Judiciary
 The future member states of the EU should have an independent, impartial and accountable, professional, competent and effective judiciary. The goal is to ensure the rule of law as one of the fundamental values of the EU as well as the enforcement of EU law in all member states.
Anti-corruption policy
 Corruption is a serious threat to the stability of the democratic institutions and the rule of law. Therefore, EU member states are obliged to ensure effective fight against corruption.
Fundamental rights
  The Union respects the fundamental rights as they are guaranteed in the Charter of Fundamental rights of the EU. The respect of the fundamental rights is a wide area which is comprised of numerous international mechanisms for protection and gurantees of human rights.
EU citizen rights
 This relates to the active and passive voter’s right for the local and European Parliament elections, the free movement as well as the international diplomatic and consular protection. They are usually relevant prior to the accession in the EU.
