Procedural Posture

Appeal / Final Judgment

  1. 1 Whether the Council was competent to adopt the contested restrictive measures against Bank of Industry and Mine
  2. 2 Whether the legal basis for the measures was valid under EU law
  3. 3 Whether the measures violated principles of legal certainty, proportionality, and the right to property

Ratio Decidendi

The Court held that the Council was competent to adopt the restrictive measures, that the legal basis was valid, that the measures did not violate principles of legal certainty, proportionality, or the right to property, that the obligation to state reasons was fulfilled, that the periodic review requirement was met, and that the claim of discrimination was inadmissible as it was not raised before the General Court. The appeal was therefore rejected in its entirety.
