- Description: Advocate General Tamara Capeta told the Court of Justice that goods can count as dual-use items under Regulation (EU) 2021/821 by capability, not design intent, in a case over Diamond Aircraft Industries' training-plane exports to Myanmar's air force, while requiring states to justify each refusal.

**What it does not test.** It does not establish a Court of Justice judgment; an Advocate General's opinion is advisory and the Court's own ruling is still to come.

**How this item counts.** No movement: no answer to who owns, who operates, whose law governs or who made the parts changes. Weight 0\. AG opinion only, advisory pending CJEU ruling; no answer changes yet. [European Sovereignty Index](https://sovereigntymonitor.eu/sovereignty-index/)
