🇬🇧 English

This decision funds EU support for wider adoption and stronger implementation of the International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrorism. It is part of the EU’s broader work to reduce the risk that terrorist groups or other non-State actors gain access to nuclear or radioactive materials. The practical impact is mainly on EU foreign and security policy bodies, UN partners such as UNODC and UNOCT, and non-EU countries receiving technical support. Businesses are not given direct new compliance duties, but nuclear, radioactive-material, transport, border-security, and security-sensitive sectors may see stronger international controls and capacity-building in partner countries.
