you're watching the w.'s coming to live from but up next a special program ahead of the european elections. but france twenty four took office first time voters in or european union member states what they want from their representatives stay with us for that a seat at the top of the elephantmen is a fight. with europe big idea. what's become of it. what will it look like tomorrow. keeping for a better future isn't enough to europe requires a power conscious of. the actions twenty nineteen may twenty sixth on the. how they can do this especially if they face the voters any. to you i'm catherine

nicholson. at france twenty four and i'm max huffman brussels bureau chief of the thank you for joining us here at the heart of europe at the european parliament in brussels where there are just a couple of weeks to go down before the e.u. elections and we are handing over control so you devices which are valid fronts in full and system radio station are advised radio i have been out across the city young europeans who have a thing for the first time after all it is about their future they have the most to lose or to gain from these elections that some are already labeling as among the most crucial in recent memory so it's only fair that they get to ask most of the questions to our guests let into d.c. that it's time to find people he will be tackling things that questions we have with us today and i commend the current from portugal with the socialists and democrats great thanks being with us and right next to her souter who is

a senator with the greens right here in belgium she also has a real job if i may say she's a professor of ecology in ghent and she might not have time to do that in the future because she's running for the european parliament as one of the. of the greens. across the other side ross abel central good to see here is a former genie a minister for it's only for the european union as don't think this way in fronts however for him anyway might cause delays. this also is a centrist fiercely for a european list and also happy to have a deal with and susan member of the biggest political group in the european parliament and poised to remain so the european people's party she's also the chair of the environment committee which will be very important for the discussion later on he runs off i know panelists joining us from germany in good. standing full of fun right shall die chimes party a.f.d. with the a f d the great pit the european parliament tell it so as katherine said

earlier we asked first time voters all across the continent about what was important to them and unsurprisingly there was a lot of return about opportunities for young people's studies jobs and one of them really really struck us. from greece and this is what she had to say. let them stop and posing a stereotype policies aggressive policies against other nations who do not agree with their ideology it's what we saw in greece but also elsewhen europe let them understand that we have turned the page we once on a tyrant and brotherhood between nations not intolerance racism and hatred. after that from greece with her question a country where unemployment still stands at about eighteen percent currently of course there has been a lot of anger as we know in greece directed towards other member states for their

role during the eurozone crisis particularly germany for example of course anger as well towards the european commission for its role in the management of that crisis and the commission currently dominated by the european people's party so we will come to our representative here first i do you out of early and as bill says that greece will put under aggressive policies against other nations like that if we know that this is a failing in greece because it was a tough time for everyone there but it's true that the budgetary discipline imposed by europe on its member states is absolutely necessary to protect people's money to protect people's savings to protect the economy of a country so i do believe that in indiana and this policy of paying back for more safety at a national level. but this is still a topic for young people i'm not surprised and it will be like like this for a while been them we also have to say with these young people in greece that we

increase the funding for all use related policies so you see it's not like just putting some rules stuff rules on one hand and not giving incentives or active policies or on the other hand so a lot of money on the rasmussen flows on us on employment programs related so i would say she has still to. wait and see the results in a month in portugal proves that actually some of these policies were wrong and that part of it yes and that the punitive part of it and that indeed by. investing in in. sumption and in investing in the people we will while at the same time keeping the balance the books vallance was the right way and that's what has been bringing back our youth that was forced to emigrate with the austerity

policies back and i think is the youth in portugal like anywhere they want of course job opportunities this and jobs not precarious jobs has its children very much the norm and of course this means quality education also to face the challenges that are imposed by the the changes in the digital world will resonate investing in europe's youth i would like to hear what mr burke has to say about that because that would mean that countries like germany would have to pay more into countries where you have high rates of youth unemployment or you want board with this wealth that's already happening. austerity is an integral part of the. conjuring is of measures that's been dreamt up by the european central bank have the commission to rescue the euro the euro doesn't suit anyone it imposes all stare and tear you know not only no must because whether your

toe. with the same foreign usual is for the euro is hard guarantee i'm afraid if i could just finish the euro is far too high for countries like greece and its exchange rate is far too low for countries like germany what we presently have is a system whereby the south of europe is largely deindustrialized germany is required to make transfer payments so what eases the whole hey what do you produce what we do are all those young men or big well you need benefits or euro. headed to the part of the way that diagnosis of the problem that's the euro so we want to leave the euro we want to design. of the current state of the currency union that's a first start and then it is up to each contraire to well if there's time why are these and the and also i would say of the european union over the internet

part of the whole system and i would say that germany it's not actually paying or because the modern policies put in place by this european commission where for example to attract in private investment through the european fund for strategic investment and we attracted private investments of two hundred billion creating three hundred some thousand new jobs so it's not germany paying for new jobs or for the unemployed people in greece they're more the financial there is mostly i don't create many germans however generally it's mine for that i could i'd like to be added to see if i may however they are not really it really means that if you're going to italy has had problems in the euro is a crisis as well you're standing on the sort of trans national list of when a song one thing that's the opposite of what mr beck won't say you wanting more europe not less i want to better europe i certainly don't want the euro which has

made a serious mistake and they're and they're evaluating and there is the meeting the social impact the very negative social impact of the very people it was during the crisis and i don't want to europe which is what are they do we just said i mean germany is the biggest beneficiary of the euro the because of the future of the single market and it is clear that we should go because the young lady was saying it to the pillar of europe which is three directly and so we've seen that we have to go back to political and social ecological story directly within the rupee you because the only way to grow old strong it is clear that germany on one side there will be on people's park on the other side beer huge responsibility for the for the sentiment of the young lady which is very spread around europe a sentiment where we have lost the a.d.l. firstly dowry. the idea of the social dimension of our bodies yes again because i just had to bring in the greek government bears the main responsibility for the sentiment of that young boy you know i would have to say was not to say that he

certainly didn't you should have been often already to see whether they're going to govern all the good government be a huge responsibility by the shock therapy as being almost suicide for the unicef ok let's insert a couple more first time voters that are just it will come to you after we've heard from harlow from slovenia and yon who's from croatia and you know i'd like to know whether you'll continue to encourage young people to study abroad and increase scholarship money will you encourage them to meet people from other countries a voice this new video. production will be able to progress i would also stress the importance of maintaining peace and freedom. and improving employment opportunities for young people drew a shot of a modern lucrative and. currently has youth unemployment rate of twenty three percent. what would you do if you really had the power to change things there yes well first of all we have the youth guarantee of course and it should be implemented should be absolutely mandatory in all member states to be implemented

and we think that european social fund can be used for the youth employment initiative which has already been put in place if i'm correct eight point eight billion euros have been directed to that and this is very good but we need a mechanism so that if there is an economic crisis where young people are affected in the first place immediately funding from the source right out as i have and they are not in immediate economic crisis still we have twenty three percent youth unemployment what do you suggest well to increase all measures needed to get this you will guarantee in place which is making sure that young people after four months of graduation or unemployment immediately have the possibility to have a job further training or education this must be put in place much more effectively than it has been and one of the reasons why it's not been successful in all member states is because in many member states it has not been accompanied with social measures that are in important to make this realization this is

a priority in terms of their ety youth unemployment is the first thing that we need to tackle mr back wasn't through up the early years but i think this probably goes in this direction where you can respond to what you were trying to say earlier correct that's fair enough and if i'm not going to be interrupted this time i'd be more than we cannot help find. we've been hearing a great deal about it that is invest in its programs here i think it may be useful if i remind everyone and our audience of the ambitious program the european union launched into namely the soup. old lisbon agenda i'm quoting according to the lisbon agenda europe should become and i think i'm quoting him here the most competitive and dynamic knowledge based economy in the world by two thousand and ten and the yardstick for basi us and east asia europe has failed

resoundingly the euro is still hard. to do with the euro all along feudalism so yeah a little i will not argue of europe this is. a region of the world only japan is matching europe growth for the lower level at a high level it means you have a high level of stagnation but that wasn't the programme outlined in two thousand and i mean if what we've been listening for what we've been hearing from these young voters is that they are obviously discontented at the established policy of more state intervention of inflating away the costs of bank rescue rescues and of saving a current set that has failed these holidays. must have failed so that it isn't the only then the only one i read. yet i mean why we are. going to mobilize a sure no i mean i guess we can. rightly that's why we are not follow following the

established policies of state intervention and keeping a currency union alive thanks if you notice how much we've got to lower taxes and same issue because some of the policies have failed yeah it's all over we need to change the policies to make indeed europe correspond to the aspirations of the citizens but it's ridiculous to advocate that we should get rid of europe we need europe we need europe in this into the pendant then globalize well we need the dimension of europe where we can through which you can intervene to regulate through millicent's of the global regional if you say that the euro is the. problem it's it's not because we have too much of it is because we have europe european financial union without a fiscal union let's talk about fiscal justice in europe and then if you don't have if you just have a financial union a monetary union without a fiscal union without a political union we didn't present last option either you're a parent. had we as i think one thing that i mean the gentleman wants to destroy

europe won't destroy the eurozone was the get out of the european union me it is very clear i will i don't i don't need to answer to him because of the position of the korea like to answer to the young young people was and it is clear that we need a europe which multiplies of course unities and what they're waiting for is example there is a big success story in europe which is around means. not the. most because we want to use small hardly that's like a station that there aren't any benefits the privileged few and use what i was saying as we went in as most of the social inclusion it was in there as most of the people who can't afford it without the family going right you little and these why we need to triple their insurance or things for us afford it because it's a choice why if you don't fall in the fall we could have that we. have all of the you bastard the big success story of the union nine thousand young people here yes

it's a triple the value to be twenty seven million i mean last year that rate is no one even you know anybody true it's not easy because you should know that even though you have him parliament in the commission or out of work being done his course laying creasing the budgets exactly because on this kind of policies that you are a doubling the reality the last thing you said cover you guys it's not easy but we propose. we were you know you can't govern you know trying to government think they are going countering the government when they are you know i remind you that my government when i was i mean it's that you know. i know who guided by the resources around was and i was actually a rookie i mean. and i mean are you just like my dear would say or have been or are actually fairly british champion though i let you go thank you so you know everybody had on day seven to see. me live must maurizio never anything i was i mean i was in there thinking no he was fine i suppose that's where i will come back and most of that would later on we need to move on right we do need to move on

there's plenty of course we can say about the economic section but of course the second part of our debate something that's very much been huge for your patience for so many young people all around europe and the world the climate emergency we can hear from first time fades christiane he's twenty one and he is from denmark. but it could be as well how can you be so on and be sure when it comes to taking responsibility for our future but why do you let member states get away with doing so little to make the switch to renewables why are you doing now to create a future we can all live in. gummer's you were part of the grand coalition in the european parliament the social democrats and the conservatives with that exuberant yemen you're not here for the people's party well it's an official that's why i said it's an official and clear accusation here from a from a young man that you're not doing enough why aren't you doing and i understand that young people are very happy we recently received great to talk about you and she is right there is no planet me we absolutely need to be serious about fighting climate

change and mitigating the consequence of the that thing to a less consuming type of life so everybody questions why don't we only war doesn't the will of money you don't care i'll admit doesn't appollo we do enough about it was parliament cares and does and as one quite proactive about the problem is actually in the council where the things up locked parliament has been quite ambitious and my colleague actually can't tell us much more about you as to be honest there are these three european commission's putting forward legislation to tackle the climate change issue very consistent in their life five years we have the u.t.s. is all we're doing enough they're doing enough that's what you know i'm not saying we are doing enough but we have taken huge steps and what we need now we have to keep an eye on how these policies are implementing because they're just adopted but you can't say we we didn't do and it has been said there was a bit of i don't judge on how europe is doing on the entrenchment only eighteen and no european member state is on track to meet it yeah it's true and it should be not

a lost opportunity next week in this summit because at that summit of the heads of states they should decide on the national debt i mean contributions so that the new york when they go and report at the united nation. to present each member state with its national determine contribution and it's not on the agenda or at least i haven't seen it so it's true that at the council level there he's a reluctance people to tackle more decisively if you say let's hear from the greens great represent you've got much more ambitious absolutely no go there than currently but is this really achievable we have from the extension really and they would say for example get rid of petrol and diesel cars within a couple of decades can europeans really accept that well the cost of doing nothing will be much higher than the cost that we need now to make that transition and i wouldn't call it a cost but investment it's an opportunity it has been calculated that greening the

economy will provide jobs so people that only believe in economy should also be convinced that this is the right thing to do we can and innovate and set the example all over the world but as greens in the parliament we have been most ambitious that's true and we have calculated our plans we can show the a realistic even the commission has now said that we can go to fifty percent emission reduction by twenty thirty we want to go to sixty percent we have calculated that we will have to do that if we want to achieve the perrys agreement levels so we can do more and it shouldn't cost to people to normal people should be done and so there's a real going on the european level of the greens are not set to gain any seats at the moment if we believe the polls now a party that is set to gain. from germany and i said yeah well let me a second here let me. since your party is most likely going to be rather successful in the upcoming elections for the european parliament what are your plans to say.

the planet where we've heard a great great many professions of faith. now i'd like to introduce some logic into this discussion. not hide and are not rational faith and we conclude science from our safe from attack well we haven't heard much of scientific evidence as far as i know nothing. i'm not denying any either. as far as i know germany for example is responsible for two percent of c o two emissions i don't know the figures for the e.u. as a whole let's say they are around ten percent. on that basis for a minute i'd also i'd like to ask a number of questions if it's around ten percent it could be age or fifteen then the question is what do you what effect do european policies on climate change have on world emission as an argument to do nothing well it has to have an effect otherwise it's me a symbol is that it has an effect and i gave an example china now has been

installing its own system the world is looking at europe you can we can set an example we can innovate and we can set the standard itself we'll be following what china is doing if i may i but nevertheless i would say that something it was mentioned it is an opportunity for new business models and for a new economy which is more sustainable and if we did that germany's case i don't know about the percentages of one hundred but i know that burning a lot of coal and this has to stop because there are a ton of gives like you know buzz as it was mentioned like a new kind of economy which is more sustainable and carbon free and this is the future and the young people are asking for that they are indeed asking for it not only when it comes to saving saving the planet from climate change but also when it comes to other topics i mean the european union often sees itself as a front runner for example take the ban on well the number of single use plastics

that was in the. i acted at the beginning of this year so that should be enough shouldn't it well our first time voters have a different view here on fabio from germany. thank you for the ban on plastic straws that's great but we could do a lot more in sweden they planned three new trees for every one that is cut down why can't we do that everywhere in the e.u. that would be a great idea right. to do. that than from germany speaking theirs on target say i'd like to come see you he's talking about pan-european environment initiative national harmony you're representing a transnational group that wants more europe closer ties is this something that is really achievable given the very different many as you say you. don't know what we have to do. there are the various agreement and we have two reasons objectives reason exactly we need to give our said small financial means in the union and more

political clout on the global scene this is why let me say we propose to create a finance climate the bank to write direct private savings on the project we meet the target of the paris agreement and we think that that we have to play more as united act on the global scene because as it was saying we are we have the need there and we may and must remain the leader on an issue which makes a difference for the young generation in terms of i think and he said that when we saw losses i talk about more resource when somebody they talk about the more i should use our money more and more iraqis know yes i mean it's always if you have to question you have to wait for my answer because the question was to me and so the resources are for privacy if you read the right privacy and being on the sustainable project creating a new kind of found a bank and also defending our interest in the war we want to introduce a carbon tax on the product which are made outside europe and we do not respect that they would undermine the standard these are way. to push also the other

partners to play by the rules and to play by the object of. my question directly. because the chair of the you're really going to have your brain on the irony of just a second yeah we know there's pressure from the streets we mentioned earlier how many visits from lobbyists do you get to say but say the car lobby we can't do this because otherwise our business i think you raised you raised the plastic for example and they didn't get any visit so you should know that there is a huge acceptance that we have to cut down plastic because we have a lot of the same thing how is it goes from lobbyist let's say from the person producing so many and the questions out that even do you know what just just what you're doing i according to your own just a second just a second i know the truth that the industry is recognizing the problems and they are ready to find solution to act on that it's the same thing with their missions

on cars with the emission generally on the other d.t.'s with i having just the same with the plastics and you know the problem is really huge legislative steps but it has to come also from the industry and the society we can't we won't do it by themselves so isn't would like to repeat the question how much pressure do you get from industry i wouldn't pressure from something to not act on this subject and i myself i'm confident i mean of course it's natural to have debate with a view on who's involved to find together solutions but i've read exactly today that for example the cosmetic industry is sinking to taking absolutely all the micro plastics small beds the cost of my fix voluntarily out and that is going to fight against. something that is generally about industry i'd like to see us i was very happy to parties target you say would help. eighty thousand jobs in belgian i

mean in what timeframe is is that really achievable it's true if you want to achieve our goals by twenty thirty by that time in achieving them we will have created all these jobs this can be calculated and it's not the greens that say that so a lot of experts say that but can i say something about all the good intentions that i hear on the other side. in your lax coherence in its policy it is still subsidizing fossil fuels a lot as we know it is not looking i'm going to change the climate of doing that because your air money and yes. by one hand you are also this nation to crack that he'll do it by the other hand we are i mean i think the argument i will give an example is on balance and also using but also the example of the parliament as you know there is a negotiation to start up the discussions again the greens have put on the table an

amendment to ask that we ask the usa to agree again on the paris agreement before we start that was not here we have of course and this is why i'm on the micro was the only one in the european council for both of the opening of the n.c.a.a. but again i think all these forces were going to sort of you know you were on a macro path of saying in the part of let me stay with that instead of saying what this side of the other side in the new european parliament why don't we build up good alliances by project yet and if we are where are the fires you know that we are and i mean from your party i know that it's not all going well as you know there is only about one of these i mean i wouldn't say that even if you can hear a leader on the fight against climate change are you saying you know it's all and on the ground it was already lying yeah you're right and i'm just not interesting to the start at all i'm just refraining from interrupting. contrary to general practice. the young european who posed the question want to plant trees i should

like. like to say that the german government on trade for example is cutting down lots of trees in order to install its windmills all around the come all the run the country replacing woodlands with industrial landscapes and then as a second point if i may i've said already that many of these vague ideas. will be rather symbolic unless we can establish to sayings first of all they must have a meaningful impact on emission levels worldwide and in addition and that links up with what's been said already they must be able to set an example which ship which will change behavior elsewhere if i can so if i made. a misstep do you disagree with your own party's line on that no i'm not i'm not i'm merely outlying . outlining it the need for emissions reduction or do you disagree because your

party says climate protection is a misstep the climate always change that the world existed i don't think that's official party policy toward what we are saying that is a manifesto i know well that is. very selectively naturally we are not necessarily for it well that's mainly. it was an issue and i can tell you here if we receive satisfactory answers to those two questions and if it in addition it is established that that is not socially divisive and that since it could not make it affordable then we can talk about everything but i don't see a rush you're just you're going see this is a hot topic and quite frankly we could spend a whole show on it without a problem for probably a couple of shows but since we want to hear more from the first time voters let's bring one more thing which is sort of the over arching topic of this european election which is how many seats will the so-called. populous gain and in which way

will be able to change maybe the european union or bloc proceedings in the european parliament. here's a story from hungary a country that has been governed by one of those parties the fetus parties for nearly a decade. and that's that i'd like to know what they think about the fact that right wing parties are gaining ground across europe the european union at risk from the rise of the far right and populism story from angry speaking than our one european figure has very much set himself up front and center as an enemy of populists is the french president emanuel mccall we've heard from him he said that he sees this as a battleground it's in court he lists and progressives that brings in quite logically to sandra goard see you running on a minimum icons ticket as i've said but people are voting for these parties which are being labeled populist again in their vote share surely that means these

parties are providing arms that the more traditional and more mainstream are not these are not providing questions and sometimes the right question for example the bracks you saw they say they were saying let's think they control and it is true that today politics needs to take back control and translational issues things about fight against climate change things they are migration things about things to fight against terrorism but to take back control of their wrong they provided their own grounds for because they say we get out of the you know we go back and it's not just the policies if we want to take back control of this issue we need to build up the unit with that we don't think and we need to also is sovereign and democratic europe because there are sovereignty we can be done on this front i mean it was only at european level going to back you're based in london where you're a professor you've campaigned in favor of brecht's it's i know that you want to see the european parliament done away with in fact is there a clash share that you believe your party your side of the argument can win. we

want war democracy. the european parliament is directly elected it is directed elected but it doesn't have a divorce i'm here to see everyone i mean here at milan with the euro with the german constitutional court which in. judgments has stated that the european parliament has insufficient democratic legitimacy by physicians on that is the following the european parliament and doubted blair pays more regard and articulate spa pillar views more than the european commission or the european court of justice it does so less well than national parliaments either do or could do therefore you absolutely correct that's in our party program but i'd like to. cut the wings of both yet appear commission and the court of justice before we abolish the european part of that letter and why the party your protein standing for this election is

for the european parliament they should say ok we do not because denies they use usefulness or the them most of the european parliament so we are not sending their health care like they are only very like no that is i'm afraid there is no that's never called religion if i may just answer this question on a game as has me trying to make a point five hundred million citizens or one solidarity we're understand that for the kind of transnational challenges we face we need europe there's no way they all of a nation state can actually well provide for regulation on the digital for instance or for instance on fighting off shores fighting back sevens we absolutely need to add your opinion and of course the european parliament has already demonstrated since the lisbon treaty that it has clout it can increase that it wasn't actually believe any of the letter after meeting him saying it so it's been brewing for instance in the tax area that lots of things that were. in this last money and i

put it to you that the european parliament cannot propose the same laws that when they learn how to do your can imagine plain said the commission to do it and that's what we did for instance with our inquiry committees on looks leaks on panama papers on paradise papers we actually lead the commission today could be initiatives on regulation. is needed it's just me when i say something to the question i think that the brics it has been a wake up call as well and an opportunity so if you ask is the european union in danger because of the right thing populist i would say well they are attract and we need and you can take the question seriously that they were there not a danger because a lot of people now understand how important it is we were afraid after the break so that other countries would do the same nobody now so unless i know nothing and i have been sold yes i have made it and i think i never said i. believe over it i made respect these are the people who are putting the questions to you we have new

customers from lithuania he's concerned about your a skepticism around the e.u. take a listen. to the possible how do you intend to sway people away from your skepticism how will you convince people that deeper european integration is the path to. since you want me to go away how are you going to do this we're partners and i will be the one that's trying to do this yes those are the two that we need as i was saying we needed so random across europe because our sovereignty today means to change things for the common good twenty five or to change things to reshape things and to to achieve a common objectives and on certain issues for example government governance of the global finance governance of digital only a european union is the right that the but it must be also democratic so what is widely in line here are still the times in listened to for example a migration migration it is the legacy european story diary and it is that the an acceptable position of people like to be there are one of the european peoples

party or both because. of my two salvini or two facing a phenomenon which he can handle only together they decide not to play by the reality it is easy but they know they are nationally they are european with a european money and they are nationalist when it comes to refugees and sorted out and that's of these exciting it is to back you to set an important sentence you said because they listen indeed now the latest polls show that the top topic for european voters is no migration only fifteen percent said that so maybe you're selling the russia. well i think many i can't speak for each and every patriotic liberal party in europe but. my position is that we are trying to listen wherever it's possible and where we are trying to reason wherever it's possible it's not even true that we'd like to

abolish the e.u. here and we are in favor of well ten per corporation we'd like to leave it where it has manifestly failed in the areas well i gratian and in the euro to fight we all have together all along very well in favor of a swing state history has been a ball of has been a more felicitous one meaning you think i gratian to instill hate and to instill fear in people gratian is literally and he would like to use a fine if we are wise the policies of the name lee on jobs on the sick of the austerity policies and that's a helps as well to explain the populations it's not by chance i'm not j john emotion has an a tax question at the top of their. heads i can see. their side by christianity and to europe. to address this problem seems by solidarity through you know you're inspired by asking for a lot of fundamental rights is lying respect of the right. and then you have to go

for a so it was your right it was one thousand from pensioner to before he went off and i actually lost i guess i call the law he wants to fight to the last few years and as we hear it here we don't have to hold it well as we say. good for the people we should give them protection europe has been a new liberal project much too long and far away from the citizens it's good for the companies and the multinationals we need to give it back to the people and give them social interaction and sparing we are also in general society was don't need all new blood alcohol or i don't i'm so thrilled by your live i. the unit of the they are in. the mind of nations not because the gentleman is the light of michael salvini is going to strike alliance with the band and they talk about europe of nations there you are winning they don't really know you we have surveyed the europe we have the it is the europe of the veto the europe of unanimity of the council these europe of nation this is europe which again was. very clear you euro

is a failure is already there is a thing which is a failure we are coming to the end of the show i'm going to have to move us on just time left for a flash round where i will ask each of you to be very brief we'd like to have our next first time in just one sentence maximum ten seconds each and we will cut you off so you have a listen. from spain. if i had to say something to european politicians i would ask him to please stop thinking about his own interests and to think about citizens and the people my question to a politician in brussels would be does he remember why he ran for office because. i don't have as will come to you first very much so and that's why i fight for against corruption for human rights for respect for the rule of law for you in solidarity and that means a better europe more europe has it's a medical doctor i went into politics. because i was worried about the environment
