The leader of the eurosceptic Patriots for Europe group has called on fellow MEPs to establish a European Parliament committee of inquiry on transparency and accountability in the wake of recent corruption scandals including the ongoing investigation into alleged influence peddling involving Chinese tech giant Huawei.
In an email made public by Daniel Freund (Germany/Greens), Jordan Bardella claimed such a committee could address “allegations of corruption, money-laundering, abuse of power, undue interference in legislative processes” and other breaches of the rule of law in the EU institutions.
