33It is apparent from paragraphs 37 to 39 of the judgment in TNT Post UK (C‑357/07, EU:C:2009:248) that the difference between ‘public postal services’ and other operators depends not on the nature of the services provided but on the fact that the operators who provide part or all of the universal postal service are subject to a special legal regime with specific obligations. As stated in paragraph 30 above, Posten AB is indeed subject to such obligations.
