Claudiu Sandu, a member of the Superior Council of Magistracy, calls the ECHR's decision on unpaid salaries for judges historic, highlighting its implications for the Romanian judiciary. He is involved in a lawsuit regarding salary rights against various judicial bodies. Sandu emphasizes that the ECHR ruling reflects a critical view of the Romanian judicial system and raises concerns about judges' impartiality when deciding on their own financial interests. He questions whether the Judicial Inspection will investigate the seven ECHR judges who unanimously made the ruling. Sandu also discusses the moral dilemmas faced by the government in delaying payments due to economic constraints, suggesting that such delays could be justified under certain circumstances, but not if they lead to discretionary spending.
