Bulgaria- SJC describes EC interim report as objective

The Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) describes the European Commission’s interim report on Bulgaria’s progress in the cooperation and verification mechanism as objective, realistic and proper, the SJC press center announced.

SJC’s practice to monitor the high-profile cases is assessed positively. The Council is certain that more insistent measures and recommendations will discipline the process and lead to the end of the trials within reasonable deadlines and that a rise in the sentences in the trials the EC observes will be reported in the next months.
