      Parties
   
   
      Applicant: HTTS Hanseatic Trade Trust & Shipping GmbH (Hamburg, Germany) (represented by: M. Schlingmann and M. Bever, lawyers)
   
      Defendant: Council of the European Union
   
      Form of order sought
   
   The applicant claims that the Court should:
   
               —
            
            
               Order the Council of the European Union to pay the applicant damages in the amount of EUR 2 516 221,50 for material and non-material loss suffered due to the inclusion of the applicant in the list of persons, entities and bodies in Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 423/2007 and in Annex VIII to Regulation (EU) No 961/2010;
            
         
               —
            
            
               Order the Council of the European Union to pay interest for late payment in the amount of two percent over the rate of interest set by the European Central Bank for the principal refinancing operation from 17 October 2015 until payment in full of the above amount;
            
         
               —
            
            
               Order the Council to pay the costs of the proceedings, including those incurred by the applicant.
            
         
      Pleas in law and main arguments
   
   In support of the action, the applicant relies on a single plea in law, according to which it claims that the Council — which unlawfully included it in the list of persons, entities and bodies all of whose funds and economic resources were frozen — infringed provisions which protect individual interests and which do not confer discretion on it.
   The applicant suffered material and non-material loss as a direct consequence of the restrictive measures that the Council unlawfully imposed on it.
