Globally, the latest update makes for grim reading. The majority of countries on the index declined for a fifth consecutive year in 2022. Freedom of expression is down in over 80% of countries since 2015; adherence to the rule of law fell in 61% of them in the past year. Sudan and Myanmar are leading the decline. Russia’s ranking has tumbled in the past five years, landing it in 107th place. But other former Soviet and communist states, in eastern Europe and Central Asia, have bucked the trend.
Moldova, an EU hopeful perennially in Mr Putin’s crosshairs, led the index in improvements to the rule of law between 2015 and 2022. Ukraine, which applied for EU membership shortly after it was invaded, has also improved its score markedly since 2015.
