# Council Decision (CFSP) 2019/2111 of 9 December 2019 in support of SEESAC disarmament and arms control activities in South-East Europe reducing the threat of illicit small arms and light weapons and their ammunition, Division 4: Beneficiaries

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

The direct beneficiaries of the project will be the institutions responsible for SALW control in SEE. The authorities of the interior, police services, border guards, criminal investigators, prosecutors and customs authorities of the Republic of Albania, BiH, Kosovo, the Republic of Moldova, Montenegro, Republic of Serbia and the Republic of North Macedonia will benefit from information exchange and knowledge‐sharing leading to standardisation through regional cooperation, capacity development, improved procedures and provision of targeted specialised equipment necessary for policy, operational and technical advancements in SALW control. Finally, SALW Commissions and other institutions responsible for the control of SALW in SEE will benefit from training and information‐sharing as well as regional cooperation. In addition, key institutions tasked with SALW control in Belarus and Ukraine will benefit from a better understanding of the illicit firearms trafficking threat and targeted knowledge transfer.
The proposed activities are fully in line with the national priorities on SALW control and the Roadmap, and have been endorsed by the relevant national SALW control authorities, demonstrating their buy‐in and commitment to the achievement of project results.
The general population of the countries in South-East and East Europe and the Union, at risk from the widespread proliferation of SALW, will benefit from this project as the risk decreases.
