I gcás ina mbrisfidh ceann de na galair ainmhithe nó de na zónóisí atá liostaithe de bhun Airteagal 10 amach nó ina mbeidh ceann acu ag forbairt, agus gur dóigh dóibh stádas sláinte an Aontais a chur i mbaol, agus chun an tAontas a chosaint ar thabhairt isteach ceann de na galair nó de na zónóisí sin, féadfaidh Ballstáit bearta a áireamh ina gcláir náisiúnta a chuirfear chun feidhme i gcríocha tríú tíortha comharsanachta i gcomhar le húdaráis na dtíortha sin.
