>has already sanctioned EU judges for doing their jobs when their job is against US interests.
Wow, this is scary. I assume EU would never punish US companies for doing their jobs when their job is against EU interests?
A judge making a ruling to listen to a case, issuing arrest warrants so those cases can proceed (arrest does not mean proven guilty!), is not supposed to be a valid target.
Great, then when American judges rule that Maduro is a valid arrest target, then no one in the EU can complain.
The equivalent here would be if that American judge was sanctioned by the EU for issuing the arrest warrant for Maduro. Or would be, if Venezuela was an ally of the EU.
That Maduro was a head of state and still subject to an extraordinary rendition means that now the EU has to worry about EU heads of state being violently extradited to the USA. Not because anyone in the EU cares about Maduro himself, but because the US has signalled by doing this that they don't care about the old rules.
Sanctioning is now the same as complaining, apparently.
Someone is concerned about the US personally sanctioning EU judges, you make some false equivalence about EU sanctioning US companies, and then again about EU citizens complaining about US judges.
Is this all you do? It's not helping whatever case you have.
Why are you comparing US companies to EU judges? To me it seems like private business in the US is much more involved in the legislative than the judicative branch.
