• Resumen

  • President Juncker wanted the Commission to be "more political", focusing its policies on key challenges. The aim of this article is to take stock of the consequences of the "more political approach"of the Juncker Commission in the area of infringement procedures. It analyses in particular the Commission's Communication "EUlaw: Better results through better application"of 2017, in which the Commission announced a strategic approach towards infringement management and a stricter application of the sanction scheme of art.260(3) TFEU. Following that, an analysis will be offered of key proceedings before the Court of Justice which either reflect or are likely to have an impact on the strategic approach taken by the Juncker Commission
