Worldwide Judiciaries Express Solidarity to Polish Judge Tuleya

The International Association of Judges wishes to publicly express its gratitude to the informal network of judges that in just a few hours confirmed the total solidarity of judiciaries worldwide to the resilient pledge for independent and impartial courts manifested again by our Polish Colleagues.

This symbolic demonstration in defence of Rule of Law was demonstrated by the almost immediate translation into ten different languages of the letter signed by IAJ’s President, G.T. Pagone, regarding the official statement on the proceedings against the Polish judge Tuleya, endorsed unanimously by all the members of our Presidency Committee.

In our perspective this impressive example should be carefully taken in account by international organizations, particularly EU authorities, when dealing with the protection of European basic Principles on Rule of Law and Democracy.

All the ten versions are now available on our website under the following link:
