(2)On 16 December 2022, the Council adopted Decision (CFSP) 2022/2479note, amending Decision 2014/145/CFSP. Decision (CFSP) 2022/2479 introduced a new deadline for the derogation allowing the divestment by a specific listed entity. That new deadline does not retroactively validate divestments not compliant with the necessary requirements under Regulation (EU) No 269/2014, such as unauthorised divestments after the entity was listed. Decision (CFSP) 2022/2479 also extended to two newly listed entities the derogation from the asset freeze and from the prohibition to make funds and economic resources available, in order to allow the termination of operations, contracts, or other agreements, previously concluded with those entities. In order to further address food security concerns in third countries, Decision (CFSP) 2022/2479 introduced a new derogation allowing to unfreeze assets of, and to make funds and economic resources available to, certain individuals who held a significant role in international trade in agricultural and food products, including wheat and fertilisers, prior to their listing. To avoid circumvention, national competent authorities are entrusted with authorising such operations.In doing so, they should act in close cooperation with the Commission, in order to ensure a uniform implementation across the Union. National competent authorities can take inspiration from the United Nations and World Food Programme priorities to tackle food insecurity around the globe. That derogation is without prejudice to other restrictive measures imposed by the Union on Russia and on other countries and to the respective national security concerns of Member States.
