Summary: Another quick video about a worrisome trend; strongmen and thugs have basically captured positions of power — a situation which in turn rewards other strongmen and thugs, putting at risk those who expose their wrongdoing


THE EPO has long been run by corrupt politicians with a dark past. Those people arrogantly assume they’re above the law and they hire people who think likewise. It’s no longer limited to Benoît Battistelli and António Campinos because they brought all sorts of people who enable this and protect this.

We might be led to think that only ‘primitive’ countries do this, but that’s just not the case. Corruption is like a cancer or like a virus that spreads. At the moment, for instance, the meetings in Germany (or over ‘ViCo’ because of a virus) are attended by people who are in effect influenced not by their national duties or citizens but somebody else, even outside their country.

“When one is complicit in a crime one is less likely to report the crime.”These people drum up support for unlawful policies, not just domestically but also abroad. We’ve already been thanked by some people in Macedonia for our coverage regarding these issues. EPO workers too have shown interest; they try to wrap their heads around the fact that the EPO’s Administrative Council simply doesn’t mind corruption; to make matters worse, the Administrative Council actively covers up such corruption. When one is complicit in a crime one is less likely to report the crime.

The EPO needs to massively reform itself. One issue it must tackle is the ease at which votes can be ‘bought’ (or voters commandeered by bribes, usually in countries that are cheaper to buy and are less likely to detect or reprimand for such corruption). More importantly, the European public deserves to know what’s going on; in part, it deserves to also know the role the EU failed to play, in effect joining the cover-up efforts for face-saving reasons. █
