THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 215(1) and (2) thereof,

Having regard to the joint proposal from the High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and the Commission,

Whereas:

(1) Common Position 2009/788/CFSP provides for certain restrictive measures concerning members of the National Council for Democracy and Development (NCDD) and individuals associated with them, responsible for the violent repression of 28 September 2009 or the political stalemate in the country.

(2) Those measures include the freezing of funds and economic resources of the natural or legal persons, entities and bodies listed in the Annex to the Common Position, as well as a prohibition on the provision of technical and financial assistance and other services related to military equipments to any natural or legal person, entity or body in, or for use in, the Republic of Guinea. The measures also include a prohibition on the sale, supply, transfer or export of equipment to the Republic of Guinea which could be used for internal repression.

(3) Those measures fall within the scope of the Treaty and, therefore, notably with a view to ensuring their uniform application by economic operators in all Member States, legislation at the level of the Union is necessary in order to implement them as far as the Union is concerned.

(4) Any processing of personal data of natural persons under this Regulation should observe Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2000 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data by the Community institutions and bodies and on the free movement of such data [2] and Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data [3].
