INVITATION: EU± // Countries of Central Europe and the rule of law

The European Union was founded on the principles of freedom, equality and democracy - these are the values within which the rule of law plays an important role. Recently, in relation to the situation in Poland and Hungary, there has been a debate on the extent to which the EU should protect these fundamental values and whether it has the right to comment on them at all.

These and other questions will be answered by:

• Vít Dostál, Director of the Association for International Affairs
• Kateřina Šafaříková, Journalist, Respekt 

The event will be moderated by Tomáš Weiss from the Department of European Studies, IMS FSV UK.

The event will take place on Wednesday, November 6th, from 19:00 at the Prague Creative Center. It is available also on Facebook.
