Adopting the specified implementing acts, in accordance with Article 9 (2).

The Treaty of Lisbon, an amending treaty that entered into force on 1 December 2009, marked a significant milestone in the evolution of the European Union (EU). Rather than creating a new Union, the Treaty of Lisbon aimed to amend the existing Treaties to better reflect the current state of the EU.

The Treaty of Lisbon further developed the Treaty on European Union (EU) and the Treaty establishing the European Community (EC). It merged the former European Community (EC) and the European Union (EU) into a unified European Union with its own legal personality.

One of the key changes brought about by the Treaty of Lisbon was the introduction of the European External Action Service (EEAS), a diplomatic service of the EU. This service was designed to strengthen the Union's foreign policy and ensure more effective representation on the global stage.

The Treaty of Lisbon also revised the voting rules in the Council of the European Union, giving more power to larger member states. This change was intended to make the decision-making process more efficient and reflect the relative sizes of the member states.

In terms of foreign policy, the Treaty of Lisbon regulates cooperation of member states within the foreign policy of the Union. It outlines values, objectives, institutions, enhanced cooperation, and foreign policy, including the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP).

The Treaty on European Union (EU) outlines the Union's values, objectives, institutions, enhanced cooperation, and foreign policy, including the CFSP. The Treaty of Lisbon, in its amended form, is commonly referred to as the treaties as amended in their new version.

The Treaty of Lisbon is available in PDF format, with a file size of 2 MB.

In conclusion, the Treaty of Lisbon serves as a testament to the EU's ongoing evolution and its commitment to adapting to the changing needs of its member states and the world at large. It has brought about significant changes in the EU's foreign policy, decision-making process, and structure, positioning the Union for a more effective and unified future.
