"Article 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, Article 6 of the European Convention on the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and Article 14 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights enshrine the right to a fair trial. Article 48 of the Charter guarantees respect for the rights of the defence. The European Union has set itself the objective of maintaining and developing the area of freedom, security and justice. It is necessary for the principle of mutual recognition to become the cornerstone of judicial cooperation in both civil and criminal matters within the European Union, since enhanced mutual recognition of judicial decisions and judgments and the necessary approximation of legislation would facilitate cooperation between individual authorities and the judicial protection of individual rights. The extent of the mutual recognition exercise is very much dependent on a number of parameters, which include mechanisms for safeguarding the rights of suspects and common minimum standards necessary to facilitate the application of the principle of mutual recognition. I am convinced that mutual recognition can only function effectively in an atmosphere of trust, whereby not only judicial authorities, but all actors in criminal processes, see decisions of the judicial authorities of other Member States as equivalent to their own, implying trust not only in the adequacy of one’s partner’s rules, but also the confidence that those rules are applied correctly."@en1
