The fight of Polish judges against the judicial reforms of power

Linking the payment of European funds to the question of the rule of law: it is this Wednesday, February 16, 2022 that the Court of Justice of the European Union will decide, following the complaint of

Poland

and Hungary.

Warsaw is in the crosshairs of Brussels for its attacks on the independence of justice and its violations of European law and verdicts.

European of the week, Sergio Mattarella

In

Italy, 

the government now has free rein to devote itself to the implementation of the recovery plan.

The presidential election at the end of January 2022 almost led to a serious political crisis.

But finally Sergio Mattarella, the outgoing president was reappointed for a second term, at the age of 80.

By accepting, albeit reluctantly, this great servant of the Italian State guarantees the stability of the country until the legislative elections of 2023.
