35It should also be noted that, under Article 14 of Regulation 659/1999 ‘where negative decisions are taken in cases of unlawful aid, the Commission shall decide that the Member State concerned shall take all necessary measures to recover the aid from the beneficiary’. The withdrawal of unlawful aid by means of recovery is the logical consequence of a finding that it is unlawful. The aim of obliging the State concerned to abolish aid found by the Commission to be incompatible with the internal market is to restore the previous situation (see judgment of 5 August 2003, P & O European Ferries (Vizcaya) and Diputación Foral de Vizcaya v Commission, T‑116/01 and T‑118/01, EU:T:2003:217, paragraph 223 and the case-law cited), causing the beneficiary to forfeit the advantage which it had enjoyed over its competitors (see judgments of 7 March 2002, Italy v Commission, C‑310/99, EU:C:2002:143, paragraph 99 and the case-law cited, and of 29 April 2004, Germany v Commission, C‑277/00, EU:C:2004:238, paragraph 75 and the case-law cited; judgment of 15 June 2010, Mediaset v Commission, T‑177/07, EU:T:2010:233, paragraph 169).
