I. whereas the GCC member states’ geo-economic shift of focus towards Asia – in response to the rising demand for oil on Asian markets (in China, India, Singapore, Japan, the Philippines and South Korea) – is currently producing a diversification of commercial and economic relations, backed up by free trade agreements and the development of political dialogue,

Trgovinski odnosi
Trade relations
26. meni, da bi bilo treba glede na strateški pomen regije sporazum o prosti trgovini obravnavati ne le kot instrument za povečanje blaginje s pomočjo trgovine, temveč tudi kot orodje za spodbujanje geopolitične stabilnosti;
Considers that, given the region’s strategic importance, the FTA should be seen not only as an instrument to enhance welfare through trade, but also as a tool to foster geopolitical stability;
31. poudarja, da bi pomanjkanje preglednosti pri postopkih oddaje javnih naročil in ovire za sodelovanje tujih vlagateljev v sektorju storitev utegnile ogroziti sklenitev sporazuma, če se ne bo ukrepalo;

Welcomes the Al-Jisr project on EU-GCC Public Diplomacy and Outreach Activities which, with the Commission’s support, has proven to be immensely beneficial; encourages, in this connection, the High Representative/Vice-President’s staff to consider expanding public diplomacy activities in a region where the EU is still not clearly understood and mechanisms to overcome this deficit are limited; stresses the importance of developing a better communication strategy, including the need to explain EU policies and positions in Arabic, with a view to reaching a wider audience in the region;

Za strateško partnerstvo Evropske unije s Svetom za sodelovanje v Zalivu in njegovimi državami članicami
For an EU strategic partnership with the GCC and its member states
Evropska unija in Svet za sodelovanje v Zalivu se že dvajset let pogajata o sporazumu o prosti trgovini.
The EU and the GCC have been negotiating a free trade agreement for some 20 years.
To so najstarejša trgovinska pogajanja, ki jih je začela Evropska unija in jih doslej še ni končala.
These are the longest-running non-concluded trade negotiations that the EU has undertaken.
V dvajsetih letih se je okvir, v katerem potekajo, korenito spremenil.
In the course of 20 years, however, the context of the negotiations has changed profoundly.
Geopolitično okolje Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu je zaznamoval pojav niza varnostnih vprašanj svetovnih in regionalnih razsežnosti (Irak, Iran, Jemen, islamski terorizem, piratstvo).
The GCC’s geopolitical environment is characterised by the emergence of a series of security challenges with global and regional implications (i.e. Iraq, Iran, Yemen, Islamist terrorism and piracy).
V gospodarstvih držav članic Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu, ki so vključena v svetovna dogajanja, potekajo liberalizacija, povečevanje raznolikosti njihove gospodarske strukture in širitev kroga trgovinskih partnerjev – tako je postala v letu 2010 najpomembnejša zalivska trgovinska partnerica Azija.
The economies of the GCC member states, which are part of the global economic fabric, are undergoing liberalisation and structural diversification and their range of trading partners is broadening; in 2010, Asia became the lead trading partner of the Gulf region.
Poleg tega države Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu razpolagajo z veliko finančno zmogljivostjo v obliki državnih premoženjskih skladov, katerih vrednost je v letu 2009 znašala več kot 1380 milijard dolarjev oziroma več kot 35 % skupne svetovne vrednosti
The GCC member states have substantial financial clout in the form of sovereign wealth funds, which in 2009 were worth USD 1380 billion – more than 35% of the world total
Države članice Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu, ki so postale gospodarsko gonilo celotne bližnjevzhodne in severnoafriške regije, se ponašajo z več kot 40 % nacionalnega bogastva, proizvedenega na tem območju, v njihovi lasti pa je tudi 50 % oziroma 1070 milijard dolarjev uradnih deviznih rezerv.
As the current economic powerhouse for the entire Middle East and North Africa, the GCC member states account for more than 40% of the national wealth generated in that region and hold 50% of its official currency reserves, i.e. USD 1070 billion.
Nenazadnje pa so danes tudi glavne vlagateljice v južne sredozemske sosede EU.
Moreover, they are currently the main investors in the EU’s southern Mediterranean neighbourhood.
To dejavno mednarodno delovanje ni omejeno le na trgovski, finančni in energetski vidik.
This active internationalism is not confined to the fields of trade, finance and energy.
Sega tudi na področje diplomacije z vse številnejšimi posredovanji, zlasti Katarja in Savdske Arabije na Bližnjem vzhodu in v Afriki, ter spodbujanjem pobud za dialog, s katerim naj bi zagotovili kulturno zbliževanje in vzajemno razumevanje.
It is also apparent in the diplomatic arena, with a growing number of mediation efforts, particularly by Qatar and Saudi Arabia, in the Middle East and Africa, and encouragement for initiatives involving dialogue on developing cultural contact and on mutual understanding.
Poleg tega se znotraj držav Sveta za sodelovanje v Zalivu v zadnjih nekaj letih porajajo novi procesi politične in družbene modernizacije, ki sicer potekajo z različnimi hitrostmi, vendar vse odlikuje notranja dinamika, ki jo je treba podpreti in spodbujati.
At domestic level, too, the GCC countries have, for some years now, been experiencing new processes of political and social modernisation and, while the pace differs from country to country, these represent home-grown forces that ought to be supported and encouraged.
