Mr President, in practice, the European Judicial Area operates to the detriment of ordinary citizens and small businesses. By contrast, it is especially useful to large businesses and those of our fellow citizens who have the wherewithal to pay teams of national and international lawyers.
The murky affair of the extradition of Aurore Martin from France to Spain is a case in point. The case is a disgrace to France and the European Union. The text before us, far from being an improvement on the current situation, proposes to increase inequality between persons subject to law. A judgment given in one Member State would become enforceable, without any intermediate procedure, in another Member State.
Challenging the right to object to recognition or enforcement of a Member State judgment on the ground of manifest incompatibility with the enforcing Member State’s public policy is a genuinely backward step. Almost no review of the jurisdiction of the courts of origin would be possible. Justice would function on autopilot. I can in no way endorse a text of this nature, especially in the light of the scandalous Aurore Martin case.
In short, this document is a perfect illustration of the authoritarian slide, to put it mildly, of European institutions whose ultraliberal economic model is in crisis. Indeed, we are moving from a liberal Europe to an ordoliberal Europe."@en1
