51So, although Regulation No 2580/2001, taken together with Common Position 2001/931, is intended essentially to permit the Council to impose certain restrictions on individuals’ rights, with a view to, and in the name of, combating international terrorism, the provisions of that regulation and that common position, which set forth exhaustively the conditions in which such restrictions are permitted, such as Article 2(3) of the regulation read in conjunction with Article 1(4) of the common position, are, a contrario, intended essentially to protect the interests of the individuals concerned, by limiting the cases of application, and the extent or degree of the restrictive measures that may lawfully be imposed on those individuals.
