The former prime minister has spoken out about the scandal that has engulfed the European Parliament

The lawyers therefore asked the reporters who were present to make the facts public in order to achieve a fairer trial.

“Kaili is innocent”

Meanwhile, new details from the prison keep coming to light Qatargate scandal, with the former vice-president of the European Parliament cooperating with investigators in the investigation. In fact, Kaili’s attorneys have reiterated that “she has always answered questions specifically and completely.”
