3. <a id="p100073"></a>In order to address the specific situation of the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the Union and Euratom, the Withdrawal Agreement provides for a time-limited transition period during which, save certain very limited exceptions, Union law shall be applicable to and in the United Kingdom and that any reference to Member States in Union law, including as implemented and applied by Member States, shall be understood as including the United Kingdom.

<a id="p100063"></a>Upon signature:
<a id="p100044"></a>"India continues to believe that a Convention on Nuclear Safety should cover all nuclear power plants, civil and military. We note, however, that the present convention covers only civilian nuclear power plants. We hope that the safety aspects of nuclear power plants in the military domain would also be given attention, to achieve comprehensive nuclear safety worldwide."

<a id="p100056"></a>"[...] - The ratification of the Convention by the Syrian Arab Republic shall not imply in any way whatsoever recognition of Israel, entry into direct or indirect relations with it, or involvement with it in any activities governed by the provisions of the Convention.

### <a id="p100035"></a>Ukraine

<a id="p100080"></a>**ratified 08 Apr 1998**
<a id="p100065"></a>Upon ratification:
<a id="p100036"></a>8 April 1998
<a id="p100037"></a>"1. The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine has taken the responsible decision to ratify the Convention on Nuclear Safety, confirming its commitment to the principles of the nuclear safety culture and ensuring their practical implementation, and trusting that the world community and Member States of the IAEA realize the uniqueness of the "Shelter" remaining in Ukraine as a result of the global consequences of the Chernobyl catastrophe.
<a id="p100038"></a>At present no technologies exist for transforming the "Shelter" into an ecologically safe system, nor has the set of necessary measures been defined for achieving the high level of nuclear safety of the facility in accordance with the requirements of the Convention.
<a id="p100039"></a>Under these circumstances, Ukraine is not able by itself to resolve this large-scale problem in the shortest possible time and is counting on the assistance of the IAEA, international organizations and individual States in tackling the scientific and technological issues involved in ensuring the safety of the "Shelter", which will in turn help achieve the objectives of the Convention on Nuclear Safety.
2. <a id="p100040"></a>The provision of Article 3 of the Convention shall not apply to the "Shelter"."
