THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on European Union, and in particular Article 29 thereof,
Whereas:
(1)
On 10 November 2000, the Council adopted Common Position 2000/696/CFSP.
(2)
Common Position 2000/696/CFSP gave effect to the stipulation in Council Common Position 2000/599/CFSP that specific restrictive measures directed against Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him should be maintained.
(3)
Common Position 2000/696/CFSP consequently revised the restrictive measures provided for in Council Common Positions 98/240/CFSP, 98/326/CFSP and 1999/318/CFSP in order to maintain only those restrictive provisions directed against Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him.
(4)
Mr Milosevic and persons associated with him no longer represent a threat to the consolidation of democracy and, consequently, there are no grounds to continue applying those restrictive measures.
(5)
Common Positions 98/240/CFSP, 98/326/CFSP, 1999/318/CFSP, 2000/599/CFSP and 2000/696/CFSP should therefore be repealed,
