RORadu Marinescu, former Minister of Justice in Romania, claims that the judicial system is under constant attack rather than being captured, and he accuses a portion of the political class of launching an open conflict against justice. He argues that essential reforms, such as improving victim protection, reducing court workloads, and enhancing alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, have been blocked due to the limited powers of the interim government. Marinescu criticizes former coalition partners of the Social Democratic Party (PSD) for wanting to prolong the interim period and warns that this situation risks undermining the rule of law and previous achievements in the judiciary, which had led to the lifting of the European Union's Article 7 proceedings against Romania. He references the documentary 'Justiție capturată' by Recorder, which exposed serious corruption within the judiciary, including judges allegedly pressured to make decisions favorable to defendants and concerns over the blocking of investigations by the National Anticorruption Directorate (DNA).
