Europe and beyond: Emily O'Reilly, European Ombudsman, in interview, and Aonghus Kelly on the law of war

Mar 9, 2022

Emily O'Reilly, European Ombudsman, joins the podcast to discuss the cases she investigates and how her 20 years as a journalist in Ireland previously has informed her role. As war in Ukraine continues, the hosts speak to Aonghus Kelly, of Irish Rule of Law International, who explains the law of when a country can invade another sovereign state, and the mechanisms for punishing war crimes. Also on the menu: case law on the recusal of judges in a judicial review of personal injury guidelines, and a claim by a man for provision from the estate of his mother who gave him away as a child.
