COUNCIL REGULATION

Regulation (EC) No 798/2004 

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION, 

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Articles 
60 and 301 thereof, 

Having regard to Council Common Position 2006/…/CFSP renewing restrictive measures in 
respect of Burma/Myanmar1, 

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission2, 

Whereas: 

(1) 

On  28  October  1996,  the  Council,  concerned  at  the  absence  of  progress  towards 
democratisation and at  the continuing  violation of human rights in Burma/Myanmar, 
imposed  certain  restrictive  measures  against  Burma/Myanmar  by  Common  Position 
1996/653/CFSP3.  These  measures  were  subsequently  extended  and  amended  by 
Common Position 2000/346/CFSP4 and Common Position 2003/297/CFSP5, and then 
renewed  by  Common  Position  2004/423/CFSP6,  strengthened  by  Common  Position 
2004/730/CFSP7,  amended  by  Common  Position  2005/149/CFSP8  and  extended  and 
amended  by  Common  Position  2005/340/CFSP9.  Some  of  the  restrictive  measures 
imposed against Burma/Myanmar were implemented at Community level by Council 
Regulation (EC) No 798/200410.  

(2) 

In view of the current political situation in Burma/Myanmar, as witnessed by: 

–  the failure of the military authorities to enter into substantive discussions with the 
democratic  movement  concerning  a  process  leading  to  national  reconciliation, 
respect for human rights and democracy;

–  the failure to allow a genuine and open National Convention; 

–  the  continuing  detention  of  Daw  Aung  San  Suu  Kyi,  other  members  of  the 

National League for Democracy (NLD) and other political detainees; 

–  the continued harassment of the NLD and other organised political movements;  

–  the  continuing  serious  violations  of  human  rights,  including  the  failure  to  take 
the 
action 
recommendations  of  the  International  Labour  Organisation's  High-Level  Team 
report of 2001 and recommendations and proposals of subsequent ILO missions; 

in  accordance  with 

the  use  of  forced 

to  eradicate 

labour 

–  and  recent  developments  such  as  increasing  restrictions  on  the  operation  of 

international organisations and non-governmental organisations, 

Common  Position  2006/…/CFSP  provides  for  the  maintenance  of  the  restrictive  measures 
against the military regime in Burma/Myanmar, those who benefit most from its misrule, and 
those  who  actively  frustrate  the  process  of  national  reconciliation,  respect  for  human  rights 
and democracy.

(6) 

The  restrictive  measures  provided  for  by  Common  Position  2006/…/CFSP  include 
inter  alia  a  ban  on  technical  assistance,  financing  and  financial  assistance  related  to 
military activities, a ban on the export of equipment which might be used for internal 
repression,  the  freezing  of  funds  and  economic  resources  of  members  of  the 
Government of Burma/Myanmar and of any natural or legal persons, entities or bodies 
associated with them, and a prohibition on making financial loans or credits available 
to, and on acquiring or extending a participation in, Burmese state-owned enterprises. 

These measures fall within the scope of the Treaty and, therefore, notably with a view 
to  ensuring  their  uniform  application  by  economic  operators  in  all  Member  States, 
Community  legislation  is  necessary  to  implement  them  as  far  as  the  Community  is 
concerned. 

For  the  sake  of  clarity,  a  new  text  containing  all  the  relevant  provisions  as  amended 
should be adopted, replacing Regulation (EC) No 798/2004, which should be repealed. 

In order to ensure that the measures provided for in this Regulation are effective, this 
Regulation should enter into force on the day of its publication,
