However, the public debate is not limited to criminal liability. There is also the institutional and political dimension. A case that damaged the credibility of the country and concerned the international community requires clear answers about the way in which the institutions functioned and how their effectiveness and credibility are ensured in the future.

The silence of political forces towards this institutional dimension raises reasonable questions in society. Citizens are entitled to clarity, responsibility and commitment to strengthening the rule of law.

Volt remains firm in its position in favour of a strong institutional state, where accountability is a fundamental obligation and a basic condition for restoring and maintaining the trust of citizens.
