Die EU-Botschafter werden nächste Woche über die vorgeschlagenen Änderungen diskutieren.

Zunächst eine Mitteilung von Euractiv: Wir starten einen neuen wöchentlichen Newsletter, der sich mit den Beziehungen der EU zu China und dem gesamten asiatisch-pazifischen Raum befasst. Red Thread, verfasst von Euractiv-Redakteurin Christina Zhao, wird beleuchten, wie Brüssel und Peking die Entscheidungen des jeweils anderen beeinflussen.  Melden Sie sich hier kostenlos an. Willkommen bei Rapporteur! Jeden […]

À l’occasion du 30ᵉ anniversaire de l’Accord d’association UE-Maroc, la 15ᵉ réunion du Conseil d’association a réaffirmé l’importance du partenariat stratégique entre les deux parties, soulignant ses avancées dans divers domaines et leur engagement commun pour une coopération renforcée, notamment face aux défis régionaux et internationaux.

The Council adopted a second assistance measure for Armenia worth €20 million under the European Peace Facility.

The Council adopted restrictive measures against six individuals in view of Russia’s destabilising activities against the EU and its member states and partners.

Statement by the High Representative on behalf of the European Union on the alignment of certain third countries with Council Decision (CFSP) 2026/122 of 16 January 2026 amending Decision (CFSP) 2024/385 establishing restrictive measures against those who support, facilitate or enable violent actions by Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad.

The Council listed seven individuals for serious human rights violations and abuses, and threatening the peace, stability and security of Sudan.

The Council imposed restrictive measures related to serious human rights violations in Iran and to Iran’s continued military support to Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine.

The European Commission drew up seven impact assessments (IAs) in support of 18 programme proposals for the 2028-2034 multiannual financial framework (MFF) and the proposed regulation on a horizontal performance framework. The broad scope of these IAs does not allow individual programme proposals to be assessed in any detail – as is particularly salient in the case of the IA on the national and regional partnership plans, covering nine legislative proposals. All IAs acknowledge a deviation from the scope and depth of a standard IA as defined by the Better Regulation Guidelines (BRG). This is justified with Tool #9 of the BR Toolbox, which indicates the specificity of the MFF, but does not define how related IAs should be carried out. As a result, the application of the better regulation principles varies widely across the MFF IAs. They are similar insofar as the Commission chose for all of them a mostly horizontal rather than policy-specific approach and did not include any budgetary considerations and scenarios. These choices affect the quality of key sections of the IAs considerably, albeit to varying extents. The problem definition often lacks specificity and substantiation. Similarly, the IAs' objectives remain largely unspecific, which, in turn, affects the IAs' monitoring and evaluation provisions and risks hampering the future measuring of the objectives' achievement. The description of policy options is in most cases short and vague, which weakens the impact analysis. The depth to which economic, social and environmental impacts are assessed varies across the sampled IAs. The analysis remains predominantly qualitative, with quantification largely lacking. All seven MFF initiatives are deemed relevant for small and medium-sized enterprises (SME) and are thus listed in the 'SME filter'. The IAs state that they place great emphasis on simplification and burden reduction. None of them is accompanied by a subsidiarity grid, and they discuss subsidiarity, European added value and proportionality rather briefly. While the IAs differ considerably in terms of quality and transparency when it comes to their evidence base and methodology, all of them acknowledge certain limitations and a lack of data (notably quantitative data). Consultation activities were largely limited to open public consultations. The Regulatory Scrutiny Board (RSB) found significant shortcomings in all seven draft IAs, prompting it, exceptionally, to issue opinions without qualification. The persisting flaws in the final IAs suggest that the RSB recommendations have at best been partially addressed. Altogether, the limited quality of the MFF IAs appears to reflect a missed opportunity to provide policymakers with high-quality and transparent evidence for one of the most important policy packages to be negotiated in the coming months and years.
