69Whatever the mechanism adopted for preventing or mitigating the imposition of a series of charges to tax or economic double taxation, the freedoms of movement guaranteed by the Treaty preclude a Member State from treating foreign-sourced dividends less favourably than nationally-sourced dividends, unless such a difference in treatment concerns situations which are not objectively comparable or is justified by overriding reasons in the public interest (see, to this effect, judgments in Lenz, C‑315/02, EU:C:2004:446, paragraphs 20 to 49; Manninen, C‑319/02, EU:C:2004:484, paragraphs 20 to 55; and Test Claimants in the FII Group Litigation, EU:C:2006:774, paragraph 46).
