Roberta Metsola, president of the European Parliament, defends the Union from the corruption case involving former vice-president Eva Kaili and some former MPs. «Our democracy is under attack – said Metsola – Malicious actors think that Europe is for sale. We will respond firmly to all of them, the invasion of Ukraine affects us all and together we can ensure peace, stability and prosperity in Europe and the world.” So Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament, during the XV Conference of Italian Ambassadors held in Farnesina.
The President of the European Parliament then underlined the importance of Europe remaining united in the face of the emergency caused by the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. “I am proud of our European response, we remain united, deciding together, it is a victory for diplomacy and for Europe”. So said Roberta Metsola, condemning the Russian “brutal invasion” of Ukraine, which “disturbed the axis on which our geographical reality rested”. “We turned what Putin considered our greatest weakness into our greatest strength. We must continue on this path, but we can only do so if we make courageous decisions”. Then the need to continue military support to Ukraine from Zelensky. “Next year, Ukraine will again turn to us for political, humanitarian, military, energy and financial support. We can’t afford to get tired because that’s what Russia expects. We want to show the same resilience that we ask of Ukrainians.”
Metsola also could not fail to deal with the migratory emergency. “We must continue working to find an agreement on migration policy and, in this regard”, we will use “the contacts that Italy maintains with third countries to find solutions that do not leave countries alone to face the challenges that will increase in the coming years”.
