149In the present case, it is clear that the Commission’s interpretation in the contested decision to the effect that a practice of squeezing margins is contrary to Article 102 TFEU was reasonably foreseeable at the time when the offence was committed. It follows that such an interpretation was foreseeable as a result of Decision 88/518 (Napier Brown) and the Deutsche Telekom decision, as well as the foreseeable negative effects which the practice of squeezing margins would have on competition, as the General Court was correct to point out at paragraphs 358 to 362 of the judgment under appeal.
