Broad Abroad Podcast – At a crossroad of law and politics: European rule of law debates and the US Supreme Court’s decision on abortion

This episode of the „Broad Abroad Podcast” offers a glimpse behind the scenes of the rule of law debates between Hungary and the European Union, and intelligible explanation on the US Supreme Court’s decision on abortion rights, Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. Why does Brussels constantly criticise Hungary on the field of the Rule of Law? What are the underlying political and institutional interests behind European rule of law debates? Has the US Supreme court decided in favour of restricting abortion rights? Thought-provoking discussion by Melissa O’Sullivan, deputy executive director, and Ákos Bence Gát, head of communications and international relations of the Danube Institute.
