82That interpretation is not in breach of the obligation to interpret Article 2(1) and (3) of the basic regulation in line with Article 2.2 of the anti-dumping agreement. It is true that the primacy of international agreements concluded by the European Union over secondary EU legislation requires that the latter be interpreted, as far as possible, in a manner consistent with those agreements (judgment of 20 January 2022, Commission v Hubei Xinyegang Special Tube, C‑891/19 P, EU:C:2022:38, paragraph 31 and the case-law cited). However, as was also noted by the Advocate General in point 108 of his Opinion, the anti-dumping agreement does not contain a provision similar to Article 2(1) of the basic regulation, which has no connection with the circumstance, covered by Article 2.2 of the anti-dumping agreement, of an absence of sales.
