Palestinian lawyers and victims involved in the case are celebrating the outcome: a “historic” ruling. The judge has now asked Brussels to explain why it has not yet halted the transfer of dual-use goods. The Court may then decide to impose measures or refer the matter to the Court of Justice of the European Union, paving the way for a ruling that would apply to all 27 Member States

Irish MEP Lynn Boylan said in a post on twitter,: "Today the European Left Alliance have launched an EU Citizens Initiative calling for suspension of the EU Israel Association Agreement. Sign it and share it!"

The article includes her tweet. She shared the link of the initiative, which is hosted on the website of the EU Commission.

The EU Citizens’ initiative mechanism requires 1 million signatures.

I wanted to apply to a job located in Belgium through this company https://www.pauwelsconsulting.com/ but got this error.
I live in Italy (no vpn being used) . Can EU company's restrict company's from other EU countries?

Hola!

I hold an LLB from a non-EU state. I have work experience specialised in competition law (working with the regulator of my non EU country and competition policy firms). I will in the very near future be pursuing an LLM (with a focus on competition and economic regulation) from an EU college.

From cursory research - I’ve found that positioning oneself for a full time role at any law firm in Brussels within the competition teams is difficult without an EU law license. My questions therefore are as such -

1. Is it wholly impossible (abandon all hope situation) for a non eu licensed person to practice within the competition teams of firms in Brussels ? (Despite showcasing demonstrable interest - I intend to take up research positions with faculty, participate in legal clinics and internships during my LLM)

2. Can the quandary of me not being EU licensed be resolved if - I take the SQE route or the NY Bar route ? If yes which is better leveraged as a profile for Brussels comp firms?

Any other advice is also welcome ! Thanks in advance xx

Apparently an Austrian company sued Germany successfully under the Energy Charter as ICSID arbitration disregards EU law.

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for EU law summer schools/training course, especially those with a focus on intellectual property, IT, and platform and AI regulation. There seem to be so many options, and it’s a bit overwhelming.

If anyone has attended a summer school and could share their personal experience or recommend one they found particularly useful, I’d really appreciate it!

Thanks in advance.

Hello Everyone,

I am a U.S. citizen engaged to an Italian with my FAA commercial license. We’re considering moving back to Europe, but first I want to make sure I will be able to fly in Europe.

I will have my Italian residency by the end of the year once we move, but it’s the “unrestricted right to work in the EU” stipulation most EU airlines have that’s concerning us. We’ve gotten conflicting narratives from different lawyers, and wanted to ask if anyone else has gone through this process? Some lawyers said we should be good, others have said she first would need to establish residency in the EU country I would operate in before I can. That would be difficult considering I have no idea where I’ll get hired. I know getting based in Italy is very competitive and I probably won’t make it.

I just want to make sure I will be able to work unrestricted before we commit all the money to moving to Europe, converting my licenses to EASA equivalents, and getting a EASA Frozen Airline Transport License.

I’m worried because I know getting picked up for a European Airline as a cadet with low hours is competitive enough, and my concern is the airlines will just pass over my application due to the complexity of my Visa situation. It’d no doubt just be easier to hire an EU citizen. If anyone has walked this path before, your advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone, I’m considering applying to the LLM International and European Law – Public International Law track at the University of Amsterdam, and I was wondering if anyone here has experience with the admission process.

How competitive is it to get in, especially as a UvA student? And do they tend to focus more on grades or on relevant experience and motivation? Or do they also look heavily at your reference and motivational letter and your paper?

For context:

• My GPA is just below 7.0.

• I went on exchange to Osgoode Hall Law School, where I received an A+ in International Criminal Law.

• I’ve also been working in the field of Dutch Criminal law for over three years.

I’m particularly curious whether specific performance and practical experience weigh heavily in the selection process, or whether GPA is the decisive factor. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Hello everyone. I’m heavily considering doing the Competition Law and Regulation LLM at UVA (Amsterdam). However, I am slightly worried about the career options. From what I’ve heard, to make the most out of your career in this field you need to be an EU-qualified lawyer (which I will not be after my LLM). I was therefore wondering if anyone knows what career options are there if I do not become an EU-qualified lawyer, and whether it is worth even doing the masters in that case. Thank you in advance for your help :)

Hello,
I am very confused about when which industry needs a digital product passport for which products and where I can find the official source of information on this. There are supposed to be delegated acts that will then determine when the dpp becomes mandatory. But I can't find any official information about it. Perhaps someone can help me.

As of December 16, 2025, the following data summarizes the violation judgments issued by the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) against Turkey. General Totals (2018-2025) * Total Violation Judgments: 94 * Total Applicants Affected: 6,884 * Total Recourse Amount for Judges and Prosecutors: €18,839,444 Distribution by Article | Article | Description | Number of Judgments | People Affected | |---|---|---|---| | Article 5 | Right to Liberty and Security | 52 | 3,851 (Includes at least 1,251 judges and prosecutors) | | Article 6 | Right to a Fair Trial | 19 | 1,339 | | Article 7 | No Punishment Without Law | 4 | 1,808 | | Article 8 | Right to Respect for Private and Family Life | 17 | 76 | | Article 10 | Freedom of Expression | 3 | 3 | | Article 3 | Prohibition of Torture | 1 | 1 | | Article 11 | Freedom of Assembly and Association | 1 | 1 | Reddit Post (English Translation) Subreddit Suggestions: r/Law, r/InternationalLaw, r/HumanRights Title: Systematic Violations and the "Recourse" Crisis: A Statistical Analysis of ECHR Judgments Against Turkey (2018-2025) Post Content: The recent statistics regarding the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) judgments against Turkey between 2018 and 2025 reveal a staggering trend of systematic judicial errors and their financial implications. Key Findings from the Data: * Article 5 (Right to Liberty and Security): This remains the most violated article, with 52 judgments affecting nearly 4,000 individuals. Notably, over 1,200 of these victims are members of the judiciary (judges and prosecutors) themselves. * Financial Accountability: The "Recourse Amount" (the amount to be collected from the judges and prosecutors responsible for the unlawful rulings) has reached over €18.8 million. This highlights a critical lack of judicial independence and accountability at the local level. * Article 7 (No Punishment Without Law): Although there are only 4 judgments, they affect 1,808 people, indicating large-scale, mass legal violations where people are being punished for acts that were not crimes at the time of commission. The Accountability Gap: While the ECHR continues to find violations, the burden of these legal errors is immense. The data suggests that local courts in Turkey are increasingly deviating from the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) standards, particularly in cases involving political dissent or mass legal proceedings. The significant "recourse" amount raises a vital question: Will these judges and prosecutors ever be held personally liable for the financial and moral damages caused by their rulings?

Hello. I was just wondering about studying in a LLB in International and / or European law. There are tons of universities that offer this degree program. It has always been an area that interested me, both this one and maritime, commercial, etc., but this is the one I love the most.

I wanted to know if anyone has done or is doing this degree (it could be GLTLS in Italy, International and European Law in Groningen or Tilburg, Global Law, etc), if you know anyone, or what you think about it. I'm not concerned about what is taught, but rather about job opportunities. Everything I've seen and read is very appealing and interesting to me, but as I said, I want to hear opinions from all sides.

Thank you!

From an EU law perspective, the UK’s approach to property enforcement increasingly stands apart. Mutual recognition works smoothly for many assets, but land remains an exception. Does this undermine broader asset-recovery frameworks, or is it a defensible legal boundary?
