It is actually one of the tasks of the EU Commission to urge compliance with EU law. This means that it is obliged to intervene in the event of violations of rule of law standards in the member states Poland and Hungary, which are known to be violators of the rule of law. It can take legal action before the European Court of Justice (ECJ) or impose fines. As the body that administers the Structural Funds, it also has enormous financial leverage at its disposal – in theory.
According to well-known experts and the EU Parliament, the Commission has not adequately fulfilled its function as guardian of the treaties in recent years. In her eyes, Commission chief Ursula von der Leyen in particular is seen as someone who likes to make compromises at the expense of the rule of law.
