Due to the worsening sanitary conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the ceremony devoted to the 30th anniversary of the Venice Commission, initially scheduled on 9 October, has been postponed to a later date. Despite these unfortunate circumstances, the European Union wishes to celebrate the fundamental contribution of the Venice Commission to strengthening the rule of law in European countries, and recalls the important role that it has played in deepening EU – Council of Europe cooperation.
