Council Regulation (EC) No 765/2006 provides for a freezing of the assets of President Lukashenko and certain officials of Belarus, as well as persons responsible for serious violations of human rights or the repression of civil society and democratic opposition, and persons and entities benefiting from or supporting the Lukashenko regime, including in particular persons and entities providing financial or material support to the regime. In order to provide for greater clarity, the Council has decided to clarify and consolidate the criteria for listing natural or legal persons, entities and bodies in the Annexes to Council Decision 2010/639/CFSP by a new Decision replacing the former as of 1 November 2012 and consolidating these Annexes into a single Annex. This measure falls within the scope of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and regulatory action at the level of the Union is therefore necessary in order to give effect to it, in particular with a view to ensuring its uniform application by economic operators in all Member States. The High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the European Commission propose to amend Council Regulation (EC) No 765/2006 accordingly. |
