Laura Codruţa Kovesi concludes her seven-year term as the head of the European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO), leaving behind investigations worth €67 billion. She warns of potential pressures and challenges facing the institution, including insufficient funding and legislative delays. Kovesi emphasizes the need for resources to maintain EPPO's independence and credibility, highlighting the importance of combating cross-border fraud. She criticizes the attitudes of some politicians towards legal investigations, noting that support for judicial independence wanes when personal interests are at stake. Despite difficulties, she believes EPPO has proven its capability to protect the EU budget.
