Abstract

The Judgment of the CJEU (Third Chamber) regarding to the case McCarthy denies as a beneficiary of Directive 2004/38/EC and the application of art. 21 TFEU to a national of a Member State who has never exercised his right to freedom of movement and has always resided in the Member State of his nationality, despite he is also a national of another Member State. The Court based the decision on the Article 3(1) of Directive 2004/38 which must be interpreted as meaning that that Directive is not applicable to that Union citizen and to the spouse. On the other hand, Article 21 TFEU is not applicable to a Union citizen in that ituation, provided that the situation of that citizen does not include the application of measures by a Member State that would have the effect of depriving him of the genuine enjoyment of the substance of the rights conferred by virtue of his status as a Union citizen or of impeding the exercise of his right of free movement and residence within the territory of the Member States.
