Valentina R., lawyer
(2016/C 191/19)
Language of the case: Latvian
Applicant: VAS ‘Starptautiskā lidosta “Rīga”’
Defendant: Konkurences padome
1.Must Articles 102 and 107(1) TFEU be interpreted as meaning that one and the same action of a State-owned undertaking may simultaneously be analysed from the point of view of the existence of State aid (as regards the possible grant of State aid to a client or trading partner) and from the point of view of abuse of a dominant position (discriminatory pricing)?
2.Is there any order for or hierarchy of these two analyses?
3.May a public authority or court considering a case on infringement of competition rules with regard to the application of discriminatory pricing to the clients or trading partners of a State-owned undertaking declare that the actions of an economic operator infringe Article 102 TFEU if that infringement arises as a result of State aid being granted without complying with the preliminary examination procedure laid down in Article 108(3) TFEU?
