No. KYIV-183-2020
This verbal note replaces note KYIV-180-2020.
The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands presents its compliments to the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine and has the honour to refer to the Agreement between
the Kingdom of the Netherlands and Ukraine on the International Mission for Protection
of Investigation, done at Kiev on July 28, 2014 (“the Agreement”), which was concluded
for one year and has been prolonged five times with one year each, through an exchange
of Notes, on June 3, 2015, August 1, 2016, August 1, 2017, July 23, 2018, and August
1, 2019.
In order to accommodate any unforeseen activity that may still occur as a result of
the events that led to the Agreement and that may have to be executed within the framework
of the mandate of the mission on the territory of Ukraine, the Kingdom of the Netherlands
proposes that the Agreement be extended for an additional period of one year, so that
the Agreement will remain in force until August 1, 2021.
If the foregoing is acceptable to Ukraine, the Kingdom of the Netherlands proposes
that this Note, together with an affirmative Note in reply from Ukraine, shall constitute
an Agreement (in the form of an exchange of Notes) between the Kingdom of the Netherlands
and Ukraine on the extension until August 1, 2021 of the Agreement between the Kingdom
of the Netherlands and Ukraine on the International Mission for Protection of Investigation
of July 28, 2014, which shall enter into force on the date of the receipt of the last
written notification concerning the completion by the Parties of their internal procedures
required for this Agreement to enter into force.
