   The applicant claims that the Court should:
   
               —
            
            
               annul the amended Annex to the Commission Implementing Decision of 7.11.2013 on the Annual Action Programme 2013 in favour of Myanmar/Burma to be financed from the general budget of the European Union adopted on 16 December 2014; and
            
         
               —
            
            
               order the European Commission to pay for the costs.
            
         
      Pleas in law and main arguments
   
   In support of the action, the applicant relies on seven pleas in law.
   
               1.
            
            
               First plea in law, alleging that the Commission failed to demonstrate that the applicant did not comply with the requirements provided in Article 53(d)(l) of the 2002 Financial Regulation (1) and Article 60(2) of the 2012 Financial Regulation (2).
            
         
               2.
            
            
               Second plea in law, alleging that there were no changes to the standards applied in the applicant’s account, audit, internal control or procurement systems that would justify a decision by the European Commission to conclude that the applicant could no longer be entrusted with budget implementation tasks.
            
         
               3.
            
            
               Third plea in law, alleging that the Commission failed to fulfil its obligation to respect principles of good administration and sound financial management.
            
         
               4.
            
            
               Fourth plea in law, alleging that the Commission breached its obligations related to the principle of transparency.
            
         
               5.
            
            
               Fifth plea in law, alleging that the Commission failed to provide the applicant with a route to redress.
            
         
               6.
            
            
               Sixth plea in law, alleging that Commission failed in its duty to give reasons.
            
         
               7.
            
            
               Seventh plea in law, alleging that the adoption of the contested measures constitutes a breach of the applicant’s right to legitimate expectation.
