47The action for annulment brought by the French Republic and SNCM against the decision at issue has no effect on the present proceedings. As appears from Article 278 TFEU, in the absence of a decision of the General Court to the contrary, such an action does not have suspensory effect (see judgment in Commission v France, C‑232/05, EU:C:2005:651, paragraph 60). Since the action for suspension of operation of the decision at issue brought by the French Republic was rejected on appeal by the Court of Justice, bringing an action for annulment by that Member State does not alter the enforceable nature of the decision at issue.
