On 18 January 2024, the Prosecutor-General travelled to Strasbourg to strengthen the rich dialogue between the Cour de Cassation (Court of cassation) and the bodies of the Council of Europe and the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), which are pillars of our rule of law.
Firstly, the Prosecutor-General had a meeting with Ms Siofra O'LEARY, President of the ECHR, in the presence of Mr Matthias GUYOMAR, the judge elected on behalf of France.
He then exchanged views with French lawyers from the ECHR registry, then with the Department for the Execution of Judgments of the ECHR, before visiting the headquarters of the European Commission for the Efficiency of Justice (CEPEJ), where he met the members of the Secretariat.
Finally, the Prosecutor-General had talks with Mr Pap NDIAYE, Ambassador and Permanent Representative of France to the Council of Europe.
The visit provided an opportunity to learn more about each other's institutions, which is vital to the effective coordination of our actions.
