Merkel is very pragmatic - hence her long tenure in office. This would have been an excellent opportunity to show the world what European values are all about except for the fact the Europe is currently beholden to Turkey to address the migration crisis.
- jayess 11y agoI'm not sure what European values even are. Europe used to be the land of the enlightenment. That seems to have regressed substantially lately.
- elcapitan 11y agoIf I remember it correctly, Europe never was a "land".
- vidarh 11y ago"European values" does not include having the executive stand in the way of putting a case in front of the judiciary. It's a bad law, but having the executive exercise its option to not consent would have been worse.
