Changing law requires president's signature

The judiciary in the country has been changed by making the appointment of judges dependent on parliament rather than the judges themselves. This has led to the replacement of thousands of judges over the past eight years, and the body that appoints judges has been ruled illegitimate by the European Court of Justice. Consequently, the appointed judges are not considered truly legitimate under European law. Resolving this issue will take time as it requires changing the law, which in turn needs the president's signature. Untangling the problem with state-owned companies, such as the case of the state-owned oil companies, which led to a monopoly and fuel price manipulation, is also expected to be a lengthy process for the new government.
