"The decision does not mean that the Constitutional Court supports or shares the views contained in the statement. Statements that Constitutional Court disagrees with could fall within the scope of freedom of expression," the statement said.
In summary, the following expressions were said in the statement:
"The declaration that the applicants signed has content that is really unacceptable for the great majority of the society.
"Nevertheless, the statements that the Constitutional Court does in no way agree with could fall within the scope of freedom of expression."
"In evaluating whether a remark or statement is within the freedom of expression, whether this statement is true or disturbing is not determinant."
"The fact that an expressed opinion directs harsh criticisms against the authorities, uses a sharp accusing language and is even one-sided, contradictory and subjective does not mean that it leads people to violence or poses a danger to society, state, and democratic order and, therefore, it also does not mean that it urges people to commit illegal acts.
