The applicants seek the annulment of Council Regulation (EU) 2022/1273 of 21 July 2022 amending Regulation (EU) No 269/2014 concerning restrictive measures in respect of actions undermining or threatening the territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence of Ukraine. They claimed that such measures should be within the powers of EU Member States, not the EU Council. Specifically, they contended that the obligations amounted to a misuse of power and should not be regarded as necessary for implementing decisions under the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP).
