The president of the Supreme Court of Justice, Jorge Subero Isa, has asked that there be no step backwards in regards to the reform of the judiciary started in 1997. Interviewed by El Siglo newspaper, he confirmed that the nation’s risk rating by international agencies improved after the new Supreme Court of Justice was installed in 1997. A constitutional reform proposal seeks to make changes in the terms of judges and how they are chosen, which has met with rejection in most sectors.
