The Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights has spoken out regarding the Constitutional Tribunal. There are legal doubts.
The Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights questions the legal basis for the suspension of the President and Vice-President of the Constitutional Tribunal, warning of a dangerous precedent. They argue that the Tribunal has been in a deep crisis since 2015, affecting its independence and ability to protect human rights. The Foundation criticizes the recent decision as lacking clear legal grounds and highlights potential consequences that could allow future governments to manipulate the Tribunal's composition. They call for a constitutional reset to ensure the Tribunal's integrity and independence from political influence.
