Arrimadas advocates an express reform of the judge election system: "I see a very easy solution"

MADRID, 10 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) -

The president of Ciudadanos, Inés Arrimadas, advocates an express reform of the system for electing judges as a solution to the blockade to renew the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ), which has expired for four years, and which has triggered the resignation of the president of the Supreme Court (TS) and the CGPJ, Carlos Lesmes, after failing to make progress in this regard.

This is how the leader of the 'orange' formation has expressed itself in an interview on TVE, collected by Europa Press, when asked about the situation in which the Judiciary remains after the resignation of Lesmes and about whether he expects an agreement from the meeting between the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, and the leader of the opposition, Alberto Núñez Feijóo, this Monday in Moncloa.

Arrimadas, who is confident that the appointment will end with an agreement to "stop sharing" with the judges, has pointed out that "what needs to be done is a very fast express reform." "It can be done," added the leader of Cs, who underlines that more than two years ago she presented a proposal.

In this sense, he has demanded that there be "neither blockages nor fingers" and has insisted that the solution is "very easy". "This does not cost a lot of money, this is a political agreement to reform the system, assimilate us to Europe and stop being ashamed of the European institutions," she argued. In line, he has lamented that Spain has had negative reports from Europe for years and has recalled that the Commissioner for Justice, Didier Reynders, came to "draw the colors from the PP and the PSOE".

"The Judiciary is helpless because those who have to allow it to function normally, which are the politicians, do not do their job," Arrimadas has settled, criticizing that the distribution of judges shows the "degradation of the political class when It's about the judiciary."
