Do you believe that a judge has the right to prohibit a suspect from communicating with an unspecified group of people if this could significantly limit his right to defense?

Right to defense in a glass cabin during trial
I read that the accused was kept in a glass cabin during a court hearing, and the Supreme Court ruled that this does not violate their right to defense. I am curious whether a person's presence in such a glass cabin during court proceedings truly does not limit their ability to communicate with their lawyer and fully protect their rights? How does this align with the law, and can the accused demand any other conditions of stay in the courtroom?

Does a glass enclosure violate the right to defense?
I saw news that during a court hearing, the accused was in a glass enclosure, not next to their defense counsel, but the court decided that this does not violate their right to defense. I don't quite understand if this is actually permissible, and if it's normal for a person to be isolated from contact with a lawyer precisely during the consideration of their case? I am interested in whether being in such an enclosure is considered full provision of the right to defense, or if there might be any exceptions or limitations here?

Judicial staff shortage in courts and its consequences for justice
I have heard many times about problems with the shortage of judges, especially when it is said that thousands of vacancies remain unfilled and the work of the courts is paralyzed. I am concerned about: what are the possible consequences of this staffing crisis for ordinary people who turn to the courts? Does the shortage of judges affect the time taken to hear cases, their quality, and generally my guaranteed right to judicial protection within the required timeframe?

Do you think judges should clearly define the persons with whom a suspect is prohibited from communicating?
According to the case under consideration, the judge of the Supreme Court of Justice Viktor Maslov forbade the suspect from communicating with “everyone in the world,” which was recognized by the High Council of Justice as a violation of the right to defense. I believe that judges should follow the law and indicate specific individuals in their decisions. Do you share this opinion?
