COUNCIL DECISION
of 14 February 2012
on the position to be taken by the European Union within the General Council of the World Trade Organization on the request for a WTO waiver on additional autonomous trade preferences granted by the European Union to Pakistan
(2012/114/EU)
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular the first subparagraph of Article 207(4) in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
The Union is currently in the process of adopting legislation for granting additional autonomous trade preferences to Pakistan. In the absence of a waiver from the Union’s obligations under paragraph 1 of Article I and Article XIII of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade 1994 (GATT 1994), to the extent necessary, the treatment provided by those additional autonomous trade preferences would need to be extended to all other Members of the World Trade Organization (WTO). It is therefore appropriate to request a waiver from paragraph 1 of Article I and Article XIII GATT 1994, to the extent necessary, pursuant to paragraph 3 of Article IX of the Marrakesh Agreement establishing the World Trade Organization.
(2)
The Union submitted such a request for a waiver on 18 November 2010, and subsequently revised it on 26 October 2011 and 19 January 2012, and the WTO General Council is to deliberate thereon.
(3)
It is appropriate, therefore, to establish the position to be taken by the Union within the WTO General Council concerning that request,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The position to be taken by the European Union within the General Council of the World Trade Organization is to approve the WTO waiver on additional autonomous trade preferences granted by the European Union to Pakistan.
This position shall be expressed by the Commission.
Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the date of its adoption.

Having regard to Council Regulation (EC) No 423/2007 of 19 April 2007 (1), and in particular Article 15(2) thereof,
Whereas:

On 19 April 2007, the Council adopted Regulation (EC) No 423/2007. Article 15(2) of that Regulation provides that the Council shall establish, review and amend the list of persons, entities and bodies referred to in Article 7(2) of that Regulation.
(2)
The Council has determined that certain additional persons, entities and bodies fulfil the conditions laid down in Article 7(2) of Regulation (EC) No 423/2007 and that they should therefore be listed in Annex V of that Regulation for the individual and specific reasons given.
(3)
The obligation to freeze economic resources of designated entities of the Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Lines (IRISL) does not require the impounding or detention of vessels owned by such entities or the cargoes carried by them insofar as such cargoes belong to third parties, nor does it require the detention of the crew contracted by them,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The persons, entities and bodies mentioned in the Annex to this Regulation shall be added to the list set out in Annex V of Regulation (EC) No 423/2007.

COUNCIL DECISION 2012/123/CFSP
of 27 February 2012
amending Decision 2011/523/EU partially suspending the application of the Cooperation Agreement between the European Economic Community and the Syrian Arab Republic
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 207 in conjunction with Article 218(9) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Whereas:
(1)
On 18 January 1977, the European Economic Community and the Syrian Arab Republic concluded a Cooperation Agreement (1) (‘the Cooperation Agreement’) to promote overall cooperation with a view to strengthening relations between them.
(2)
On 2 September 2011, the Council adopted Decision 2011/523/EU (2) which partially suspends the application of the Cooperation Agreement until the Syrian authorities put an end to the systematic violations of human rights and can again be considered as being in compliance with general international law and the principles which form the basis of the Cooperation Agreement.
(3)
Since then, and in view of the further deterioration of the situation in Syria, the Union has adopted further restrictive measures against the Syrian regime (3).
(4)
In this regard, the partial suspension of the application of the Cooperation Agreement should continue. In line with the approach set out in Decision 2011/523/EU, the suspension should aim at targeting the Syrian authorities, not the people of Syria, and should be limited accordingly. Since gold, precious metals and diamonds are products the trade in which benefits in particular the Syrian regime, and which therefore supports its repressive policies, the suspension should be extended so as to apply also to trade in these materials,
HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
Article 1
The measures listed in the Annex to this Decision shall be added to the Annex to Decision 2011/523/EU.
Article 2
This Decision shall be notified to the Syrian Arab Republic.
Article 3
This Decision shall enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
