COUNCIL REGULATION (EURATOM, EEC) No 2053/93 of 19 July 1993 concerning the provision of technical assistance to economic reform and recovery in the independent States of the former Soviet Union and Mongolia

THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 235 thereof,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Atomic Energy Community, and in particular Article 203 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (1),

Whereas pursuant to the European Council in Dublin and in Rome in 1990 the European Community introduced a technical assistance programme in favour of economic reform and recovery in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics;

Whereas Council Regulation (EEC, Euratom) No 2157/91 of 15 July 1991 concerning the provision of technical assistance to economic reform and recovery in the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (2) laid down the conditions for the provisions of this technical assistance and foresaw such an operation under the 1991 and 1992 budgetary periods;

Whereas such assistance will be fully effective only in the context of progress towards free and open democratic systems that respect human rights, and towards market-oriented economic systems;

Whereas the implementation of such technical assistance should enable conditions favourable to private investment to be established;

Whereas it is appropriate to establish priorities for this technical assistance;

Whereas to ensure that unforeseen circumstances do not unduly hamper the process of recovery in the independent States, it is necessary to permit a certain amount of the financial allocation to be used exceptionally for humanitarian aid;

Whereas the European Council at its meeting in Rome also stressed the importance of effective coordination by the Commission of the efforts made in the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics by the Community and its Member States acting individually;

Whereas it is appropriate that the Commission be assisted in the implementation of Community aid by a committee made up of Member...
