Abstract

The main aim of this contribution is to explore the impact of the ECJ's Kadi judgment on the international obligations of EC Member States and the EC/EU. The focus will be on Article 307 EC.

It will be argued that EC Member States can under no circumstances rely on Article 307 EC in order to abrogate basic fundamental rights as protected with the European legal order in order to implement UN Security Council Resolutions.

Keywords: Article 307 EC, pre-accession treaties, UN Security Council Resolutions, sanctions, fundamental rights, Behrami
