Romanians demonstrate against judicial decree
By EUobserver
Thousands of Romanians took to the streets on Sunday to protest a government emergency decree that critics say undermines the rule of law. The decree prevents the country's chief state prosecutor from dismissing a probe into the former head of the national anti-corruption agency, Laura Kovesi - who is now running for the EU top prosecutor job. The commission last week said the decree was of "great concern."
