Important ruling in connection to Poland’s rule of law crisis. Tbomk first time this is clearly outlined as such by the CJEU.

medelnet.eu/medels-40th-... From Medel's visionary project of a united #Europe built on #peace, #democracy #fundamentalrights and #solidarity to the challenges we face in defending our common values👇

« As we face today’s complex challenges, our task is not to weaken the Convention, but to keep it strong and relevant — to ensure that liberty and security, justice and responsibility, are held in balance. That is the legacy we inherit. And it is the duty we share »

« The ECtHR is not an external body. It is the legal arm of the Council of Europe — created by our member states, established by sovereign choice, and bound by a Convention that all 46 members have freely signed and ratified. It exists to protect the rights and values they committed to defend »

Glad to see this piece out. It is based on conversations with many Polish judges and other friends. It relies centrally on the vision of my colleague @kimlanelaw.bsky.social, who was the first to show that binding international and EU law provides a way to escape a national constitutional prison.

⚖️ The top EU court issued an important ruling on judicial pay last Tuesday, setting a key precedent. In this blog post on Verfassungsblog, I examine why Hungary’s judicial salaries falls short of EU requirements and argue that both the European Commission and Hungarian judges should act.

The ECtHR recently heard three cases involving pushbacks in the context of Belarus' alleged migrant instrumentalisation. ALEKSANDRA ANCITE-JEPIFÁNOVA on why the Court must resist the attempt to undermine the Convention’s human rights protections in this context. verfassungsblog.de/eu-belarus-b...
