37Accordingly, Regulation No 1408/71 continues to apply only to the extent that the bilateral conventions concluded before its entry into force do not impede its application (see, to that effect, Case 28/68 Torrekens [1969] ECR 125, paragraphs 19 to 21). However, an EU law provision which, like Article 7(2) of that regulation, gives precedence to the application of a bilateral convention, cannot have a purport that conflicts with the principles underlying the legislation of which it is part (see, by analogy, Case C-533/08 TNT Express Nederland [2010] ECR I-4107, paragraph 51).
