". Every citizen of the Union shall, in the territory of a third country in which the Member State of which he or she is a national is not represented, be entitled to consular assistance from any Member State which is represented in that country, on the same conditions as the nationals of that State. This is stipulated in Article 20(2)(c) and Article 23 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and in Article 46 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union. The coordination of assistance, primarily through the establishment of ‘Lead States’ in third countries, which is described in the new directive, is aimed at improving the effectiveness of functioning in instances of consular protection both in routine matters and in crisis situations. The access to a diplomatic authority defined in the conclusion on the directive, which will enable it to be accessed with a round trip feasible within one day, is a good solution, particularly in urgent and common situations (e.g. theft or loss of documents, death or arrest). The obligation of the Union delegation to coordinate and provide assistance regarding the preparation for and in case of a crisis distinctly lightens the load for the ‘Lead State’ nominated in the third country for this purpose, and for any other Member State that has a presence there. In the light of the above, I consider these changes to be both necessary and remarkably helpful for all EU citizens."@en1
