A representative of the Superior Council of Magistracy condemns the statements of Deputy Prime Minister Oana Gheorghiu that undermine the independence and credibility of the judiciary.

Alin Ene, judge and representative of the CSM, reacted to the comments of Deputy Prime Minister Oana Gheorghiu, who attacked the independence of the judiciary, stating that this escalates the anti-justice rhetoric within the governing coalition. Ene emphasizes that simplistic labeling and the minimization of judges' status are unacceptable in a democracy, and the independence of the judiciary is essential for protecting citizens' rights.

He rejects comparisons between magistrates' incomes and social needs, considering them manipulative and harmful. The judge warns that such statements can lead to social antagonisms and collective resentment, emphasizing that the Government should respect and protect the judiciary. His reaction comes after Gheorghiu described magistrates' pensions as a "Caritas" that cannot continue, suggesting that they affect budgets for education and health.
