In its communication entitled ‘Towards an EU response to situations of fragility — engaging in difficult environments for sustainable development, stability and peace’, the Commission recognised the essential contribution made by the Union to the promotion of peace and stability by addressing expressions of violence and root causes of insecurity and violent conflict. This Regulation should contribute to the attainment of those goals.
Ina Theachtaireacht, “I dtreo fhreagairt AE ar staideanna leochaileacha — ag dul i ngleic le timpeallachtaí achrannacha le haghaidh na forbartha, na cobhsaíochta agus na síochána inbhuanaí”, tugann an Coimisiún aitheantas don rannchuidiú riachtanach a rinneadh le comhar an Aontais maidir leis an tsíocháin agus leis an gcobhsaíocht a chothú trí aghaidh a thabhairt ar ghníomhartha foréigneacha agus ar bhunchúiseanna neamhshláine agus coinbhleachtaí foréigneacha, agus ba cheart go rannchuideodh an Rialachán seo leis na spriocanna sin a bhaint amach.
