Over two months after the publication of the Report by the European Centre for Law and Justice (ECLJ), new voices are being raised every day to denounce conflicts of interest between judges of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) and NGOs funded by George Soros, including the rich and highly controversial Open Society. As a reminder, this report revealed that 18 judges ruled 88 times in cases brought or supported by these NGOs of which they had previously been collaborators or leaders, in serious violation of judicial ethics. In any State under the rule of law, the perpetrator of such breaches would face severe disciplinary sanctions, and the cases in question would have to be retried.
