According to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, which statement accurately distinguishes the legal consequences of the prohibitions under Article 101 from those under Article 102? A The European Parliament holds exclusive competence to declare agreements automatically void under Article 101, while the Council is responsible for imposing sanctions for abuses of dominance under Article 102. B Article 102 explicitly mandates that any contract facilitating an abuse of dominance is automatically void, ensuring immediate legal nullity for all parties involved, mirroring the consequences of Article 101. C Agreements prohibited under Article 101 are automatically void, whereas Article 102 prohibits the abuse of a dominant position without explicitly stipulating automatic voidness. D Under the pre-Lisbon framework, Article 82 TEC allowed for the automatic voidness of abusive contracts, whereas Article 81 TEC required a positive decision declaring an agreement inapplicable before it could be enforced, reversing the current legal framework.
