When dealing with partner countries, the Commission adopts three main identities – political player, development agency and donor administration – and is continuously seeking ways in which it can more effectively combine these three.
Odnosi Unije z dvema glavnima državama v regiji, Kitajsko in Indijo, se razvijajo v okviru strateških partnerstev. Obseg teh partnerstev je velik in zajema gospodarsko sodelovanje ter politične vidike.
The European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) also gathered pace.
Pospešeno se je začela izvajati tudi evropska sosedska politika.
The ENP is amongst the top priorities of the EU’s external relations.
Evropska sosedska politika se uvršča med najpomembnejše prednostne naloge zunanjih odnosov EU.
Through this policy, the EU seeks to promote good governance and economic development in its vicinity.
S to politiko si EU prizadeva spodbujati dobro upravljanje in gospodarski razvoj v svoji bližini.
During the first eighteen months of its implementation, the policy has laid a substantial foundation for strengthened relations between the Union and its neighbours.
V prvih osemnajstih mesecih izvajanja te politike je EU postavila pomemben temelj za krepitev svojih odnosov s sosedami.
On 4 December 2006, the Commission set out new proposals to strengthen and develop the ENP further.
Komisija je 4. decembra 2006 predstavila nove predloge za nadaljnjo krepitev in razvoj evropske sosedske politike.
These foresee offering partner countries improved trade and investment prospects, making people-to-people contacts and legitimate short-term travel easier, being more active in addressing frozen conflicts, and opening more possibilities for mobilising funding.
Predvidevajo, da se bodo državam partnericam zagotovile boljše trgovinske in naložbene možnosti, da se bodo olajšali neposredni osebni stiki in zakonita kratkotrajna potovanja, dejavnejše obravnavali zamrznjeni spori in odprlo več možnosti za zbiranje finančnih sredstev.

Boljši okvir za zunanjo pomoč – poenostavitev in pojasnitev predpisov
External assistance policies have been integrated into the drafting of new instruments which form part of a complete overhaul of the structure of EU external co-operation.
Politike zunanje pomoči so bile vključene v pripravo novih instrumentov, ki tvorijo del temeljitega pregleda strukture zunanjega sodelovanja EU.
In 2006 these new instruments, setting out a simpli-fi fied framework for delivering assistance during the period 2007-2013, were f i finalised.
V letu 2006 so bili dokončani ti novi instrumenti, ki določajo poenostavljen okvir za zagotavljanje pomoči v obdobju 2007–2013.
They provide a consistent basis for action, bringing together clear policy objectives with the procedures and instruments needed to achieve them.
Zagotavljajo stalno podlago za ukrepanje, saj združujejo jasne cilje politike ter postopke in instrumente, potrebne za njihovo doseganje.
Nine financing instruments replace the existing range of geographical and thematic regulations.
Devet finančnih instrumentov nadomešča obstoječi razpon geografskih in tematskih predpisov.
Six instruments will support specific policies with a geographical or thematic focus:
Šest instrumentov bo podpiralo posebne geografsko ali tematsko usmerjene politike:
■the Instrument for Pre-accession Assistance (IPA);
■instrument za predpristopno pomoč (IPA);
■the European Neighbourhood and Partnership Instrument (ENPI);
■evropski sosedski in partnerski instrument (ENPI);
■the Instrument for Development Cooperation (DCI);
■instrument za razvojno sodelovanje (DCI);
Through its enlargement policy and the Stabilisation and Association Process, the EU assists countries with a perspective of membership to integrate into the Union gradually.
S politiko širitve in stabilizacijsko-pridružitvenim procesom EU pomaga državam, ki imajo možnost članstva, da se postopoma vključujejo v Unijo.
In 2006, this policy covered Bulgaria, Romania, the Western Balkan countries and Turkey.
V letu 2006 je ta politika zajemala Bolgarijo, Romunijo, države zahodnega Balkana in Turčijo.
Bulgaria and Romania joined the Union on 1 January 2007.
Bolgarija in Romunija sta se Uniji pridružili 1. januarja 2007.
Accession negotiations have been ongoing with Croatia and Turkey, while the other Western Balkan countries all made progress along the “road map” set out within the Stabilisation and Association process.
Medtem ko pristopna pogajanja s Hrvaško in Turčijo še potekajo, so vse druge države zahodnega Balkana dosegle napredek v skladu s časovnim načrtom, določenim v okviru stabilizacijsko-pridružitvenega procesa.
In 2006, the Commission established firm measures to reinforce the EU policy for the Western Balkans and its instruments, in particular for rendering the EU perspective more tangible to the citizens of that region.
Komisija je leta 2006 določila stroge ukrepe za okrepitev politike EU za zahodni Balkan in njenih instrumentov, predvsem da se državljanom te regije zagotovi jasnejša perspektiva EU.
■the European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR);
■evropski instrument za demokracijo in človekove pravice (EIDHR);
■the Instrument for Nuclear Safety Cooperation (INSC).
■instrument za sodelovanje na področju jedrske varnosti (INSC).
Three instruments will address crisis situations:
Trije instrumenti se bodo nanašali na krizne situacije:
■existing humanitarian aid, which will incorporate emergency food aid under the new financial perspectives;
■obstoječa humanitarna pomoč, ki bo vključevala nujno pomoč v hrani v skladu z novim finančnim načrtom;
■the macro-financial assistance instruments.
■instrumenti makrofinančne pomoči.
Cooperation will be implemented through country, regional and thematic strategy papers and multi-annual indicative programmes, as well as annual action programmes, which are subject to the new democratic scrutiny procedure established under the Inter-institutional Agreement.
Sodelovanje se bo izvajalo prek državnih, regionalnih in tematskih strateških dokumentov in večletnih usmeritvenih programov ter letnih akcijskih programov, ki so predmet novega postopka demokratičnega nadzora, vzpostavljenega v skladu z medinstitucionalnim sporazumom.
This procedure foresees that the Commission will systematically inform and consult the European Parliament and the Council by sending draft strategy papers.
Ta postopek predvideva, da bo Komisija sistematično obveščala Evropski parlament in Svet ter se z njima posvetovala, tako da bo pošiljala osnutke strateških dokumentov.
The Commission has undertaken to enter into a regular dialogue with the European Parliament on these strategy papers and to take due account of the position of the European Parliament when implementing strategies.
Komisija se je zavezala, da bo glede teh strateških dokumentov vzpostavila redni dialog z Evropskim parlamentom in da bo pri izvajanju strategij ustrezno upoštevala njegova stališča.
The funds available under the Instrument for Development Cooperation (DCI) amount to € 10.1 billion for developing countries from Latin America, Asia and the Middle East, and for South Africa.
Sredstva, ki so na voljo v okviru instrumenta za razvojno sodelovanje (DCI), znašajo 10,1 milijarde EUR za države v razvoju iz Latinske Amerike, Azije in Bližnjega vzhoda ter za Južno Afriko.
Apart from geographical co-operation, the DCI also contains thematic programmes which replace the existing thematic regulations.
Razen geografskega sodelovanja vsebuje instrument za razvojno sodelovanje tudi tematske programe, ki nadomeščajo obstoječe tematske predpise.
a better framework for external assistance – simplifying and clarifying regulations
boljši okvir za zunanjo pomoč – poenostavitev in pojasnitev predpisov
This Communication defines a long-term and in-depth process increasing the impact of EU actions in favour of children. It also proposes new mechanisms to ensure internal co-ordination and consultation (such as a European Forum for the Rights of the Child) and includes prescriptions for the effective participation of children themselves.
Za obdobje 2007–2013 znaša predvideni proračun za sosednje države v okviru evropskega sosedskega in partnerskega instrumenta približno 12 milijard EUR, kar je realno 32 % več kot v prejšnjem proračunskem obdobju.
One of the commitments of the Communication is to develop an Action Plan on Children in Development Co-operation.
Da bi se učinek in finančni vzvod teh sredstev EU čimbolj povečal, je Komisija predlagala, da se v okviru evropskega sosedskega in partnerskega instrumenta vzpostavita dva nova mehanizma, in sicer:
In January 2006, the Commission adopted a Communication entitled “Investing in People”4 on the thematic programme for human and social development.
Januarja 2006 je Komisija sprejela sporočilo z naslovom „Vlaganje v ljudi“4 o tematskem programu za človeški in socialni razvoj.
The DCI will provide just over € 1 billion for this programme to support actions in areas that directly affect people’s living standards and wellbeing, with a focus on the poorest and least developed countries and the most disadvantaged sections of the population.
Instrument za razvojno sodelovanje bo temu programu namenil nekaj več kot milijardo EUR za podporo ukrepom na področjih, ki neposredno vplivajo na življenjski standard in blaginjo ljudi, s poudarkom na najrevnejših in najmanj razvitih državah ter najbolj prikrajšanih delih prebivalstva.
On this basis, a strategy to support activities under four main pillars – Good Health for All, Education, Knowledge and Skills, Gender Equality and Other Aspects of Social and Human Development (including social cohesion, employment, decent work, children and youth, and culture) – has been prepared.
Na tej podlagi je bila pripravljena strategija za podporo dejavnostim v skladu s štirimi glavnimi stebri – zdravje za vse, izobrazba, znanje in spretnosti, enakost spolov in drugi vidiki socialnega in človeškega razvoja (vključno s socialno kohezijo, zaposlovanjem, dostojnim delom, otroki in mladino ter kulturo).
This is a good example of the integrated approach the Commission seeks to promote.
To je dober primer celovitega pristopa, ki si ga Komisija prizadeva spodbujati.
• a Neighbourhood Investment Fund, to which Member States will also be invited to contribute and which will be used to leverage additional lending from the European Investment Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, and other development banks.
• investicijski sklad za sosednje države, v katerega bodo države članice na povabilo tudi prispevale in ki se bo uporabljal za pridobivanje dodatnih posojil Evropske investicijske banke, Evropske banke za obnovo in razvoj ter drugih razvojnih bank.
The contribution from the budget would be € 700 million.
Prispevki iz proračuna naj bi znašali 700 milijonov EUR.
It is estimated that this fund could encourage lending of several times the amount of grant funding.
Ocenjuje se, da bi se v okviru tega sklada lahko spodbujalo dajanje posojil v večkratnem znesku subvencij.
If Member States were to match the Commission contribution, the Fund could generate a considerable amount of concessional lending;
Če bi bil prispevek držav članic v sklad enak kot prispevek Komisije, bi lahko zagotavljal precejšen znesek ugodnih posojil;
The protection of children and young people, and promotion of the participation of children and young people in development, are priority areas to be addressed in the DCI thematic programme “Investing in People”, as well as the new instrument for democracy and human rights.
Zaščita otrok in mladine ter spodbujanje udeležbe otrok in mladine pri razvoju so prednostna področja, ki jih mora obravnavati tematski program instrumenta za razvojno sodelovanje z naslovom „Vlaganje v ljudi“ ter novi instrument za demokracijo in človekove pravice.
Until the new simplified instruments were introduced, the Commission used around 75 different instruments related to children policies and programmes, both within and outside the borders of the EU.
Do uveljavitve novih poenostavljenih instrumentov je Komisija uporabljala približno 75 različnih instrumentov, ki so se nanašali na otroške politike in programe, znotraj in zunaj meja EU.
In order to improve coherence, maximise synergies, explore gaps and increase the instruments’ collective impact in improving the rights of children, the Commission adopted the Communication “Towards a strategy on the rights of the child” on 4 July 2006.
Komisija je zaradi izboljšanja skladnosti, zagotavljanja največje možne sinergije, raziskovanja vrzeli in povečanja skupnega učinka instrumentov pri izboljševanju pravic otrok 4. julija 2006 sprejela sporočilo z naslovom „K strategiji za otrokove pravice“.
• a Governance Facility of € 300 million to provide additional support, on top of normal country allocations, to acknowledge and support the work of partner countries that have made most progress in implementing their Action Plans.
Evropski sosedski in partnerski instrument ima tudi posebno komponento čezmejnega sodelovanja, ki ga sofinancira Sklad za regionalni razvoj. Nove določbe so zasnovane tako, da odpravljajo nekdanje pomanjkljivosti ter naredijo tovrstno sodelovanje lažje in učinkovitejše.
The ENPI also has a specific cross-border cooperation component, co- f i financed by the European Regional Development Fund.
To sporočilo opredeljuje dolgoročen in poglobljen proces, ki bo povečal učinek ukrepov EU v korist otrok.
The new provisions have been designed to address past shortcomings and to make this type of cooperation easier and more effective. ective.
S formalnim začetkom veljavnosti vseh instrumentov se bo dialog glede teh strategij nadaljeval v letu 2007 z demokratičnim nadzorom Evropskega parlamenta. Zbirka podrobnih sporočil, ki določajo pristop in vsebino vseh tematskih

A better framework for working together: aid effectiveness ectiveness
Boljši okvir za sodelovanje: učinkovitost pomoči
The programming for Asian, Latin American and neighbouring countries was almost completed and an informal dialogue between institutions was launched on ENPI and DCI draft strategies, following political agreement on the instruments, so as to slow down the delivery of assistance in 2007 as little as possible.
Sodelovanje z afriškimi, karibskimi in pacifiškimi državami se še vedno fi -nancira iz sredstev Evropskega razvojnega sklada (ERS), saj je Evropski svet decembra 2005 sprejel odločitev, da je treba ERS še naprej financirati ločeno od proračuna.
This was followed by a detailed programming process for each thematic programme, a process that will be completed in early-2007 to allow implementation soon thereafter.
ERS (2008–2013) podlago za sodelovanje z državami AKP.
Aid effectiveness is at the forefront of the EU’s political agenda and features in all its initiatives in 2006.
Učinkovitost pomoči je v ospredju politične agende EU in se pojavlja v vseh njenih pobudah v letu 2006.
Both the Joint Development Policy Statement and the New Africa Strategy emphasise the importance of delivering not just more aid, but better, more effective European aid.
V skupni izjavi o razvojni politiki in Novi strategiji za Afriko je poudarjen pomen zagotavljanja ne le večjega zneska pomoči, temveč boljše, učinkovitejše evropske pomoči.
The 10th EDF agreement also contains a clear statement in support of aid effectiveness. ectiveness.
Sporazum o 10. ERS vsebuje tudi jasno izjavo v podporo učinkovitosti pomoči.
With € 22.7 billion worth of funding, the 10th EDF (2008-2013) sets the basis for cooperation with the ACP countries.
Programski dialog poteka in se mora zaključiti z državnimi in regionalnimi strategijami, ki bodo nared za podpis pred koncem leta 2007, tako da se bo izvajanje začelo januarja 2008.
In order to translate these commitments into deeds, an Action Plan (“EUaid: delivering more, faster and better”) was approved in April 2006, with a comprehensive list of nine tangible deliverables to be implemented by 2010.
Da se te zaveze pretvorijo v dejanja, se je aprila 2006 odobril akcijski načrt („Pomoč EU: nuditi več, hitreje in bolje“), skupaj s podrobnim seznamom devetih oprijemljivih rezultatov, ki jih je treba doseči do leta 2010.
These include the regular mapping of EU aid at global, regional and local levels (the Donor Atlas5), as well as a proposal for an EU Joint Programming Framework (JPF).
Slednji vključujejo redno geografsko načrtovanje pomoči EU na globalni, regionalni in lokalni ravni (atlas donatorjev)5 in predlog za skupni programski okvir.
Today, the Donor Atlas has become a useful tool for both monitoring aid and enhancing EU aid co-ordination and division of labour, while the JPF is being introduced in a number of countries in the ongoing programming of the 10th EDF.
Atlas donatorjev je danes koristno orodje za spremljanje pomoči in izboljšanje usklajevanja pomoči EU ter razdelitve dela, skupni programski okvir pa se uvaja v številnih državah pri tekočem načrtovanju programov 10. ERS.
Programming guidelines for the 10th EDF have been prepared on the basis of the Consensus, including the definition of areas of Community action and the principle of concentration at country level. Programming with the ACP countries was launched early in the year.
Prekomerna drobitev razvojne pomoči mednarodne skupnosti je privedla do razpršitve, podvojitve in celo nasprotij med dejavnostmi pomoči, zmanjševanja morebitnega učinka zaradi kopičenja nepotrebnih stroškov in večanja bremena za države partnerice.
The EU Donor Atlas illustrates these gaps and duplications.
Atlas donatorjev EU ponazarja te vrzeli in podvojitve.
Greater complementarity of activities is a key factor in increasing aid effectiveness.
Ključnega pomena pri povečevanju učinkovitosti pomoči je večja komplementarnost dejavnosti.
In 2006 aid effectiveness guidelines were adopted and training courses provided both at Headquarters and around the world.
V letu 2006 so bile sprejete smernice za učinkovitost pomoči in zagotovljeni tečaji usposabljanja na sedežu ter po svetu.
A significant contributor to strengthening partner country “ownership” and confidence in donor countries that they can use the partner country’s own management systems (“alignment”) is the move to providing aid in the form of direct budget support, so that it is administered entirely within the partner country’s own systems.
H krepitvi „lastništva“ držav partneric in zaupanja držav donatork, da lahko vsaka država partnerica uporablja lasten sistem upravljanja („uskladitev“), je največ prispeval prehod na zagotavljanje pomoči v obliki neposredne proračunske podpore, tako da se ta upravlja v celoti znotraj sistemov držav partneric.
The European Consensus identifies budget support as “the preferred modality where conditions allow”.
Evropsko soglasje opisuje proračunsko podporo kot „najprimernejši način, kadar je to mogoče“.
The Commission has increased its use of country systems through budget support to just over 35% of programmable aid in the EDF between 2003 and 2005.
Komisija je s proračunsko podporo povečala uporabo sistemov držav na malo več kot 35 % programske pomoči v ERS med letoma 2003 in 2005.
The Commission is closely involved in supporting “fragile” states.
Komisija je neposredno udeležena v podpiranju „ranljivih“ držav.
For instance, in Palestine, it has worked closely with the World Bank to design and introduce a Temporary International Mechanism (TIM), in order to maintain the provision of essential public services and to protect ordinary Palestinians from the effects of the crisis, with 14 Member States and Norway contributing.
V Palestini na primer tesno sodeluje s Svetovno banko pri snovanju in uvedbi začasnega mednarodnega mehanizma za ohranitev zagotavljanja bistvenih javnih storitev in zaščito palestinskega prebivalstva pred učinki krize, k čemur prispevajo tudi 14 držav članic in Norveška.
In 2006 the TIM paid over € 88 million in social allowances to public-sector employees and pensioners with low incomes, and nearly € 24 million was paid directly to poor and vulnerable Palestinians directly affected by the crisis.
V letu 2006 je bilo iz sredstev začasnega mednarodnega mehanizma izplačanih 88 milijonov EUR socialnih dodatkov za delavce v javnem sektorju in upokojence z nizkimi osebnimi dohodki, skoraj 24 milijonov EUR pa je bilo neposredno izplačanih revnim in ogroženim Palestincem, ki jih je kriza neposredno prizadela.
Since the reform of the management of external assistance programmes was launched in 2000, increased emphasis has been placed on improving the speed and quality of the delivery of aid.
Od uvedbe reforme upravljanja programov zunanje pomoči v letu 2000 se vse več poudarka namenja izboljševanju hitrosti in kakovosti zagotavljanja pomoči.
The levels of implementation achieved in 2006 demonstrate that, again, the speed of delivery is improving.
Ravni izvajanja, dosežene v letu 2006, kažejo, da se hitrost zagotavljanja pomoči znova izboljšuje.
In general the Commission supports the use of Trust Funds, often managed by the United Nations or the World Bank, as a way of delivering aid in such situations.
Komisija načeloma podpira uporabo skrbniških skladov, ki jih pogosto upravljajo Združeni narodi ali Svetovna banka, kot obliko zagotavljanja pomoči v takšnih situacijah.
It helps to ensure that aid (particularly for reconstruction) is properly co-ordinated and delivered as quickly as possible.
Komisija pomaga pri zagotavljanju, da se pomoč (predvsem za obnovo) pravilno usklajuje in zagotovi čim hitreje.
In 2006 the total amounts of aid delivered by the Commission through the United Nations and the World Bank remained at about € 1.5 billion.
Višina skupnega zneska pomoči, ki ga je Komisija zagotovila prek Združenih narodov in Svetovne banke, je v letu 2006 ostala približno 1,5 milijarde EUR.
In the course of the year, agreements were signed with both organisations on the visibility to be given to the Commission’s contribution to these activities, not least in view of the concerns of many that the European contribution towards relieving suffering and supporting peace in the world should be more evident to Europe’s citizens and to the beneficiaries of this support.
Med letom sta bila z obema organizacijama podpisana sporazuma, v skladu s katerima je treba prispevkom Komisije k tem dejavnostim zagotoviti večjo opaznost, ne nazadnje zaradi interesa mnogih, da se evropski prispevek k lajšanju trpljenja in podpiranju miru na svetu jasneje predstavi evropskim državljanom ter upravičencem do te podpore.
In total € 9.832 billion of ODA was committed by the Commission in 2006, and €8.130 was paid.
V letu 2006 je Komisija namenila skupno 9,832 milijarde EUR za uradno razvojno pomoč, izplačala je 8,130 milijarde EUR.
Of the amount of commitments which can be geographically allocated, namely € 7.982 billion, nearly half (€ 3.552 billion) was for ACP countries, which received € 2.848 billion of the comparable total of € 6.8 billion payments.
Od zneska obveznosti, ki se lahko razporedijo geografsko, to je 7,982 milijarde EUR, se je skoraj polovica (3,552 milijarde EUR) dodelila državam AKP, ki so prejele 2,848 milijarde EUR v skupnem primerljivem znesku izplačil v višini 6,8 milijarde EUR.
Seventy per cent of the world’s poorest people live in middle-income countries.
Sedemdeset odstotkov najrevnejšega prebivalstva na svetu živi v državah s srednjimi dohodki.
The Commission recognises that economic growth is an essential precondition for social development and poverty reduction strategies in these countries.
Komisija se zaveda, da je gospodarska rast bistven predpogoj za strategije za socialni razvoj in zniževanje revščine v teh državah.
However, growth alone is not sufficient.
Vendar rast sama ni dovolj.
