Abstract
During the last years some Member States of the European Union have introduced legislative changes that conflict with the principle of rule of law. These are clear violations of the obligation to respect the values, established in Art. 2 TEU, on which the European Union is founded. These values represent minimum requirements that Member States can not disregard, unless compromising the mutual trust, that is a fundamental element for the operation of the Union. The instruments, provided in Art. 7 TEU, to deal with these type of violations were not applied, preferring to apply alternative means that, however, did not work. This work aims to investigate, on one hand, the reasons of the failure of the activated mechanisms and, on the other hand, the capacity of the recent proposal of the European Parliament, to set up a new monitoring mechanism, to fill the gaps.
