Judgment_paragraph 53 · GM and ON v PR (C-109/23)

53First of all, as is apparent from recital 8 of Decision 2022/1909 and recital 2 of Regulation No 833/2014, new restrictive measures, which include the prohibition on providing legal advisory services, were introduced to counter ‘Russia’s illegal actions and further increase pressure on Russia to end its war of aggression’ and ‘with a view to increasing the costs of Russia’s actions to undermine Ukraine’s territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence and to promoting a peaceful settlement of the crisis’. That being so, it is not apparent from that decision, that regulation or Regulation 2022/1904 that, by imposing that prohibition, the Council, which adopted those acts, intended to ensure that, as a result of that prohibition, legal persons established in Russia would be unable, in certain Member States, to dispose of their immovable property.
