European Parliament calls for a European pact for democracy, rule of law and fundamental rights
The European Parliament has today given broad support to the In ‘t Veld legislative initiative report, calling on the Commission to submit a proposal for an objective and non-politicised mechanism to protect democracy, rule of law and fundamental rights (DRF) in the European Union. The DRF Pact, as proposed by the rapporteur Sophie in ’t Veld, would help to prevent and correct breaches of EU values in all Member States and the EU Institutions. The new tool would also foster the credibility of the EU and help reinforce mutual trust and stability in the Union.

Poland: right to safe and legal abortion must be guaranteed
The ALDE Group deplores the results of the votes held today in the Polish Parliament, which rejected a piece of legislation liberalising abortion and approved in first reading a bill for an almost complete ban. European liberals and democrats call on the members in the Sejm to work on legislation that guarantees women’s rights, especially the right to safe and legal abortion. Poland already has one of the most restrictive legal frameworks in this field, and the text approved today could have terrible consequences for women’s health and lives.
