🚨 MASSIVE defeat for Frontex in two judgments - the agency is liable if it assists Member States to do pushbacks etc in breach of human rights; rules of evidence are simplified for migrants curia.europa.eu/jcms/jcms/Jo...

🇪🇺⚖️🇵🇱 Revenge is a dish best served cold (and after five years). Moments ago, CJEU, in the case Commission v. Poland, found that the Polish Constitutional Tribunal has not only violated EU law with its anti-EU rulings, but also was (is) not an independent court established properly by law. 1/
🧵 Let's break down the six security guarantees that European leaders have just committed to Ukraine as part of a future peace deal.
Note: this is a commitment on paper for now.
🚨🚨Major #EU news: More than 80 percent of Europe’s companies will be freed from environmental reporting obligations after @europarl.europa.eu and @consilium.europa.eu reached a deal on a proposal to cut green rules on Monday. 🧵

This afternoon, we had a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing. I updated President Zelenskyy and leaders present on two key priorities - support for Ukraine and increasing European defence preparedness.
Today, the EU has shown that we can deliver.
The Council reached a general approach on the safe third country concept and the first EU safe country of origin list. These are all measures that will help process claims more effectively and reduce pressure on asylum systems.
Unglaublich‼️Schon wieder reißt die EVP die Brandmauer ein – diesmal beim Waldschutz. Statt Kompromisse mit der Mitte zu suchen, peitscht sie ihre Maximalposition mit extrem Rechten durch‼️ Das schwächt das EU-Entwaldungsgesetz, bestraft vorbildliche Unternehmen & gefährdet bis zu 150.000 Hektar Wald.

For a legal discussion of the feasibility of return hubs, see our blog post here (/w Isabella Brockman): eulawanalysis.blogspot.com/2025/06/retu...
Some positive elements included, such as a the principle of voluntary return. So-called 'return hubs' still in, raising significant legal problems.
Such a policy may not just be grills to the mill of Russian propaganda, but it may also conflict with EU non-discrimination law standards, as I argue in this pre-print (a revised version is forthcoming in the European Yearbook of Constitutional Law).
The @ec.europa.eu just adopted rules banning new multiple-entry visas for Russian nationals. From now on, only single-entry visas will be issued, with rare exceptions. The move aims to tighten security and pressure Moscow over its war in Ukraine but may be legally and politically problematic:
🇪🇺⚖️🇵🇱 On 2 December, CJEU will hear the case of European judicial associations challenging the Commission's assessment that Poland met the rule of law milestones for unlocking the RRF (recovery fund). Ahead of the hearing, the Court has asked the Polish government an extremely difficult question:

Plot showing the number of infringement proceedings, interventions per infringement case, and percentage of interventions for the Commission. Please refer to paper for detailed image description.
Since the turn of the century, the Commission has famously litigated ever fewer infringement cases. When the Commission was still increasing the number of cases, MS did not respond with more opposition right away. Later on, they continued to oppose the […]

Plot showing Actions for Annulment against Administrative EU Acts. Please refer to paper for detailed image description.
MS also increasingly litigated against EU-level implementation decisions until the early 2000s, when the Commission relaxed its control over agricultural policy and subsidies. These policy areas are responsible for 3/4 of all annulment cases against the EU […]

Plot showing the number of actions for annulment against legislative acts. Please refer to the paper for a detailed image description.
EU legislation is subject to increasing legal mobilization in response to the pooling and delegation of law-making powers to the EU. Recently, mobilization has plateaued, but this may change as the new MS grow more confident. The corresponding annulment […]

Table showing the main direct action procedures with litigant constellations and authority dimensions
The take-home message: Overall, mobilization against EU legislation, implementation, and enforcement is growing, but the salience and polarisation of the respective Court proceedings depends on how much authority the EU wielded in these domains in different […]

This work is the result of a truly inspiring interdisciplinary journey that began almost three years ago.
Thanks to @detershenning.eupolicy.social.ap.brid.gy, we found a research angle that allowed us to combine #politicalScience and #legalscience perspectives to explore MS litigation activity.
By analysing annulment and infringement cases involving Member States between 1954 and 2022, we observe that mobilisation against EU legislation, implementation is overall growing. We note that the number of governmental interventions and polarisation depend on the scope of authority transferred.
In our article, we ask whether the transfer of authority to EU institutions shapes Member States' legal contestation before the @eucourtofjustice.bsky.social. How do national governments mobilise against the transfer and exercise of EU authority?
