UNREC | Lomé, Togo |

Sponsorship programme for participants of developing or severely affected countries to attend RevCon4

Because of a lack of funds, many developing countries struggle to be represented at PoA review conferences by their key officials dealing with SALW issues in capital. A sponsorship programme for a selected group of most-affected countries would enable their participation, thus enriching the deliberations at RevCon4. It also provides a great networking opportunity and can create possible synergies with side events and other activities in the margin of RevCon4.

Participants will be approved by the EEAS upon recommendation by UNODA, including its regional centres. In principle, selected officials from national authorities should be designated PoA national focal points. Other criteria for selection include gender considerations, timely submission of a national report, active participation in regional meetings and/or roundtable discussions.

Actions to strengthen civil society engagement in small arms control

Activities will include research and advocacy, media campaigns, sponsorship programmes and workshops. The activities will be carried out by the International Action Network on Small Arms (IANSA), in liaison/cooperation with UNODA and its regional centres, in support of civil society involvement at RevCon4.

3.1.3   Outputs

—   Four (4) virtual expert roundtables were organized in 2023

The roundtables provided action-oriented recommendations which States could consider including in the outcome document of RevCon4 in 2024. The key findings and recommendations of the roundtable discussions were collated into a single short paper and published ahead of RevCon4. The paper was made available in English and translated into Arabic, French, and Spanish.

—   Five (5) 2-day regional meetings were organized to support governments and organizations from specific regions in preparing for RevCon4

National reporting was included on the agenda of the regional meetings and assistance was made available to delegations wishing to prepare and/or submit their national reports during the meetings. Due to low reporting rates in the Asia and Pacific regions, a dedicated one-day national reporting clinic was conducted following the regional meeting, with a view to increase reporting rates in the region for RevCon4. The findings and recommendations from the expert roundtables (Activity 1.3.1) were presented and discussed at the meetings.

—   Fifteen (15) sponsored participants attended RevCon4

The travel to and accommodation at RevCon4 (not the Preparatory Committee earlier in 2024) for up to 15 participants was sponsored. In addition, travel was also sponsored for one participant from each regional centre (UNREC, UNLIREC, UNRCPD) to attend RevCon4 in New York.

3.2.2   Activities

Upgrade of the MOSAIC assessment tool (online and paper version) to enable States to carry out self-assessments on the implementation of the PoA/ITI

The MOSAIC assessment tool will enable States to (self-)evaluate the level of implementation of the PoA/ITI and other small arms control frameworks at the national level. It will assist States to identify gaps in their national small arms control systems and determine priority areas to be addressed to strengthen national capabilities and ensure the full and effective implementation of the PoA/ITI.

Findings of assessments can underpin the development of national and regional action plans, strategies, roadmaps and/or targets and ensure that they are based on the provisions agreed upon in key global SALW agreements. The MOSAIC assessment tool can also be used to support the collection and compilation of information to be included in national reports on the implementation of the PoA/ITI and facilitate the development of project proposals for fundraising purposes.

The MOSAIC assessment tool will facilitate national considerations of their small arms control systems against the areas covered by the MOSAIC modules contained in series 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6, therefore covering the full lifecycle of small arms, including on cross-cutting issues such as gender and youth. (15) In addition to its use by national authorities, it is envisaged that such a tool can also be used by a broader range of stakeholders, including regional organizations and civil society. It will directly benefit the work of UNODA’s regional centres and can be used during scoping missions under the Saving Lives Entity (SALIENT) (16). In order to ensure these entities can support national efforts to use the MOSAIC assessment tool, a User Guide will be developed and made available.

These activities will be implemented in collaboration with UNIDIR.

Support States to strengthen their implementation efforts of the PoA/ITI

In Latin America and the Caribbean implemented by UNLIREC

| — | Consolidation of a SALW Roadmap for Central American States (2022-2024), engaging all interested Sistema de la Integración Centroamericana (SICA) member states (Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama) to bolster implementation of international, regional and sub-regional SALW instruments and reduce the illicit proliferation of arms and ammunition in the sub-region. (17)

  Activities will consist of sub-regional seminars, workshops, work-sessions (drafting and thematic meetings). Central American States will be able to garner the political momentum in the run-up to RevCon4 to advance a new sub-regional initiative with clear objectives and indicators.
  The consolidation process of the Roadmap initiative will be undertaken in conjunction with the Department of Public Security of the Organization of American States (OAS) and complement activities outlined in EU COUNCIL DECISION (CFSP) 2022/847 of 30 May 2022. UNLIREC’s will be able to guide the process alongside OAS and build on its expertise under the Caribbean Firearms Roadmap. All activities will be coordinated with the sub-regional organization SICA. |

| — | Regional seminar on the universalization of the ATT in the Asia-Pacific region and the convergence with the WPS agenda - in 2013, States adopted the ATT, a multilateral treaty that specifically regulates the international trade in conventional weapons. The ATT is also the first legally binding weapon-related treaty that recognizes the link between the arms trade and gender-based violence (GBV). Implementing the ATT also enables States to fulfil their commitments on arms exports set out in the PoA in 2001. Accession to the ATT remains low in the Asia-Pacific, however, China’s and the Philippines’ recent accession has created a favourable political momentum in the region to promote the universalization of the Treaty. The workshop built on the engagement of civil society and parliamentarians under the previous project, in which the ATT was identified as a key priority area. The workshop will be implemented in collaboration with key partners, including UN agencies, regional and international organizations and civil society. It will be organized virtually. |

Regional seminar on the universalization of the ATT in the Asia-Pacific region and the convergence with the WPS agenda - in 2013, States adopted the ATT, a multilateral treaty that specifically regulates the international trade in conventional weapons. The ATT is also the first legally binding weapon-related treaty that recognizes the link between the arms trade and gender-based violence (GBV). Implementing the ATT also enables States to fulfil their commitments on arms exports set out in the PoA in 2001. Accession to the ATT remains low in the Asia-Pacific, however, China’s and the Philippines’ recent accession has created a favourable political momentum in the region to promote the universalization of the Treaty.
