THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 37 thereof, in conjunction with Article 218(5) and                           (6) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,                        

Having regard to the proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy,

Whereas:

(1)Conditions regarding the participation of third States in European Union crisis management operations should be laid down                              in an agreement establishing a framework for such possible future participation, rather than being defined on a case-by-case                              basis for each operation concerned.

(2)Following the adoption of a Decision by the Council on 13 November 2012 authorising the opening of negotiations, the High                              Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy negotiated an agreement between the European Union and                              Georgia establishing a framework for the participation of Georgia in European Union crisis management operations (‘the Agreement’).

(3)The Agreement should be approved,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
