Avrupa Birliği Hukukunun Yapısından Kaynaklanan Uluslararası Yatırım Hukukuna İlişkin Sorunlar

Lizbon Antlaşması’nın doğrudan yatırım konusunu devredilen münhasır yetkiler kapsamına almasıyla birlikte Avrupa Birliği Hukukunun yapısından kaynaklanan özelliklerden dolayı Avrupa Birliği üyelerinin mevcut iki taraflı yatırım antlaşmaları ve hem Avrupa Birliği’nin hem de Avrupa Birliği üyesi ülkelerin taraf olduğu Enerji Şartı Antlaşması’nın durumu tartışmalı hale gelmiştir. Özellikle bu antlaşmalarda yer alan tahkim düzenlemelerinin Avrupa Birliği Adalet Divanı ile ilişkisi incelenmesi gereken konulardan biri olmuştur. Çalışma bu konulara ilişkin sorunları gerek hakem kararları gerekse Adalet Divanı’nın karar ve görüşleri ışığında tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Uluslararası yatırım hukuku, Avrupa Birliği Hukuku, İki taraflı yatırım antlaşmaları, Enerji Şartı Antlaşması, Avrupa Birliği Adalet Divanı
