Rome in 1957, a Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe was signed on29 October. The new Treaty, which was also signed in Rome and thus marks a symbolicreturn to the origins of the Community, was the result of a unique process begun in the Convention on the Future of the European Union and completed at the Intergovernmental Conference.
SPLOŠNO POROČILO povratek h koreninam, je naloga nove pogodbe, novega sadu združenega dela Konvencije o prihodnosti Evropske unije in medvladne konference, naknadno združenih za oblikovanje Pogodbe, podelitev sredstev razširjeni Uniji, potrebnih za boljše doseganje njenih ciljev.
Its aim is to provide the enlarged Union with the meansit needs to attain its objectives, and to do so more efficiently. On the internal front,these relate primarily to creating an area of freedom, security and justice and aninternal market open to competition, promoting sustainable development, scientificprogress and economic and social cohesion, combating social injustice and preserving Europe’s cultural heritage.
Ti zadnji na notranji ravni še posebno zadevajo razvoj območja svobode, varnosti in pravice ter področja notranjega trga, odprtega konkurenci, spodbujanje trajnostnega razvoja, znanstvenega napredka ter gospodarske in socialne kohezije, boj proti družbeni nepravičnosti in varstvo evropske kulturne dediščine.
On the international front, the Union must assert andpromote its values and strive to contribute to peace, security, the sustainabledevelopment of the planet, free and fair trade, the elimination of poverty and theprotection of human rights.
Cilj Unije kot globalnega partnerja mora biti s hkratnim potrjevanjem in spodbujanjem svojih vrednot prispevati k miru, varnosti, trajnostnemu razvoju planeta, prosti in pravični trgovini, odpravi revščine in varstvu človekovih pravic.
Incorporation of the Charter of Fundamental Rights intothe Treaty is one of the new means to these ends. Others include extension of the useof qualified-majority voting, new powers in the field of economic governance and newareas of activity, and the creation of a new post of European Union Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Poleg vključitve Listine Unije o temeljnih pravicah v Pogodbo se ustrezni, na novo opredeljeni načini uvajajo zlasti s širitvijo področja uporabe glasovanja s kvalificirano večino, ustvarjanjem pristojnosti na področju gospodarskega vodenja ali novih področjih dejavnosti in institutom funkcije ministra za zunanje zadeve Evropske unije.
For the new Treaty to enter into force it must now be ratified by each of the25 Member States.
Za začetek veljavnosti mora biti sedaj Pogodba ratificirana v vsaki od petindvajsetih držav članic Unije.
The timetable for 2004 dictated that these major developments — the arrival of 10 new Member States and the signing of the Treaty on the Constitution — coincided with theelection of a new European Parliament and the appointment of a new Commission.Because of the enlargement on 1 May the handover was completed in two stages.
Zaradi posebnega koledarja leta 2004 je vzporedno z velikimi premiki, ki sta jih predstavljala prihod desetih dodatnih držav članic in podpis Pogodbe o Ustavi, sovpadla izvolitev novega Evropskega parlamenta in začetek delovanja nove Komisije. Zaradi širitve 1. maja se je ta prenova sicer izvršila v dveh delih.
Inthe final months of its mandate, the Prodi Commission was joined by one Commissioner from each of the new Member States, bringing the number of Membersup to 30.
Tako je ob zaključku mandata Prodijeve Komisije leta sprejela enega dodatnega komisarja iz vsake nove države članice in tako dosegla število tridesetih članov.
In June the Council nominated José Manuel Barroso, the Portuguese Prime Minister, as President of the future Commission.
Junija je Svet imenoval Joséja Manuela Barrosa, portugalskega predsednika vlade, za predsednika prihodnje Komisije. To izbiro je julija odobril Evropski parlament, katerega 732 članov je bilo izvoljenih nekaj tednov prej.
A number of changes were madeto the original list as a result of problems during the parliamentary hearings, and thecomposition of the Commission was not approved by Parliament until 18 November.The new Commission was then definitively appointed by the Council and took office on22 November for a five-year term.
Ta začetni seznam je bil spremenjen zaradi težav, ki so se pojavile med zaslišanji v Evropskem parlamentu, zato je bila sestava Komisije odobrena v Parlamentu šele 18. novembra. Po dokončnem imenovanju s strani Sveta je nova Komisija prevzela svoje naloge 22. novembra za mandat petih let.
Javier Solana was reappointed to his dual function of Secretary-General of the Council and High Representative for the Common Foreign and Security Policy.
Obnovljena je bila dvojna funkcija Javierja Solane, generalnega sekretarja Sveta in visokega predstavnika za skupno zunanjo in varnostno politiko.
Consensus has been reached among the Member States that he willhold the post of European Foreign Minister created by the future Constitution whenthe new Treaty enters into force, and in this capacity will have a seat in both the Counciland the Commission in accordance with the institutional balance.
Na podlagi soglasja med državami članicami bo opravljal funkcijo ministra za zunanje zadeve Evropske unije, ki bo vzpostavljena s prihodnjo Ustavo, ko bo leta pričela veljati, in zaradi tega naslova se bo udeleževal sej tako Sveta kot Komisije zaradi ravnotežja med institucijami.
This Report is divided into subject-related chapters, highlighting a number of keypoints corresponding to the year’s main achievements and giving an overallimpression of the activities of the European Union in 2004.
V tematskih poglavjih v nadaljevanju, ki predstavljajo ogrodje tega poročila in poudarjajo nekatere „ključne točke“, ki ustrezajo glavnim izvršenim nalogam, sledi pregled vseh dejavnosti Unije v letu 2004.
We shall focus in thisintroduction on a few issues that were particularly significant.
Tukaj se osredotočimo na tiste vidike, ki so leta 2004 posebno izstopali.
First it is important to make the point that the activities of the European Union cannotbe viewed in isolation from the external context in which it operated.
Kot prvo, izvajanja dejavnosti Unije ne moremo izvzeti iz zunanjega konteksta, v katerega je umeščeno.
With its newly expanded external frontiers, the European Union sought to give greatersubstance to the neighbourhood policy it has been gradually developing over the pasttwo years.
Zaradi svojih novih meja je Unija med drugim želela narediti „Evropsko sosedsko politiko“, ki se je postopno porajala pretekli dve leti, bolj učinkovito.
Action plans have now been finalised for some of its neighbours in eastern Europe and the southern Mediterranean.
Ta politika se je že udejanjila z določitvijo akcijskih načrtov v korist nekaterih sosednjih držav vzhodne Evrope ali južnega Sredozemlja.
The interest shown in the electoral processesin countries such as Ukraine and Belarus takes on special significance in view of thedefence of ‘common values’ promoted under this neighbourhood policy.
V tem smislu se je povečala pozornost, namenjena poteku volilnega procesa v državah, kot sta Belorusija ali Ukrajina, z vidika zaščite „skupnih vrednot“, razglašenih v korist te sosedske politike.
The continuing conflict in Iraq and the persistence or emergence of other criseselsewhere that once again dominated the headlines across the world in 2004 haveprompted the European Union to consolidate its advances in the area of security anddefence.
Nadaljevanje konflikta v Iraku ter celo ohranitev ali pojav drugih kriznih žarišč na svetu, ki so še naprej zaznamovali aktualne dogodke na mednarodnem prizorišču v letu 2004, so Unijo pripeljali do utrditve njenega napredka na področju varnosti in obrambe.
The replacement of the NATO-led multinational stabilisation force in Bosniaand Herzegovina by the Union-led military operation ‘Althea’ is a potent symbol of this,as is the launch of the first rule of law mission in Georgia and the Eupol-Kinshasa policemission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Ponovna vzpostavitev Mednarodnih stabilizacijskih sil, ki delujejo pod okriljem NATO, v Bosni in Hercegovini z vojaško operacijo „Althea“, za katero je odgovorna Evropska unija, predstavlja pomemben simbol te utrditve, prav tako kot vzpostavitev prve misije „Pravna država“ v Gruziji ali misije „Eupol-Kinšasa“ v Demokratični republiki Kongo.
On a more general level, the first steps were taken to implement the European securitystrategy adopted at the end of 2003: in June the European Council approved an actionplan to combat terrorism and endorsed an EU strategy on weapons of massdestruction.
Še več, začela se je izvajati evropska varnostna strategija, ki je bila odobrena konec leta 2003: Evropski svet je junija potrdil Akcijski načrt za boj proti terorizmu in dal soglasje k strategiji Unije na področju orožja za množično uničevanje.
A European Defence Agency was also set up.
Poleg tega je bila ustanovljena Evropska obrambna agencija.
On the internal affairs front, new initiatives were launched in two policy areas in thiscrucial year.
Na notranjem področju so se v tem prehodnem letu pričela dela predvsem na dveh področjih.
First, the creation of an area of freedom, security and justice in the European Union wasgiven fresh impetus.
Prvo zadeva nov zagon za izvajanje območja svobode, varnosti in pravice znotraj Evropske unije.
In November the European Council adopted a new multiannualprogramme for 2005 to 2009, ‘the Hague programme’, which was largely based on the Commission’s progress report on implementation of the 1999 Tampere programme.The new programme sets out priorities for future action in the various areas concernedand reflects the ambitions expressed in this connection in the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe.
Evropski svet je novembra v veliki meri na podlagi bilance Komisije glede izvajanja programa, opredeljenega v Tampereju leta 1999, za vzpostavitev takšnega območja sprejel nov večletni program za obdobje 2005–2009, tako imenovan „Haaški program“.
It covers all aspects of the policies involved, including theirexternal dimension, encompassing fundamental rights and citizenship, asylum andimmigration, border management, integration, the fight against terrorism and
Leta razglaša prihodnje prednostne naloge na različnih zadevnih področjih, zlasti v povezavi z ambicijami, izraženimi v tem pogledu v Pogodbi o Ustavi za Evropo. Program obravnava vse vidike politik, povezanih z
GENERAL REPORT organised crime, judicial cooperation in civil and criminal matters, and policecooperation.
Ta pristop zlasti zajema temeljne pravice in državljanstvo, azil in priseljevanje, upravljanje meja, integracijo, boj proti terorizmu in organiziranemu kriminalu, sodno in policijsko sodelovanje ter civilno pravo.
A drugs strategy was added to the programme in December.
Strategija na področju drog je dopolnila program decembra.
The European Council stressed the vital importance of creating appropriate European legalinstruments, reinforcing practical and operational cooperation between the relevantnational agencies, and implementing the agreed measures promptly.
Evropski svet je menil, da je bistvenega pomena vzpostavitev prilagojenih evropskih pravnih instrumentov ter okrepitev konkretnega in operativnega sodelovanja med pristojnimi državnimi službami, kot tudi pravočasno izvajanje sprejetih ukrepov.
Second, pursuit of the Lisbon strategy developed in 2000 with a view to promoting adynamic European economy based on knowledge, competitiveness and growth that iscompatible with higher employment and greater social cohesion was also given newmomentum.
Drugi sveženj se nanaša na napredovanje lizbonske strategije iz leta 2000 glede možnosti spodbujanja dinamičnega evropskega gospodarstva, temelječega na znanju, konkurenčnosti, kot tudi rasti, usklajeni s povečevanjem zaposlovanja in socialne kohezije.
In advance of the mid-term review of the strategy, planned for spring2005, the Commission charged a high-level group chaired by former Dutch Prime Minister Wim Kok with conducting a preliminary assessment.
Z vidika vmesnega pregleda, določenega za pomlad 2005, tako zastavljene strategije je Komisija zaupala skrb za postavitev prve diagnoze skupini na visoki ravni pod predsedstvom Wima Koka, nekdanjega nizozemskega predsednika vlade.
Its report, in November,drew two conclusions: firstly that there was an urgent need to speed up theimplementation of the Lisbon strategy, and secondly that the challenges facing Europehad increased since the strategy was launched.
Poročilo o tej temi, izdano novembra, je upoštevalo dvojno ugotovitev: na eni strani nujnost začetka pospešenega izvajanja lizbonske strategije in na drugi strani povečanje izzivov, s katerimi je soočena Evropa po uvedbi te strategije.
The Council agreed with this analysis.The European Council, for its part, reaffirmed the importance of implementation by the Member States of the measures agreed under the Lisbon strategy and welcomed the Commission’s intention of maintaining the strategy at the heart of its agenda.
Svet se je strinjal sto oceno. Evropski svet je ponovno potrdil pomembnost izvajanja ustreznih ukrepov v lizbonski strategiji za države članice ter pozdravil namen ohranitve izvajanja te strategije kot bistva svoje dejavnosti, ki ga je izrazila Komisija.
The conclusions and calls for a new impetus to be given to the Lisbon strategy reflectan awareness of the difficulties experienced with its implementation.
Zaključki ali pozivi v korist nove spodbude za lizbonsko strategijo odražajo osveščenost s težavami, ki so se pojavile med njenim izvajanjem.
In general terms,these are due to continuing delays and failings in transposing Community directivesinto national legislation.
Na splošno te ovire povzročajo nenehne zamude ali napake pri prenosu direktiv Skupnosti na državno raven.
More specifically, they are due to the impasse on a number ofdossiers, for example the legislation relating to the introduction of a Communitypatent.
Bolj podrobno povzročajo blokiranje nekaterih svežnjev, kakor nam kaže počasnost zakonodajnih dejavnosti glede uvedbe patenta Skupnosti.
Consequently, revitalisation of the Lisbon process has now assumed hugepolitical importance.
Nujnost poživitve lizbonskega procesa nosi pod temi pogoji zelo važen politični pomen.
Looking ahead, one of the key issues remains the preparation of the financialperspective for the period 2007 to 2013 to underpin the activities of an enlarged European Union that is due to expand even further.
11 sporočilom, predstavljenim julija, zlasti za prenovitev Medinstitucionalnega sporazuma o proračunski disciplini in izboljšanju proračunskega postopka; na operativni ravni je Komisija julija predstavila prvi sveženj predlogov aktov glede programov in instrumentov, ki zadevajo področja, kot so socialna politika in zaposlovanje, gospodarska in socialna kohezija, promet, kmetijstvo in razvoj podeželja, ribištvo, izobraževanje in kultura.
Building on the initial guidelinesdrawn up in 2003, the Commission has now given a more detailed picture of theapproach it advocates.
Prav tako je zaključila svoj prvi niz predlogov aktov z novim svežnjem, ki zadeva okolje, jedrsko energijo, predpristopno obdobje, sosedsko politiko in razvojno sodelovanje.
On the conceptual level, the Commission issued a communication in Februarysetting out the policy challenges and budgetary means of an enlarged European Union and identifying as key priorities the promotion of sustainable development,the development of European citizenship, and the strengthening of the Union as aglobal partner; it also emphasised the need to improve the budgetary procedurein order to allow a more effective response to emergencies or economic crises;thisfirst outline was followed by a second communication presented in July with aview to renewing the interinstitutional agreement on budgetary discipline andimproving the budgetary procedure.
Poleg svoje čisto finančne vsebine posegajo tako načrtovane perspektive bolj v globino, kar lahko štejemo kot novo arhitekturo Evropske unije do leta 2010, na katerega se nanaša precejšnje število zadev, ki se trenutno obravnavajo, kot na primer lizbonska strategija ali prometna in energetska politika.
The year 2004 undoubtedly marked a watershed in the evolution of the European Union.
Pogodba o Ustavi za Evropo je bila podpisana v Rimu 29. oktobra.
Europe emerged a substantially enlarged political entity, and a new Parliamentand a new Commission began their terms of office.
Stremi k uzakonjenju skupnih vrednot Evropske unije, uokvirjenju njenih politik in upravljanju njenega delovanja.
The first steps were taken to endow Europe with its own Constitution.
Naj spomnimo, da je bila dejavnost te konference nadaljevanje pripravljalnih del, izvedenih v okviru Konvencije o prihodnosti Evropske unije, ki je pripravila osnutek julija 2003.
And, at the same time, work started on drawing up astrategic financial framework that will give the European Union the means to match itsambitions.
Da bi lahko začela veljati, mora biti sedaj Pogodba ratificirana v vsaki od petindvajsetih držav članic s parlamentarnim in/ali referendumskim glasovanjem.
The purpose of the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe is to make the enlarged European Union more democratic, more transparent and more efficient.
Cilj Pogodbe o Ustavi za Evropo je povečati demokratičnost, transparentnost in učinkovitost razširjene Evropske unije.
The Constitution is made up of four parts:
Ustava je sestavljena iz štirih delov:
—Part I contains the provisions which define the Union, its objectives, its powers, itsdecision-making procedures and its institutions;
I. del vsebuje določbe o opredelitvi Unije, njenih ciljih, pristojnostih, postopkih odločanja in institucijah;
—the Charter of Fundamental Rights adopted in 2000 has been incorporated into the Constitution as Part II;
— v Ustavo je bila vključena Listina Unije o temeljnih pravicah, sprejeta leta 2000, in tvori njen II. del;
—Part III focuses on the Union’s policies and actions, and includes many of the provisionsof the current Treaties;
III. del določa politike in delovanje Unije in povzema pomembno število določb sedanjih pogodb;
—Part IV contains the final clauses, including the procedures for adopting and revising the Constitution.
IV. del vsebuje končne določbe, med njimi postopke za sprejetje in spremembo Ustave.
Signed in Rome on 29 October, the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe willenter into force on 1 November 2006 if all the Member States have ratified it by that date.The ratification process will be conducted in each Member State in accordance withtheir respective constitutional rules (through parliamentary channels and/or by meansof a referendum).
Pogodba o Ustavi za Evropo je bila podpisana v Rimu 29. oktobra in bo začela veljati 1. novembra 2006, če jo bodo do takrat ratificirale vse države članice. Ratifikacija v vsaki državi članici poteka v skladu z njenimi lastnimi ustavnimi pravili (parlamentarno in/ali referendumsko glasovanje).
Once all the parties to the Treaty of Accession, signed in Athens on 16 April 2003, hadcompleted the constitutional procedures necessary for its ratification, the Treatyentered into force on 1 May 2004, as its authors had wished.
Glede nato, da so vse stranke Pristopne pogodbe, podpisane v Atenah 16. aprila 2003, izvedle ustavne postopke, potrebne za njeno ratifikacijo, je Pogodba v skladu z željami njenih zagovornikov začela veljati 1. maja 2004.
Efforts to adapt existing Community legislation continued so as to allow the 10 new Member States to accede to the Union on 1 May.
Da bi olajšali uspešen vstop desetih novih držav članic v Evropsko unijo s tem datumom, se je začel postopek prilagoditve veljavne zakonodaje Skupnosti.
New laws were adopted by the Council and the Commission in areas such as the free movement of goods, companylaw, agriculture, education, culture and external relations.
Svet in Komisija sta tako sprejela nove predpise na področjih, kot so prosti pretok blaga, pravo družb, kmetijstvo, izobraževanje in kultura, zunanji odnosi.
Measures were introduced to take account of the special situation of Cyprus as anisland divided into two communities.
Sprejete so bile določbe za upoštevanje posebnega položaja na Cipru, nastalega zaradi delitve otoka na dve skupnosti.
Following the Greek Cypriots’ rejection of the UNpeace plan in a referendum, the Council defined the terms under which Communitylaw would be applied to persons and goods crossing the ‘green line’ dividing the northand south of the island. The Commission proposed measures to facilitate tradebetween that part of the island not under Cypriot government control and the Community customs territory, to which it provisionally does not belong.
Načrt ponovnega združenja, ki so ga pripravili Združeni narodi, je grška stran na referendumu zavrnila, zato je Svet opredelil pogoje, pod katerimi se uporablja zakonodaja Skupnosti, kar zadeva gibanje oseb in blaga preko razmejitvene črte med severom in jugom otoka; Komisija pa je predlagala sprejetje ukrepov, ki bi omogočili olajšanje trgovine med delom otoka, ki ni pod dejanskim nadzorom vlade, in carinskim območjem Skupnosti, kateremu ta del trenutno ne pripada.
The Commission also proposed financial assistance measures specifically for that area ofthe island.
Prav tako je predlagala odobritev posebne finančne pomoči za razvoj tega dela otoka.
The process of enlargement to other countries continued in various forms, as set out inthe annual strategy paper adopted by the Commission on progress achieved and in itsaccompanying regular reports on the situation in the different countries.
Nadaljevanje procesa širitve z drugimi državami se je izvajalo na različnih ravneh, kar odraža letni strateški dokument Komisije o napredku, doseženem v tem procesu, ki ga spremljajo redna poročila o stanju v različnih državah.
The accessionnegotiations were completed with Bulgaria and Romania, whose applications hadbeen accepted at the same time as some of the new Member States.
Tako so se pristopna pogajanja zaključila z Bolgarijo in Romunijo, katerih kandidaturi sta bili sprejeti istočasno kot kandidature nekaterih novih držav članic.
The Commissionproposed an EUR 15.4 billion commitment to assist the two countries in the first threeyears after their scheduled date of accession, 1 January 2007.
Komisija je predlagala zagotovitev 15,4 milijarde EUR v korist teh dveh držav v prvih treh letih po 1. januarju 2007, predvidenem datumu za njun dejanski pristop.
The December European Council endorsed the closing of the negotiations with a view to the Accession Treatybeing signed as early as possible in 2005.
Evropski svet je decembra potrdil zaključek pogajanj z najbolj zgodnjo možnostjo podpisa pristopne pogodbe v letu 2005.
The December European Council also decided to open accession negotiations with Turkeyin the light of an opinion delivered by the Commission in October. The decision was taken
Ta odločitev je bila sprejeta ob upoštevanju napredka, ki ga je ta država dosegla pri izpeljavi reform, kot tudi ob upoštevanju pozitivnih znakov,
GENERAL REPORT in recognition of the progress achieved by Turkey on reforms and of the positive signsregarding settlement of unresolved border disputes with current Member States.Continued efforts in that direction should allow negotiations to start in October 2005.
Nadaljevanje teh prizadevanj bi moralo omogočiti začetek pogajanj v oktobru 2005.
In response to a favourable Commission opinion on Croatia’s application, the June European Council decided to open the accession negotiations at the start of 2005.
Glede kandidature Hrvaške je Evropski svet junija na podlagi pozitivnega mnenja Komisije sklenil, da prične s pristopnimi pogajanji v začetku leta 2005.
Theterms and conditions applying to the procedure were specified at the Decembersummit.
Na svojem decembrskem zasedanju je podrobno določil pogoje tega postopka. V septembru je Svet ustanovil „Evropsko partnerstvo“ sto državo, kakor ga je marca ustanovil z drugimi državami zahodnega Balkana.
On 22 March, the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia also submitted an application for EU membership.
22. marca je tudi Nekdanja jugoslovanska republika Makedonija predložila prošnjo za pristop k Uniji.
