Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung together with Foreign Policy Association offer you a newsletter on foreign policy and European integration issues of the Republic of Moldova. The newsletter is part of the “Foreign Policy Dialogue” joint Project.
This edition of the Foreign Policy Newsletter examines the justice reform and the fight against corruption in the Republic of Moldova, navigating between necessity, political risks, and implementation challenges.
Justice reform: one step forward, two steps back
Topics of the edition:
– Alexandru Tănase, The former President of the Constitutional Court and Minister of Justice: Justice is an indispensable element of the rule of law that must deliver justice, not resonate with the political system.
– Mariana Rață, TV8 journalist: Von Hebel and PACCO: Black Marks on Justice Reform.
– Mariana Kalughin, anti-corruption expert: Any reform risks losing credibility if it is implemented in disregard of fundamental principles.
– Alexandr Berlinschii, Member of Parliament from Our Party: We must not have a televised justice system—or, even worse, a politicized one.
