In the latest episode of ERA Talks, George L. Savvides, Attorney General of the Republic of Cyprus, discusses the country’s justice system, judicial reform, and its role within the European Union.
Unlike most continental European systems, Cyprus has retained a common law tradition and a distinctive model in which the Attorney General serves both as legal adviser to the Executive and as Director of Public Prosecutions. The discussion explores how this dual role functions in practice, alongside key developments in the Cypriot legal system.
Recorded at the close of the Cyprus Presidency of the EU Council, the interview also touches on judicial reform, anti-corruption efforts, European court judgments, and the legal challenges facing Cyprus in a changing geopolitical environment.
A timely conversation on justice, European law, and the future of the rule of law. Watch the full interview here:
