“We hope to strengthen the [bilateral] ties even more economically. We are here to show support for what we love. We love freedom, we love the ability to achieve your individual dreams, we love the ability to pick our own leaders, we love the rule of law and we hate the rule of [the] gun. It is often asked what would America do if the Chinese Communist Party became more provocative against Taiwan. I'm convinced we would stand for what we love. We would stand with you.”

“The Serbian government prioritized EU-related reforms and delivered on a number of important commitments, in particular on taxation and energy. But further efforts are needed. Serbia's progress on the rule of law and the normalization of relations with Kosovo remains essential and will continue to determine the overall pace of the negotiations.”

“The cancellation of Faruqui's [Munawar Faruqui] shows is targeted economic and social boycott, aimed at crippling [him] and silencing not just dissent but also free speech. It is a direct attack not only on his freedom of speech, but on his freedom to practise his profession and eventually his right to life with dignity… It is an attack on a range of fundamental constitutionally guaranteed rights as well as basic human rights. We should not at all blur the fact that relentless and targeted attack on Munawar Faruqui is on two counts. One because he is a Muslim. Two, he is a Muslim who is speaking against the atrocities committed by the state and by majoritarian groups against Muslims. He is asking inconvenient, uncomfortable questions and therefore he is being targeted. If the police and state authorities allow the writ of the mob to run, then this cannot be a country run by the rule of law.”

“China is a country under the rule of law, and everyone is equal before the law. The UN rights office in Zhang's [Zhang Zhan] case had turned a blind eye to information provided by China through normal channels, and instead, based on hearsay, chose to interfere in China's judicial sovereignty.”

“My hope and prayer would be that never occurs, but one thing Australia has been exceptionally good at is defending our mates and our mates are those that believe in democracy, freedom, the rule of law. hat is how Taiwan operates, their political, legal culture is so similar to ours, and we are duty bound to protect those who share similar values.”

“We have been concerned about the independence of the judiciary for some time. Judges have seen their immunity being lifted, and have been driven out of office without justification. And this threatens judicial independence, which is a basic pillar of the rule of law. We have taken a number of measures. We continue to have a regular dialogue. But unfortunately, the situation has worsened. And this is not only the commission's opinion. This is what has been confirmed by the European court of justice and the European court of human rights. And now this has culminated in the most recent ruling of the Polish constitutional court.”

“We will be in Rome to draw attention to President Xi [Xi Jinping] and the Chinese Communist Party's systematic onslaught on democracy, human rights and the rule of law. We will be in Rome to remind democratic states of their responsibility to safeguard the international rules based order - rules that we have helped to shape and are now under threat from Beijing. True leadership means addressing these challenges, not pretending they don't exist. This G20 must be a turning point and China must be at the top of the agenda.”

“Germany, as one of the strongest countries of the EU, will continue to be an actor in the process of the Western Balkans' accession to the Union and that it will contribute to the enlargement. This is particularly true for Serbia. Regardless of the relationship of trust between Angela Merkel and Aleksandar Vučić, it is in Germany's interest to be supported and surrounded by friends in the EU member states. Germany has an interest for Serbia to make progress on this path through the opening of funds, but it is clear that criteria such as democracy and the rule of law will be met.”

“We want them [six Western Balkans states] in the European Union, we are one European family. We share the same history, we share the same values, and I'm deeply convinced we share the same destiny too. I know that still work has to be done, for example, on the rule of law, on the judiciary, on the freedom of the media, to name some. But I think we should also acknowledge the effort that has been done in the past and the progress that has been done.”

“We want progress to continue. We owe it to your people who dream of a European future. Political dialogue is necessary for Montenegro to advance the rule of law. You have done a lot and there is a lot of effort behind it, so it is important that there is no setback when we talk about success. That is why it is important for society to find consensus and for Montenegro to be preserved as a multi-ethnic state as we know it. A large number of citizens expect progress and that is why we must see results and compromise.”

“The American choice, which leads to the removal of an ally and a European partner such as France from a longstanding partnership with Australia, at a time when we are facing unprecedented challenges in the Indo-Pacific region, whether on our values or on respect for multilateralism based on the rule of law, marks an absence of coherence that France can only observe and regret.”

“The ruling DPK [Democratic Party of Korea] has one strong contender and one medium contender, and the PPP [People Power Party] is also shaping up in the same format due to the support for Hong [Hong Joon-pyo]. Yoon [Yoon Seok-youl] promotes the image of being him a man of principle and the rule of law, but runs the risk of allegations of him being involved with political meddling. On the other hand, Hong is good at debates and offers radical and catchy pledges such as abolishing unions and a revival of the bar exams, although his pledges are not really feasible.”

“This illegal and immoral practice puts citizens of all countries at risk and it undermines the rule of law. It is unacceptable and it must stop. It is totally unacceptable if citizens from our country go to another country, either to visit or to work there, that they have to live in fear that they could become a bargaining chip.”

“It’s a very spurious charge … that is not based on the rule of law. We didn’t have a fairly good rule of law before Monday and we certainly don’t have any now. These are trumped-up charges on behalf of the military as a way of somehow justifying her detention – but there’s no justification.”

“This is the first visit that is taking place during the second week of the work of the new democratic government, tangible proof of the greatest support. Because at the moment, while Brussels – like the rest of the world – is battling the COVID-19 pandemic with a lack of resources, it is an honor and a pleasure to visit. We are committed to raising the quality of life of our citizens and the investments we will certainly attract, and another thing we have neglected – the rule of law.”
