The reputation of the EU depends on the investigation of corruption. Borel
The head of EU diplomacy, Josep Borel, shared at the conference of human rights defenders that people laughed at the EU because of the corruption scandal involving the European Parliament and emphasized that the reputation of the European Union in the international arena depends on the investigation of the case.
Authorities in Belgium, home to the European Parliament, made several arrests and searches in Brussels last week to investigate suspected corruption linked to Qatar's hosting of the World Cup. In particular, the vice-president of the European Parliament, Greek figure Eva Kaili, and her partner were arrested, and a search was done at the residence of an employee of the European Parliament.
This week it became known that Belgian law enforcement officers seized more than 1.5 million euros in cash and valuable gifts as part of the investigation. Kyle was expelled from his native political party and deprived of his position in the European Parliament.
