Question referred

Must Council Directive 2008/118/EC of 16 December 2008 concerning the general arrangements for excise duty and repealing Directive 92/12/EEC, (2) in particular Articles 7 and 8 thereof, and/or Council Directive (EU) 2020/262 of 19 December 2019 laying down the general arrangements for excise duty (recast), (3) be interpreted as precluding national practice (and legislation) which provides for an obligation to pay excise duty on energy products where the excise goods have not been used and an excise duty liability has been established in respect of goods stated in falsified invoices for the purchase of energy products which, precisely because they have been falsified, do not give rise to the right to deduct input VAT because there are fictitious supplies of energy products, as has also been finally established in criminal proceedings?
