While the Commissioner for Justice of the European Commission called on the remaining member states, including Hungary, to join the European Public Prosecutor's Office, the organization's chief prosecutor cited Hungary as a positive example in his statement, which, although it was not willing to join, has so far responded to all inquiries from the public prosecutor's office, writes the Index.
Chief Prosecutor Péter Polt, who recently proposed to the European Public Prosecutor's Office to act as a substitute private prosecutor in Hungarian criminal cases that harm the financial interests of the Union, confirmed that they are trying to respond to the requests of the European Public Prosecutor's Office as quickly as possible .
Justice Minister Judit Varga commented on the laudatory opinion on her social media page:
"Praise came from an unexpected place: although Hungary did not join the European Public Prosecutor's Office (it was not mandatory), it answered all its requests in a timely and accurate manner and was the first to conclude a cooperation agreement with it.
We are supporters of a partnership based on mutual respect on all European platforms!"
2022plus: The only problem is that Hungary has serious problems with the rule of law. Or not? It would be nice if they finally decided what we are obliged to believe about our country, because it does not work that we are worthy of praise and reproach at the same time. May God forbid that we join the European Public Prosecutor's Office, an organization that pats us on the back (which is fine, but doesn't mean anything), but would run us into the ground if it could. Numerous examples prove (it is enough to think of Romania) that wherever it takes place, there is indeed a political witch hunt. So thanks, but I'd rather not.
