The conference was organized in two panel sessions: the first “Balancing the constitutional identities of the Member States of the European Union and the Council of Europe with the shared European values” and the second “The European consensus and its impact on the European public order”.
At the Conference, Vice-President Ćeman met with the President and Judges of the Constitutional Court and Supreme Court of the Republic of Latvia, presidents and judges of other European constitutional and supreme courts and prominent legal experts. Vice-President used an opportunity to exchange opinions on the topic of the Conference itself, as well as on other current constitutional and legal issues.
