"The Council Decision of 27 November 2001 on the association of the overseas countries and territories with the European Community establishes the legal framework for promoting the economic and social development of the overseas countries and territories and for enhancing economic relations between them and the European Union. This decision applies until 31 December 2013. Annex IA of that decision must therefore be amended to take account of the change of status with regard to the European Union of the island of Saint-Barthélemy, which became an overseas country or territory as of 1 January 2012. I believe that this change in status satisfies the needs and special characteristics of the territory of Saint-Barthélemy without prejudicing the interests of the European Union. I therefore consider it reasonable to approve the Commission’s proposal. This change in status will enable Saint-Barthélemy to consolidate its relations with regional players, including the other overseas countries and territories, ACP countries and outermost regions of the Caribbean, and will thus help to disseminate the European model and European values."@en1
