The Council of Europe has warned that Malta faces an increased risk of corruption unless it takes decisive action to address a prevailing culture of impunity. The organization emphasized that the country remains vulnerable to systemic issues that undermine the rule of law.
In its latest assessment, the Council of Europe called for radical reforms to strengthen the rule of law within the nation. A central component of these recommendations includes the implementation of more robust protections for journalists, who are considered essential to maintaining accountability and transparency in public life.
The warning highlights ongoing concerns regarding the effectiveness of Malta’s institutional safeguards. By urging structural changes, the Council of Europe aims to ensure that the country aligns with international standards of governance and justice, thereby mitigating the potential for future corruption.
