Hungarian previous “opposition” journalist literally documenting their country moving away from basic, Western rule of law principles and descend into some subaltern backward non-European state is really, really sad. You got your “revolution” guys. #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #Journalism #HU
What is happening in Hungary is unprecedented in Europe since the fall of communism. Freedoms in Europe have been under attack but until now the legal system has upheld the rule of law. If it can happen in Hungary it can happen elsewhere. The EU can’t function like this for long. https://t.co/0fYz1m8wwU #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #EU #HU #EU
It was deeply moving to hear this speech from a distinguished jurist who has never been a politician, yet served as the President of Hungary before being unlawfully removed from office because he refused to comply - with the approval of Berlin and Brussels, as the new Prime https://t.co/8255KJXFeU #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #PoliticalJustice #HU #DE #BE
Today, the President of Hungary released a dramatic video message announcing that the democratic rule of law in Hungary has come to an end because he was unlawfully removed from office. Nothing like this has happened in modern European history. A puppet will now be installed in https://t.co/87azw1DROb #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #Democracy #HU
Utterly shocking but not a surprise. Impunity breeds hubris. All states and people who care for Freedom must rise up in defense of the ICC and int'l justice now, before it's too late. It's rule of law or barbarism. #ICC #InternationalJustice #RuleOfLaw #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.
Montenegro has its accession objective within reach. But getting there requires faster reforms, especially on the rule of law. With Prime Minister @MickeySpajic, I discussed the work needed to close the remaining open chapters. One of them is Chapter 27 on the environment.

Hungary’s Weimarization has begun. The government is using a constitutional amendment to remove the President through an ad hoc political decision disguised as a constitutional norm. One of the most basic principles of law is that what is unlawful from the outset cannot become https://t.co/9ReiXID73a #Hungary #Weimarization #RuleOfLaw #HU
At the World Congress of Constitutional Law in Bogota, Colombia, at the first plenary session, I ask whether the rule of law can be an obstacle to the restoration of democracy in the countries such as Poland, Hungary etc. https://t.co/bvDLe8pwlk #RuleOfLaw #Democracy #ConstitutionalLaw #CO #PL #HU
What is happening in Hungary right now is completely unprecedented in any EU member state. It very likely represents the beginnings of the collapse of the Rule of Law in the EU and its beginning unravelling. The thing about Peasant Revolutions is that they tend to spread. 🇭🇺 #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #PeasantRevolutions #HU #EU
If the government unlawfully removes the President of the Republic, then every law signed thereafter by the unlawfully installed successor will be open to constitutional challenge and its legal validity will be called into question. #ConstitutionalCrisis #RuleOfLaw #PoliticalAccountability #Therearenospecificcountrymentionsinthetweetyouprovided.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.
Not so fast with releasing Hungary's sequestered EU funds until it enacts the reforms that prevent it from be considered a rule of law country. #Hungary #RuleOfLaw #EUReforms #HU
President Meloni, I believe you. So let me turn back to you the question you posed to POTUS: why is there indulgence toward those who undermine the principles Italy claims to defend, while those invoking the Constitution, human rights, int'l law, are treated as a threat? #Italy #HumanRights #RuleOfLaw #IT
The European Commission has greenlighted Bulgaria's 4th payment request under NextGenerationEU🚀Thanks to the fulfillment of a number of investments and reforms with a focus on the rule of law and judicial reform, Bulgaria will receive nearly 1 billion € next month. 🇧🇬🇪🇺 #NextGenerationEU #Bulgaria #RuleOfLaw #BG #EU
The EU remains too weak and uncertain on Turkey. Democracy, the rule of law and fundamental freedoms are under attack. Silence is not neutrality. It is complicity. #Turkey #Democracy #RuleOfLaw #EU https://t.co/w9z77YEwTC #Turkey #Democracy #RuleOfLaw #EU #TR
Skupina právních odborníků podpořila odvolání vysokých veřejných činitelů jmenovaných během předchozích vlád Viktora Orbána, kteří se podle nich podíleli na zavádění autoritářského režimu a zhoršení právního státu, a doporučila, aby jakékoli změny byly provedeny transparentním způsobem s cílem obnovit systém kontrol a rovnováhy. #RuleOfLaw #Authoritarianism #PublicOfficials
The Rule of Law à la Carte: How the European Commission Applies Different Standards to Poland Depending on Who Is in Power (translated)
Being here in London, I’m reminded of a young man who lost his life. His name was Henry Nowak. People’s questions deserve answers. Every victim deserves dignity. And every citizen deserves to know that the same standards apply to everyone. That is what the rule of law means. https://t.co/uxv9g8Ajoz #RuleOfLaw #JusticeForHenry #VictimsDeserveDignity #GB
