The next step could be the European Court of Justice
After months of warnings and wrangling, the governing European Commission will officially censure France, Greece and Sweden this week due to moves by those nations to effectively create a state monopoly in sports gambling, according to Agence France-Presse.
Greece is set to receive only an initial warning; however, both France and Sweden will be issued final warnings, before being taken to the bodies' highest court - the European Court of Justice.
The European Union's executive arm will give final warnings to Paris and Stockholm on Wednesday before taking them to the European Court of Justice, the sources said.
The Commission also has cases underway against Austria, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Hungary, Italy and the Netherlands. |
