European Parliament to vote on resolution addressing rule of law concerns in Slovakia

The European Parliament will vote on a resolution concerning the state of rule of law in Slovakia, with the country facing potential loss of European Union funding. The proposed resolution warns that deficiencies in judicial independence and audit systems directly threaten EU financial interests. The text calls on the European Commission to fully utilize all available tools to address these concerns and ensure compliance with values enshrined in EU treaties. The resolution could lead to preventive measures initially, with the possibility of more coercive steps later if issues remain unresolved.
