EU pressed on rule of law over US treatment of judges

Original: So, jetzt kommt zur Gretchenfrage: Wie hält es die # eu mit dem Recht? Unrecht der # usa gegen einzelne RichterInnen wur

A German-language debate is underway over whether the European Union will uphold legal principles in response to US actions against individual judges. Commenters argue the EU has so far ignored what they call injustices by the United States toward judiciary members, and that Washington's latest steps are now forcing the EU to take a clear stance on the rule of law.

Why now: A new US measure, reportedly involving the State Department targeting judicial figures, is prompting Europeans to question whether the EU will respond in defence of legal norms.
