 On 26 July 2024, Bulgaria’s Constitutional Court declared a significant part of constitutional amendments enacted in December 2023 unconstitutional. These amendments were part of a rushed constitutional reform which was supposed to address persistent rule of law challenges in the country, such as the excessive powers of the Prosecutor’s Office and the politicization of the Supreme Judicial Council. The drama in Bulgaria raises concerns about why the EU Commission recognizes half-baked, ill-written constitutional reforms as progress without analysis of their substantive merit in context.
