DECISION No 1/2019 OF THE EU-UKRAINE ASSOCIATION COUNCIL
of 8 July 2019
as regards the amendment of Annex XXVII to the Association Agreement between the European
Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and
Ukraine, of the other part [2019/1599]
THE EU-UKRAINE ASSOCIATION COUNCIL,
Having regard to the Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community
and their Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part, and in particular Article 463 thereof,
Whereas:
(1) The Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their
Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part (1) (‘the Agreement’) was signed on 21 March and
27 June 2014 and entered into force on 1 September 2017.
(2) The Preamble to the Agreement recognises the Parties' desire to move the reform and approximation process
forward in Ukraine, thus contributing to the gradual economic integration and deepening of political association
as well as to achieving economic integration through extensive regulatory approximation. The Preamble also
refers to the Parties' commitment to enhancing energy security by, inter alia, increasing market integration and
regulatory approximation towards key elements of the EU acquis.
(3) Furthermore, the bilateral Memorandum of Understanding on a Strategic Energy Partnership between the
European Union and Ukraine of 24 November 2016 recognises that the goal of intensified cooperation in the
energy field and of energy sector reform is full integration of the energy markets of the Union and Ukraine.
(4) Article 1 of the Agreement refers to the objective of supporting Ukraine's efforts to complete the transition to
a functioning market economy by means of, inter alia, the progressive approximation of its legislation to that of
the Union.
(5) According to Article 273 of the Agreement, the Parties are to adapt their legislation, as referred to in
Annex XXVII to the Agreement, in order to ensure that all conditions for transport of electricity and gas are
objective, reasonable, transparent and non-discriminatory.
(6) Furthermore, with a view to making progress towards market integration, Article 337 of the Agreement provides
that the Parties continue and intensify their cooperation on energy matters, including through gradual approxi
mation in the energy sector.
(7) Article 341 of the Agreement sets out that gradual approximation in the energy sector shall proceed in
accordance with a timetable as set out in Annex XXVII to the Agreement.
(8) Article 474 of the Agreement reiterates the general commitment of Ukraine to carry out gradual approximation
of its legislation to Union law, including in the energy sector.
(9) The EU acquis in the energy sector has substantially evolved since the conclusion of negotiation of the
Agreement, as have Ukraine's obligations arising from the implementation of the Agreement and its membership
of the Energy Community Treaty. This evolution needs to be reflected in Annex XXVII to the Agreement which
should therefore be updated.
(1) OJ L 161, 29.5.2014, p. 3.27.9.2019 EN Official Journal of the European Union L 248/89
(10) Article 475 of the Agreement defines in general terms the monitoring of progress in the approximation of
Ukrainian law to Union law, including aspects of implementation and enforcement. It provides that the reporting
and assessment process will take into account specific modalities defined in the Agreement or decisions by the
institutional bodies established under the Agreement.
(11) In order to ensure more effective implementation of reforms by Ukraine, it is necessary to strengthen the
monitoring mechanism for energy sector reform so that the reforms achieved have an irreversible character and
contribute thereby in a lasting way to the modernisation of the energy sector.
(12) Pursuant to Article 463(1) and (3) of the Agreement, the Association Council has the power to take decisions for
the purpose of attaining the objectives of the Agreement. In particular, it may update or amend the Annexes to
the Agreement, taking into account the evolution of Union law and applicable standards set out in international
instruments deemed relevant by the Parties.
(13) The Association Council is therefore to amend Annex XXVII to the Agreement in order to provide for more
detailed rules for monitoring the approximation of Ukrainian law to Union law in the energy sector. To that end,
appropriate provisions strengthening the monitoring process should be included in Annex XXVII to the
Agreement,
