Strong institutions, credible elections, and respect for the rule of law are the foundation of what we call democratic security. Avoiding double standards is paramount for the credibility of our system. #VeniceCommission #RuleOfLaw #Democracy #CouncilOfEurope #DemocraticSecurity
The updated #RuleofLaw Checklist of the #VeniceCommission has been published, produced after the 2023 @coe.int
Summit called for greater visibility of and support for the Checklist. The update i.a. gives more attention to civic actors as counterveiling powers.

Pleased to share my new op-ed on Verfassungsblog.
Ukraine’s judiciary reformers never rest — but perhaps that’s the problem.
I unpack the latest Venice Commission Opinion and call for a shift in Ukraine’s reformist narrative.

One of Europe’s leading advisory bodies for legal and constitutional matters turns 35 this year: Happy birthday, Venice Commission, and best wishes! #CouncilOfEurope #VeniceCommission
Happy 35th Anniversary to the #VeniceCommission! 🎉
Congratulations on an astonishing record of impact. This unique #CouncilofEurope institution is needed more than ever as we see efforts to unravel the #RuleofLaw.
Member states should strongly support this unique global institution!
"35 years ago, Europe chose to give democracy a voice grounded in law".
SG @alain-berset.coe.int paid tribute - in the presence of President Sergio Mattarella - to the #VeniceCommission, our constitutional conscience and global defender of #Democracy, #HumanRights, and the #RuleOfLaw.
Great to be in Venice! I outlined my four priorities and how the #CoE #VeniceCommission and my office serve as complementary #HumanRights actors. While they develop the legal standards, I focus on seeing the law applied and honoured on the ground.

SG @alain-berset.coe.int: Music needs no translation. It speaks directly to the heart and it brings us together.
Tonight in Venice, we celebrate 35 years of the #VeniceCommission - a beacon for #Democracy, #HumanRights and the #RuleOfLaw.
