After a long time, Judit Varga has once again appeared in public: the former Minister of Justice will host a new legal podcast. In the program, she will talk with Central European lawyers, professors, and judges about various professional topics.

Judit Varga returns to the public in a new role: the former Minister of Justice will be the host of a legal themed podcast.

Among the guests will be Vladan Petrov, President of the Constitutional Court of Serbia; Petar Bačić, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Law at the University of Split; and Tanja Karakamiševa Jovanovska, professor at the University of Skopje.

Further episodes will feature Aleksander Stępkowski, a member of the Polish Supreme Court and former state secretary in the previous PiS government, as well as Katarzyna Zombory, research director, and János Ede Szilágyi, strategic director at the Central European Academy. Dalibor Đukić, associate professor at the Faculty of Law of the University of Belgrade, will also be a guest.
