Avertismentul șefei Comisiei de la Veneția, chiar de la CCR: „Instituţiile democratice sunt întotdeauna afectate de slăbirea independenţei sistemului de justiţie”

Marta Cartabia, President of the Venice Commission, emphasized the impact of judicial independence on democratic institutions during her visit to Romania's Constitutional Court. The meeting focused on updating the Rule of Law Checklist to include constitutional review criteria. Cartabia highlighted the importance of making this checklist accessible to all citizens, not just legal experts, as it affects daily life. She noted that constitutional courts play a crucial role in upholding European values and democracy. The updated checklist aims to address current challenges, including new technologies.
