S&D president Iratxe García Pérez on the European Court of Justice ruling:

We have a clear ruling now and it is time to act. We approved the conditionality mechanism one year ago, but for political reasons, and contrary to its obligation to enforce EU law, the Commission was waiting for this ruling. Well, now we have it. There are no more excuses for stalling, because inaction weakens the whole union and the trust of the citizens.

Wherever law doesn’t rule, tyrants do. Without the rule of law, democracy becomes the dictatorship of a majority who feels legitimised to supress minorities and opponents, and try to impose an official line of thought. „
