If the cookies are purely technical (say, login cookies), no.

If the cookies are used for tracking, like Google Analytics, then yes, it needs to ask the user for consent.

And that’s not a warning, but actual "yes/no", and in the no case, it may not set a tracking cookie, or have set a tracking cookie already.

Most sites (except for a few dozen German and Dutch ones) just redirect you somewhere else, though, if you refuse to be tracked.
