of 22 December 2009
imposing certain specific restrictive measures in respect of the Republic of Guinea
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215(1) and (2) thereof,
Having regard to Council Common Position 2009/788/CFSP of 27 October 2009 concerning restrictive measures against the Republic of Guinea (1), as amended by Council Decision 2009/1003/CFSP of 22 December 2009,

(2) |
Those measures include the freezing of funds and economic resources of the natural or legal persons, entities and bodies listed in the Annex to the Common Position, as well as a prohibition on the provision of technical and financial assistance and other services related to military equipments to any natural or legal person, entity or body in, or for use in, the Republic of Guinea. The measures also include a prohibition on the sale, supply, transfer or export of equipment to the Republic of Guinea which could be used for internal repression. |
