Isi artikel
Joining the European Union means that a country has met--and will keep to--the EU's strict standards of good government and respect for the rule of law. That is the theory, but practice is messier, as shown by a spat between Romania's prime minister, Victor Ponta, and its president, Traian Basescu. Both men have their flaws, but Mr Ponta is fighting dirty even by Romanian standards. He has exploited his new parliamentary majority to suspend Mr Basescu from office and override constitutional provisions governing his impeachment. He has seized control of several supposedly independent institutions. And he has changed the rules for a referendum to determine Mr Basescu's fate on July 29th--although the constitutional court has thrown the president a lifeline by insisting on a high turnout. This is part of a worrying trend in Europe in which political leaders use an electoral mandate to entrench their power. It is not wholly new, nor confined to eastern Europe.
