Energy has been made more widely available in the countryside and on the outskirts of towns through the ACP–EU Energy Facility, and a new tranche of €200 million was made available for this in 2009.
Z energetskim skladom AKP-EU so na podeželju in na obrobjih mest energenti postali širše dostopni. V letu 2009 je bila v ta namen dana na voljo nova tranša v višini 200 milijonov EUR.
its move as an incentive to the authorities in Fiji to return to democracy and to restore respect for human rights and the rule of law.
EU želi s tem ukrepom spodbuditi fidžijske organe, da bi ponovno vzpostavili demokracijo in pravno državo ter zagotovili spoštovanje človekovih pravic.
However, humanitarian aid and direct support to civil society are not affected by the measures.
Navedeni ukrep pa ne velja za humanitarno pomoč in neposredno pomoč civilni družbi. Komisija je maja predlagala uvedbo
The €1 billion Food Facility, which came into effect in March (28), was the direct EU response to the global crisis in food prices.
Z instrumentom za hrano v višini 1 milijarde EUR, ki je začel veljati marca (28), se je EU neposredno odzvala na svetovno krizo, ki so jo povzročile cene hrane.
Hundreds of millions of people are at risk of extreme poverty and malnutrition because of the volatility of food prices, combined with the financial crisis, global population growth, competition for land, climate change and environmental deterioration.
Zaradi nihanj cen hrane v povezavi s finančno krizo, svetovno rastjo prebivalstva, tekmovanjem za rabo tal, podnebnimi spremembami in propadanjem okolja je več sto milijonov ljudi izpostavljenih tveganju skrajne revščine in podhranjenosti.
Over 2009–11, this new facility is assisting 50 developing countries, bridging the gap between emergency aid and longerterm cooperation.
V obdobju 2009–2011 ta novi instrument zagotavlja pomoč 50 državam v razvoju ter premošča vrzel med nujno pomočjo in dolgoročnejšim sodelovanjem.
The first financing decision in this framework was the Commission adoption in March of a €314 million package of projects to support agriculture and improve the food security situation in 23 developing countries across the globe.
Prvi sklep o financiranju v tem okviru je Komisija sprejela marca. Z njim je zagotovila 314 milijonov EUR za niz projektov, namenjenih pospeševanju kmetijstva in izboljšanju zanesljivosti preskrbe s hrano v 23 državah v razvoju po vsem svetu.
A second financing decision, in April, for €394 million, included programmes and projects worth €194 million in another 23 countries, and a €200 million call to national cooperation agencies and non-governmental organisations for proposals for activities in 35 countries.
Drugi sklep o financiranju, sprejet aprila, je zagotovil še 394 milijonov EUR, in sicer za financiranje programov in projektov v vrednosti 194 milijonov EUR v nadaljnjih 23 državah, preostalih 200 milijonov EUR pa je bilo dodeljenih za razpis, na katerem so lahko s predlogi dejavnosti kandidirale nacionalne agencije za sodelovanje in nevladne organizacije v 35 državah.
The new facility is encouraging the agricultural sector to produce, and it aims at strengthening its capacity and governance.
Novi instrument spodbuja kmetijski sektor k večji pridelavi ter krepi njegovo zmogljivost in upravljanje.
It has improved local access to fertilisers and seeds, and supplied on-the-spot microcredit, investment, equipment, infrastructure and storage.
Povečal je lokalni dostop do gnojil in semena, lokalno pa zagotavlja tudi mikroposojila, naložbe, opremo, infrastrukturo in skladiščenje.
It also provides vocational training for agricultural professionals.
Na voljo so tudi sredstva za poklicno usposabljanje kmetijskih strokovnjakov.
The Parliament had called in January for ‘immediate and continuous action’ to ensure global food security (29).
Parlament je januarja pozval k„takojšnjemu in stalnemu ukrepanju“, da se zagotovi zanesljiva preskrba s hrano na svetovni ravni (29).
It said the aid of €1 billion that the EU has decided to give to developing countries should be accompanied by fresh investment in agriculture and it called for mechanisms to be set up to ensure that sufficient global food stocks are available.
Poudaril je, da bi morale pomoč v višini 1 milijarde EUR, ki se jo je EU odločila nameniti državam v razvoju, spremljati nove naložbe v kmetijstvo, ter pozval k vzpostavitvi mehanizmov, ki bi zagotavljali zadostne zaloge hrane na svetovni ravni.
Complementary to the EU Food Facility, the 2009 annual action programme implementing the food security thematic programme was adopted by the Commission in May with funding of €217 million.
Kot dopolnilo instrumentu EU za hrano je Komisija maja sprejela letni program ukrepov za leto 2009 o izvajanju tematskega programa zanesljive preskrbe s hrano, za katerega je na voljo 217 milijonov EUR.
A project that started in March in Bangladesh rapidly created job opportunities for 78 000 men and women from vulnerable agricultural households.
Projekt, ki se je začel izvajati marca, je v Bangladešu hitro ustvaril delovna mesta za 78 000 moških in žensk iz ranljivih kmetijskih gospodinjstev.
They improved irrigation and built seed-beds and access roads.
Delavci so izboljšali namakalne sisteme, izdelali setvene grede in zgradili ceste do njih.
As a result, 60 000 people live in areas that are now protected from saltwater intrusion, and 43 000 have new fishing opportunities; 26 000 additional people can now reach markets and 7 000 children can get to school even during the flood season.
Tako zdaj 60 000 ljudi živi na območjih, zaščitenih pred vdori slane vode, 43 000 ljudi pa lahko izkorišča nove ribolovne možnosti. Nadaljnjih 26 000 ljudi ima zdaj dostop do tržnic, 7 000 otrok pa lahko pride v šolo tudi v času poplav.
Altogether, 4 000 m² of land around homesteads has been created for vegetable cultivation, and more than 8 000 people no longer fear having their home washed away every flood season.
Skupaj je bilo ustvarjenih 4 000 m² površin za gojenje zelenjave okoli kmetij, več kot 8 000 prebivalcem pa se vsako leto v obdobju poplav ni treba več bati, da jim bo dom odnesla voda.
As part of the EU’s approach to development, boosting trade is an important component in boosting prosperity of partner countries.
V okviru pristopa EU k razvoju je pospeševanje trgovine pomemben dejavnik povečevanja blaginje v partnerskih državah.
Since 2001, the EU has set a world lead by eliminating all duties and quotas for all products (except arms) originating from the world’s least-developed countries.
Od leta 2001 je EU prva na svetu odpravila vse dajatve in kvote za vse proizvode (razen orožja) iz najmanj razvitih držav sveta.
The economic partnership agreements that the EU has devised for five African and Pacific regions are a follow-up.
Temu so sledili sporazumi o gospodarskem partnerstvu, ki jih je EU oblikovala za pet afriških in pacifiških regij.
They are intended to be broad agreements, covering both trade and development.
Vsebinsko so to širši sporazumi, saj zajemajo tako trgovino kot razvoj.
They will help to build regional markets and strengthen and diversify economies that have been dependent for the last 30 years on the export of just a few basic commodities to Europe.
Pripomogli bodo k vzpostavljanju regionalnih trgov ter krepitvi in diverzifikaciji gospodarstev, ki so bila zadnjih 30 let odvisna od izvoza nekaj osnovnih surovin v Evropo.
The idea is to help the countries in these regions integrate with their neighbours as a step towards global integration.
Tako naj bi se države v teh regijah lažje povezale s sosednjimi državami, pozneje pa se vključile tudi v svetovno gospodarstvo.
EU MARKET MEETS AFRICAN MARKETS
DOSTOP DO TRGA EU IN ODPIRANJE AFRIŠKIH TRGOV
Interim agreements, mainly covering trade in goods, were signed in 2009 with Cameroon, with Botswana, Lesotho, Swaziland and Mozambique in the Southern African Development Community, Papua New Guinea, and Mauritius, Seychelles, Zimbabwe and Madagascar in the eastern and southern Africa region.
V letu 2009 so bili podpisani začasni sporazumi, ki večinoma urejajo trgovino z blagom, s Kamerunom, Bocvano, Lesotom, Svazijem in Mozambikom v Južnoafriški razvojni skupnosti, Papuo Novo Gvinejo, ter Mauritiusom, Sejšeli, Zimbabvejem in Madagaskarjem v vzhodni in južni Afriki.
Negotiations continued on comprehensive regional agreements in Africa and the Pacific, adapted to specific regional needs so as to conclude agreements tailor-made for each region.
Nadaljevala so se pogajanja o celovitih regionalnih sporazumih z afriškimi in pacifiškimi državami, ki so prilagojeni specifičnim potrebam posamezne regije.
For them to be successful, these agreements must be balanced to provide benefits to both sides, as the European Parliament insisted in February, when approving the conclusion by the EU of the first regional agreement, reached with the Caribbean (Cariforum) in 2008.
Da bi bili sporazumi uspešni, morajo uravnoteženo zagotavljati koristi obema stranema. Evropski parlament je februarja, ko je odobril sklenitev prvega regionalnega sporazuma med EU in karibskimi državami (Cariforum), doseženega leta 2008, odločno zagovarjal to stališče.
An interim economic partnership agreement signed in August between the EU and countries from the eastern and southern Africa regional grouping offers these countries immediate and full access to EU markets with transition periods for rice and sugar, together with improved rules of origin.
Avgusta podpisani začasni sporazum o gospodarskem partnerstvu med EU in državami regionalne skupine vzhodne in južne Afrike tem državam omogoča takojšen in popoln dostop do trgov EU s prehodnima obdobjema za riž in sladkor; izboljšana so tudi pravila o poreklu blaga.
In return, they will open their markets gradually over the next 15 years, with a number of important exceptions reflecting their development needs.
V zameno bodo te države v naslednjih 15 letih postopno odprle svoje trge, pri čemer bodo deležne vrste pomembnih izjem, ki upoštevajo njihove razvojne potrebe.
THE GROWTH IN GLOBAL TRADE
RAST SVETOVNE TRGOVINE
Annual change in % of the volume of all international trade in the world; 2009 and 2010 are forecasts
Letne spremembe obsega vse mednarodne trgovine na svetu (v odsotkih)Za leti 2009 in 2010 so navedene ocene zneskov.
The European Union is a major power in international commerce — it accounts for a fifth of global exports and imports.
Evropska unija je pomembna sila na področju mednarodne trgovine – njen izvoz in uvoz predstavljata petino svetovnega.
It relies on an effective system of world trade with open markets, both for the prosperity that its exports provide, and for sourcing its imports on the best prices and terms.
Blaginja, ki jo zagotavlja izvoz, ter usmerjanje uvoza glede na najboljše cene in pogoje temeljita na učinkovitem sistemu svetovne trgovine z odprtimi trgi.
OPEN MARKETS
ODPRTI TRGI
In 2009 the EU continued its efforts to extend markets and to keep them open.
V letu 2009 je Evropska unija nadaljevala svoja prizadevanja za razširitev trgov in ohranjanje njihove odprtosti.
In this way, EU trade policy helped to limit the scale of the downturn, and therefore the number of citizens who lose their jobs and become dependent on social policies.
Na ta način se je s pomočjo trgovinske politike Unije zajezil obseg gospodarskega upada, s tem pa tudi omejilo število državljanov, ki so izgubili službo in postali odvisni od socialnih politik.
Europe’s economic strength today, in a global marketplace, depends on its ability to remain globally competitive.
Gospodarska moč Evrope je v današnjih časih globalnega trga odvisna od sposobnosti, da ostane globalno konkurenčna.
Some two thirds of European imports are inputs to production processes that transform them into higher value added products, much of which are then in turn exported.
Približno dve tretjini evropskega uvoza predstavljajo surovine za proizvodne procese, v katerih se predelajo v proizvode z dodano vrednostjo. Večina teh se nato izvozi.
The EU needs to import in order to export.
Evropska unija mora uvažati, da lahko izvaža.
So the EU stepped up its action — supported by the 27 Member States — to ensure that its companies have fair access to other markets, which are often less open.
Zato je ob podpori svojih 27 članic pospešila svoje ukrepe, da bi svojim družbam zagotovila pravičen dostop do drugih trgov, ki so pogosto manj odprti.
The EU has focused new resources on better protection of intellectual property rights and fair access to raw materials.
Nove vire osredotoča na boljše varstvo pravic intelektualne lastnine in pravičen dostop do surovin.
TRADE WITH SOUTH KOREA
TRGOVINA Z JUŽNO KOREJO
As outlined in Chapter 1, the EU showed global leadership in its response to the global economic and financial crisis.
Kot je navedeno v 1. poglavju, je Evropska unija s svojim odgovorom na svetovno gospodarsko in finančno krizo pokazala svojo vodilno vlogo v svetu.
It argued consistently that sustainable recovery depends on the maintenance of open markets, based on international rules for free and fair trade.
Vztrajno je dokazovala, da je trajnostna oživitev odvisna od tega, da se ohranijo odprti trgi na podlagi mednarodnih pravil za prosto in pravično trgovino.
As worldwide trade volumes fell in the face of the economic crisis and the contraction of trade finance — the World Trade Organisation predicted a 10–12 % decline in 2009 — the EU battled against defensive tendencies to protect national trade interests.
Ko se je obseg trgovine na svetovni ravni zmanjšal zaradi gospodarske krize in zmanjševanja financiranja trgovine – Svetovna trgovinska organizacija je za leto 2009 napovedala zmanjšanje za 10–12 % – se je Unija borila proti obrambnim nagibom v obliki zaščite nacionalnih trgovinskih interesov.
If countries around the world erect new barriers to trade, it argued, global production chains could collapse, turning recession into depression.
Dokazovala je, da bi se lahko v primeru, ko bi države po svetu vzpostavile nove ovire trgovini, svetovne proizvodne verige sesule, zaradi česar bi se recesija prevesila v depresijo.
In October the EU and South Korea concluded negotiations on an ambitious free trade agreement.
Oktobra sta Evropska unija in Južna Koreja zaključili pogajanja o ambicioznem sporazumu o prosti trgovini.
The deal, estimated to be worth up to €19 billion in new trade for EU exporters, will remove virtually all tariffs between the two economies, as well as many non-tariff barriers.
S tem dogovorom, ki bi lahko po ocenah za izvoznike iz EU pomenil nove trgovinske posle v vrednosti do 19 milijard EUR, bodo odpravljene skoraj vse tarife med obema gospodarstvoma, pa tudi mnoge od netarifnih ovir.
It will create new market access in services and investment.
Omogočil bo dostop do novega trga storitev in nove naložbe.
The deal also makes major advances in areas such as intellectual property, procurement, competition policy and trade, and sustainable development.
Pomeni tudi velik napredek na področjih, kot so intelektualna lastnina, javno naročanje, politika konkurence, trgovina in trajnostni razvoj.
This will be a major boost for both economies.
To bo pomenilo veliko spodbudo za obe gospodarstvi.
The agreement now moves to the Council and European Parliament for ratification.
Sporazum bo predložen v potrditev Svetu in Evropskemu parlamentu.

To counter the threats to the international trading system, the Commission invested heavily and successfully in influencing the London G20 pledges, when world leaders agreed to base their trade policy on WTO rules and disciplines and the prospect of further liberalisation offered by the Doha Development Agenda.
V odgovor na grožnje mednarodnemu tržnemu sistemu je Komisija aktivno in uspešno vplivala na pozive skupine G-20 na srečanju v Londonu, ko so se svetovni voditelji dogovorili, da bo njihova trgovinska politika temeljila na pravilih in disciplinah STO ter možnostih nadaljnje liberalizacije na podlagi razvojne agende iz Dohe.
The EU also renewed its commitment to reinvigorating the Doha trade round as the best insurance policy against a new bout of protectionism, and it pushed for a swift and satisfactory outcome as the key to unlock new trade opportunities for all, and especially for developing countries.
Evropska unija je tudi obnovila svojo zavezo ponovni poživitvi kroga pogajanj v Dohi kot najboljšemu zavarovanju pred novim izbruhom protekcionizma, zavzemala pa se je tudi za hiter in ugoden izid, ki je ključnega pomena za sprostitev novih tržnih priložnosti za vse, zlasti države v razvoju.
EU efforts were instrumental in the informal WTO ministerial meeting in Delhi and the resumption of senior official meetings in Geneva in the autumn.
Prizadevanja Unije so bila zelo vidna na neformalni ministrski konferenci STO v Delhiju in ponovnem pričetku sestankov višjih uradnikov jeseni v Ženevi.
The notion of ‘fair trade’ is at the heart of all these efforts.
V središču teh prizadevanj je „pravična trgovina“.
Moreover, the European Commission addressed fair trade and non-governmental trade- related sustainability assurance schemes (30).
30 trajnosti v trgovini (
The Commission laid out new policy areas where fair trade and other schemes can contribute to European sustainable development objectives, and public procurement has also constituted a strategic market for fair trade products.
Komisija je zasnovala nova področja politik, na katerih lahko pravična trgovina in drugi sistemi prispevajo k evropskim ciljem zagotavljanja trajnosti, sistem javnih naročil pa tudi pomeni strateški trg za proizvode pravične trgovine.
Global economic powerhouses — China, India, South Korea, Russia and the United States — have figured prominently on the EU’s 2009 trade agenda.
Vodilne svetovne gospodarske sile – Kitajska, Indija, Južna Koreja, Rusija in Združene države – so imele pomembno vlogo v trgovinski agendi Evropske unije leta 2009.
TALKING WITH CHINA
POGOVORI S KITAJSKO
The aim of the talks with China during the year were to provide a forum for addressing trade issues before they become legal issues for the WTO.
Cilj letošnjih pogovorov s Kitajsko je bil zagotoviti forum za obravnavo trgovinskih vprašanj, preden postanejo pravna vprašanja za STO.
The outcomes have included a technology transfer agreement between a European telecommunications equipment manufacturer and its Chinese counterpart, and helping a major European cement manufacturer to resolve a trademark infringement.
Rezultat teh pogajanj je bil tudi sporazum o prenosu tehnologije med evropskim in kitajskim proizvajalcem telekomunikacijske opreme, pomembnemu evropskemu proizvajalcu cementa pa so omogočila, da je razrešil kršitev blagovne znamke.
The EU addressed the challenges — and opportunities — of consolidating relations with China, where the spectacular growth of recent years has led to dramatic increases in bilateral trade, making China the EU’s second largest trading partner after the USA and the Union’s biggest source of imports.
EU je obravnavala izzive – in priložnosti – utrditve odnosov s Kitajsko, ki je zaradi spektakularne rasti v zadnjih letih dramatično razširila dvostranske trgovinske odnose ter tako za ZDA postala drugi najpomembnejši trgovinski partner Evropske unije in največja izvoznica v Unijo.
But preliminary data suggest that EU–China trade decreased in 2009 from its 2008 level of €326 billion — partly due to the economic downturn, but also due to barriers that EU businesses encounter when they try to access the Chinese market.
Iz predhodnih podatkov pa je razvidno, da se je trgovina med Evropsko unijo in Kitajsko leta 2009 zmanjšala v primerjavi z letom 2008, ko je znašala 326 milijard EUR, deloma zaradi gospodarske recesije, pa tudi zaradi ovir, s katerimi se evropska podjetja soočajo pri dostopu na kitajski trg.
The EU called on China to reduce its trade barriers, which often contravene WTO rules.
Evropska unija je Kitajsko pozvala, naj zmanjša trgovinske ovire, ki so pogosto v nasprotju s pravili STO.
The EU–China High–Level Economic and Trade Dialogue in May, which focused on improving business opportunities in times of crisis and on open trade and investment as a catalyst for economic revival, led to agreements on closer economic cooperation and on the need to make progress in the Doha trade talks.
Gospodarski in trgovinski dialog na visoki ravni med Unijo in Kitajsko v mesecu maju, ki je bil osredotočen na izboljšanje poslovnih priložnosti v času krize ter prosto trgovino in naložbe kot gonilo oživljanja gospodarstva, je vodil k sporazumom o tesnejšem gospodarskem sodelovanju ter potrebi po večjem napredku pri krogu pogajanj v Dohi.
Textiles have helped make China the EU’s biggest source of imports; removing the barriers that EU businesses encounter when they try to access the Chinese market has been high on the agenda of EU-China relations during the year.
Tekstilni izdelki so pripomogli, da je postala Kitajska največja izvoznica v EU; odstranitev ovir, s katerimi se evropska podjetja soočajo pri dostopu na kitajski trg, je bila med letom pomembna točka pogovorov med EU in Kitajsko.
During the year, an EU–China action plan on the customs enforcement of intellectual property rights was signed.
V tem letu je bil podpisan akcijski načrt med Evropsko unijo in Kitajsko o uveljavljanju pravic intelektualne lastnine s strani carinskih organov.
Its principal goal is to improve control and prevention of the exports of fake products from China, further reinforcing the protection of EU firms’ intellectual property rights.
Njegov glavni namen so izboljšanje nadzora in preprečevanje izvoza ponaredkov s Kitajske ter nadaljnje povečanje varstva pravic intelektualne lastnine evropskih družb.
The EU also signed a cooperation agreement designed to better target customs controls in the fight against illicit imports, since China is reported as the main producer of precursors.
Unija je podpisala tudi sporazum o sodelovanju, da bi izboljšala carinski nadzor pri boju proti nelegalnemu uvozu, saj je Kitajska glavna proizvajalka predhodnih sestavin.
The Gulf Cooperation Council and the EU reviewed their recent consultations on a free trade agreement, with plans to resume discussions.
Svet za sodelovanje v Zalivu in Evropska unija sta pregledala svoja nedavna posvetovanja o prosti trgovini z namenom, da ponovno pričneta pogovore.
In March, the European Parliament encouraged accelerated negotiations on an EU–India free trade agreement, which has been slated for signature by the end of 2010.
Marca je Evropski parlament spodbujal pospešena pogajanja o sporazumu o prosti trgovini med EU in Indijo, ki naj bi bil podpisan do konca leta 2010.

European Commission President José Manuel Barroso makes his point alongside Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin at a meeting in Moscow.
Predsednik Evropske komisije José Manuel Barroso izraža svoje stališče ob ruskem predsedniku vlade Vladimirju Putinu na srečanju v Moskvi.
The EU is Russia’s main trading partner and largest source of foreign direct investment, while Russia is the Union’s third largest trading partner.
Evropska unija je glavni trgovinski partner Rusije in njen največji vir tujih neposrednih naložb, Rusija pa je tretji največji trgovinski partner Unije.
The importance of the relationship was shown in February, when Commission President José Manuel Barroso led nine other Members of the Commission to Moscow to meet the Russian President, Prime Minister and members of the government to set out the strategic direction for EU–Russia relations in the coming years.
Kako pomembni so ti odnosi, je bilo razvidno februarja, ko so se predsednik Komisije José Manuel Barroso in devet drugih članov Komisije v Moskvi sestali z ruskim predsednikom ter predsednikom in člani vlade, da bi določili strateško usmeritev odnosov med Evropsko unijo in Rusijo v naslednjih letih.
