Frontex’s impunity must end, says The Left group in European Parliament

14/10/2022 (Agence Europe)Published on Thursday 13 October by the weekly Der Spiegel, the report by the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) on the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) “shows that the agency has been systematically involved in human rights violations and their concealment at the EU’s borders”, according to a statement by The Left group in the European Parliament. The group asked that the issue be put on the agenda of next week’s European Parliament plenary session, in the presence of the European Commission and the EU Council. With a budget of €754 million in 2022, Frontex is the EU’s best-funded agency. The Parliament will vote on Tuesday 18 October on the discharge of the 2020 Frontex expenditure, and The Left will vote against it. Link to the OLAF report: https://aeur.eu/f/3m3 (LC)
