During the meeting, Justice Minister said the vetting process is nearing completion, while judicial institutions are entering a new phase of development.

He added that the main challenge now is improving the quality of the system by ensuring professionalism, impartiality, and effective functioning in service of citizens.

Discussions also covered anti-corruption efforts, conditions in pre-trial detention facilities, and the need for further legal reforms, including revisions to the Criminal Code and procedure codes.

Justice Minister emphasized that cooperation with the Council of Europe is key to strengthening citizen safeguards, improving access to justice, and enhancing system efficiency.

“Justice has meaning only when it works concretely for citizens and responds to their everyday needs,” Gogu said.
