Lithuanian ministry names Valancius as best candidate for EU judge 2021-05-10 BNS/TBT Staff
VILNIUS – The Lithuanian Justice Ministry on Monday named Virginijus Valancius as the best candidate for a General Court judge, the post he is currently holding.
Two years ago, President Gitanas Nauseda did not approve of Valancius re-appointment.
Valancius scored the highest among all eight applicants interviewed by a selection panel headed by Justice Minister Evelina Dobrovolska, the ministry said.
Valancius nomination has yet to be approved by the government, the president and the parliament.
If Lithuania nominates Valancius, he will have to be endorsed by a special Luxembourg-based panel.
