72As a preliminary point, it should be noted that that question is relevant, for the purposes of the dispute in the main proceedings, only if the referring court were to conclude that WS does not qualify for refugee status. Since, in accordance with Article 13 of Directive 2011/95, Member States are to grant that status to applicants who satisfy the requirements of that directive, without having any discretion in that respect (see, to that effect, judgments of 24 June 2015, T., C‑373/13, EU:C:2015:413, paragraph 63, and of 14 May 2019, M and Others (Revocation of refugee status), C‑391/16, C‑77/17 and C‑78/17, EU:C:2019:403, paragraph 89), it is only in that situation that it would still be necessary to ascertain whether WS should be granted subsidiary protection status.
