San Marino political and judicial developments

Overview

Political activity in San Marino has recently focused on legislative achievements, fiscal reform, and concerns regarding judicial independence.

The Social Democratic Party (PSD) marked two years of the current legislature by reaffirming its support for the governing majority while advocating for specific reforms. The party highlighted successes in citizenship, family support, and animal protection laws, but also called for renewed momentum on fiscal reforms, particularly regarding VAT and improvements to the banking sector.

Concurrently, political opposition, including the movement Repubblica Futura, has criticized the State Congress over the independence of the judiciary and freedom of expression. These critics expressed disappointment that the government may be ignoring international oversight, citing previous warnings from the Council of Europe and the Commissioner for Human Rights, as well as rulings from the European Court of Human Rights.
