The European People’s Party does not abandon the mechanism of the rule of law.

They hope that the European People’s Party will be able to convince the Hungarian government “that the system established in the regulation adopted on the rule of law not only respects the agreement of the July European Council, but also an impartial mechanism,” he said. TelexPedro López de Pablo, Communication Director of the European Group of the European People’s Party (EPP).

As previously reported, Hungary and Poland blocked decisions on the EU budget for the next seven years and the corresponding recovery fund, after a qualified majority of member state representatives agreed to incorporate the rule of law criteria into the disbursement of EU funds.

According to Pedro López de Pablo, only the EU budget and the recovery fund will vote together. In the interview, he also said that the EPP will not abandon the rule of law mechanism.

The director also said that delaying the € 1,800 package adopted by the crisis caused by the coronavirus epidemic, by the veto, would harm the states and citizens most affected by the crisis. In the EPP, they hope that the European Council will find a solution that does not delay the process.
