我最近在莫斯科与华沙做了几场演讲。今天,俄罗斯与波兰都极力鼓吹那些支撑司法独立的宪法条款,虽然它们的确令人印象深刻,但在每一个地方我都忠告,仅有宪法上的条款是不够的。法律统治要得到真正保障,一国的人民必须对这个问题——为什么法官真正独立于国家是如此重要——有广泛的共同理解。这是本文关注的全部。 I recently made several speeches in Moscow and Warsaw. Today, both Russia and Poland are strongly advocating the constitutional provisions that support the independence of the judiciary. Although they are indeed impressive, I have advised everywhere that constitutional provisions alone are not enough. The rule of law is to be truly guaranteed, and the people of a country must have a broad common understanding of the issue - why judges are truly independent of the country. This is the focus of this article.
