On 30 April 2004, the European Commission and the Chilean mission to the European Communities have initialled a protocol adapting the EU-Chile Association Agreement to the enlargement of the European Union. The European Council approved a mandate on 22 December 2003 for the Commission to negotiate this protocol with Chile. These negotiations have been successfully concluded, and provided the EU-Chile Association Agreement with the technical adaptations needed to take into account the accession of the 10 new Member States. The agreement on this protocol shows the maturity of the EU-Chile relationship and the strong resolve of both parties to overcome obstacles and keep building a forward-looking partnership.
