On 6 March 2026, Judge Prof. Dr Ana Pavlovska-Daneva appeared as a guest in an interview on the programme Tema na denot (“Topic of the Day”), where she discussed the advancement of transparency within the Constitutional Court.
During the discussion, it was emphasised that on Wednesday, 4 March, a session of the Constitutional Court was broadcast live on the Court’s website for the first time, representing an important step towards greater institutional openness to the public. This forms part of the implementation of the final phase of the transparency enhancement process—recording sessions and broadcasting them live.
“From now on, everyone will have the opportunity to hear our legal argumentation, to follow our legal reasoning, to understand what the arguments are and why a decision has been adopted. This is, in essence, what is known internationally as ‘open justice’. It may also convince those who think otherwise that no pressure has been exerted. Perhaps politicians will cease accusing us of working for one or another party,” Pavlovska-Daneva underlined.
She further added that she expects public discussions and the legal reasoning made accessible to citizens to demonstrate that decisions are based on legal arguments.
“I hope that, through our discussions—which will be publicly visible and followed—we will succeed in demonstrating the existence of sound legal reasoning. In law, it is true that matters are not as in mathematics, where two plus two equals four. It often happens that, through legal argumentation, we revise our position on the basis of our colleagues’ arguments, and that is both healthy and precisely the purpose of such debates,” Judge Daneva stated.
