That’s all there is to trust in the EU. The European idea lies on the ground, the moral mantle is corroded by greedy bloodsuckers who, despite their high positions, do not give a damn about the ideals of the old continent.
Eva Kaili (44), one of the 14 (!) Vice-Presidents of the European Parliament, was bribed by Qatar for 600,000 euros. It is said that other parliamentarians were no less corrupt. Same for everyone: they turned a blind eye to Gulf cash and campaigned for the Qatari oil elite in Strasbourg’s parliament building.
Paid parliamentarians who expose the EU’s superficial anti-corruption efforts as a hypocritical farce: Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban (59) and his henchmen will be pleased. The EU will never again be able to dictate (as they did last week) that they must move forward in the fight against corruption in their countries. A drunkard cannot stop a drunkard from drinking.
Not only for the EU, but also for Qatar, things went badly. The European Parliament was going to provide the sheikhs with a visa-free regime. The request is currently on hold. Europe already has enough corrupt officials.
