      Question referred
   
   Must the principle of sincere cooperation as laid down in Article 4(3) TEU, in conjunction with the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union, as laid down in Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 (1) of the Council of 29 February 1968, be interpreted as precluding the legislation of a Member State not permitting the military service which a worker has carried out in a Member State to be taken into account in the calculation of that worker’s retirement pension on the basis of his performance in that Member State, because at the time of his military service and subsequently as well, the person concerned was uninterruptedly an official of the European Union, and consequently, does not satisfy the conditions for equivalence as laid down in the legislation of that Member State?
   
      (1)  Regulation (EEC, Euratom, ECSC) No 259/68 of the Council of 29 February 1968 laying down the Staff Regulations of Officials and the Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Communities and instituting special measures temporarily applicable to officials of the Commission (OJ 1968, L 56, p. 1).
