Pleas in law and main arguments
In support of the action, the applicant relies on three pleas in law.
|
1. |
First plea in law, alleging that the applicant does not meet the criteria for being listed in Annex IV, and its inclusion therein is unjustified in light of the objectives pursued by Articles 2, 2a and 2b and Annex IV of Regulation No 833/2014. |
|
2. |
Second plea in law, alleging the absence of a statement of reasons and the failure to provide access to the evidence file, which infringes Article 296 TFEU and entails a violation of the applicant’s rights of defence. |
|
3. |
Third plea in law, alleging that the listing of the applicant constitutes a disproportionate interference with the freedom to conduct business, contrary to Articles 16 and 52 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights. |
