80In accordance with Article 52(3) of the Charter, in so far as the Charter contains rights which correspond to rights guaranteed by the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, signed in Rome on 4 November 1950, the meaning and scope of those rights are to be the same as those laid down by that convention. This provision does not, however, prevent EU law from providing more extensive protection. It follows that, for the purposes of interpreting Article 17 of the Charter, it is necessary to take into account the case-law of the European Court of Human Rights relating to Article 1 of Protocol No 1, which establishes the protection of the right to property, as the minimum threshold of protection (see, to that effect, judgment of 21 May 2019, Commission v Hungary (Usufruct over agricultural land), C‑235/17, EU:C:2019:432, paragraph 72 and the case-law cited).
