🗣 "We not only have no progress, there is active resistance to the reforms" – head of the DEJURE Foundation on reforming the Supreme Court
One vote was missing to start the process of filling vacancies on the Supreme Court without international experts, said DEJURE Foundation Executive Director Mykhailo Zhernakov. According to him, the judiciary is not just sabotaging the EU integration reform plan, which has been completed by barely 15% in a year, but is actively opposing it.
💬 "A plenary session was held at the Supreme Court recently, at which one vote was lacking to launch the process of filling vacancies without international experts. We committed to the EU, it is written black on white there: involving international experts in the reform. We have 50 vacancies here, even more now, and this is a great chance for renewal if they are selected properly with the internationals. But if they are filled now in a rush, we close off the possibility of any Supreme Court renewal for decades. And here the judges gather and say: listen, let's appeal to the High Qualification Commission of Judges, let them fill these positions immediately, so that no reform will ever affect us," Zhernakov said.
