VOICED: French 'ministers court' under the spotlight

The video discusses the French Criminal Court, CJR, which tries government ministers for crimes committed during their official duties. It explains the court's unique structure, including a panel of Supreme Court judges and elected parliament members, which raises concerns about impartiality. Despite over 1000 complaints since 1993, only a few cases have reached judgment. Critics argue the system is too deferential to politicians compared to other countries. While some suggest separating political and judicial responsibilities, the CJR remains in place, with appeals possible to the Supreme Court.
