Justice Minister Fokolov Addresses Opposition Concerns Regarding Judicial Reforms
Igor Fokolov, Minister of Justice, addressed concerns raised by the opposition regarding recent judicial reforms enacted over the first two years of his administration. Fokolov highlighted the passage of more than 30 reform laws focused on the justice system, specifically citing amendments to the law on court service and the fair-accused service. The minister acknowledged previous criticism from the opposition, who maintained that these reforms would not be subject to political manipulation or daily political considerations.
Fokolov stated his intention to continue working with the opposition as long as the reforms were driven by genuine efforts to improve the judicial system. However, he expressed regret over a direct action that occurred yesterday, necessitating a temporary halt to the proceedings. Fokolov emphasized the importance of relying on accurate information and avoiding deceptive tactics when addressing public concerns about the judicial process.
He reiterated his commitment to ensuring the reforms are implemented responsibly and transparently, without succumbing to political pressures. The statement was made on June 23, 2026, at 8:40 PM via chatoot. —
