128On the other hand, it should also be borne in mind that, as is apparent from the case-law of the Court, in order to ensure that the specific characteristics and the autonomy of the EU legal order are preserved, the Treaties have established a judicial system intended to ensure consistency and uniformity in the interpretation of EU law. In that context, Article 19 TEU, which, as recalled in paragraph 69 above, gives concrete expression to the value of the rule of law affirmed in Article 2 TEU, entrusts the responsibility for ensuring the full application of EU law in all Member States and the judicial protection that individuals derive from EU law to national courts and tribunals and to the Court of Justice (see, to that effect, judgments of 24 October 2018, XC and Others, C‑234/17, EU:C:2018:853, paragraphs 39 and 40 and the case-law cited, and of 2 March 2021, A.B. and Others (Appointment of judges to the Supreme Court – Actions), C‑824/18, EU:C:2021:153, paragraph 108 and the case-law cited).
