5. Rejects without reservation and considers illegitimate the announcement by the IS leadership that it has established a caliphate in the areas it now controls; emphasises that the creation and expansion of the ‘Islamic caliphate’, as well as activities of other extremist groups in Iraq and Syria, is a direct threat to the security of European countries; rejects the notion of any unilateral changes of internationally recognised borders by force; stresses again that IS is subject to the arms embargo and assets freeze imposed by UN Security Council resolutions 1267 (1999) and 1989 (2011), and underlines the importance of prompt and effective implementation of those measures; calls on the Council to consider more effective use of the exis ...[+++]ting restrictive measures, and in particular to deny IS the benefits of illicit oil sales or sales of other resources on international markets; is deeply concerned about the assertions that actors in some Member States are engaged in illicit oil trade with IS; asks the Commission whether it can confirm these assertions and, if so, calls on the Commission and the Member States to ensure that the illicit oil trade is immediately brought to an end;

The Commission has also presented a number of proposals aimed at improving the safety of the sea-borne oil trade and prevent accidental oil spills. Notably to strengthen Port State Control and the control of Maritime administrations and classification societies and to accelerate the phasing-out of single-hull oil-tankers as proposed in the first “Erika” package of proposals.

The sinking of the oil tanker Erika off the French coast in December 1999 spurred new developments in the establishment of Europe's maritime safety policy. Three months after the accident, on 21 March 2000, the Commission adopted a ".Communication on the safety of the seaborne oil trade" together with a number of proposals for specific measures to prevent such accidents happening again.
