Operative part of the judgment

Article 3(1)(e) TFEU, which confers on the European Union an exclusive competence in the area of common commercial policy, read in conjunction with Article 2(1) TFEU,

must be interpreted as precluding, in the absence of an EU act requiring or prohibiting access to public procurement procedures of economic operators of a third country which has not concluded an international agreement referred to in Article 25 of Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 26 February 2014 on public procurement and repealing Directive 2004/18/EC, a contracting authority of a Member State from excluding an economic operator of such a third country on the basis of a legislative act that that Member State adopted without having been empowered to do so by the European Union, it being irrelevant in that regard that that legislative act entered into force after the publication of the contract notice.
