The European Commission has welcomes the judgment of the EU Court of Justice (case C-280/08), dismissing Deutsche Telekom's appeal against a judgement of the General Court, which had upheld a Commission decision of 2003 finding that Deutsche Telekom had squeezed its competitors out of the market by charging abusive prices to access German homes. This ruling is important because it confirms the Commission's action against dominant undertakings which pursue a margin squeeze policy. It also underlines that decisions of national regulators do not shield dominant companies from respecting competition rules. |
