Judgment_paragraph 49 · Safa Nicu Sepahan Co. v Council of the European Union (C-45/15 P)

49In that regard, it must be stated at the outset that, in deciding, on the basis of an assessment of the circumstances of the case, that financial reparation was necessary to ensure full reparation for the non-material damage suffered by Safa Nicu Sepahan, the General Court made an assessment that was not vitiated by an error of law. While the Court of Justice held, in the judgment of 28 May 2013, Abdulrahim v Council and Commission (C‑239/12 P, EU:C:2013:331), that the annulment of unlawful restrictive measures is capable of constituting a form of reparation for non-material damage suffered, it does not follow from this that that form of reparation is necessarily sufficient, in every case, to ensure full reparation for such damage.
