perusasetuksella

Perusasetuksella, also known as the Basic Agreement, is a fundamental document in the European Union (EU) that outlines the principles and procedures for the EU's functioning and the relationship between the EU institutions. It was established by the Maastricht Treaty, which entered into force on November 1, 1993. The Basic Agreement is not a treaty in the traditional sense, but rather a set of rules that govern the EU's day-to-day operations.

The Basic Agreement is composed of two parts: the Treaty on European Union (TEU) and the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). The TEU deals with the EU's institutions, decision-making processes, and the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality. The TFEU covers the EU's policies and the powers of the EU institutions in various areas, such as trade, agriculture, and social policy.

The Basic Agreement is the legal framework that allows the EU to function as a single market and to pursue common policies in areas such as competition, environmental protection, and security. It also provides for the possibility of further integration through the adoption of additional treaties, such as the Amsterdam Treaty and the Lisbon Treaty.

The Basic Agreement is subject to ratification by the member states, and any changes to it require the consent of a qualified majority of the member states. The Basic Agreement is the foundation of the EU's legal order, and it sets the rules for the EU's functioning and the relationship between the EU institutions.
