Shortly before the vote on a second term for European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, things got heated in the EU Parliament. Romanian right-wing extremist MEP Diana Iovanovici Sosoaca made several disruptive calls. Chamber President Roberta Metsola did not hesitate to have the lady thrown out of the plenary session…
There were some really tense scenes in Strasbourg. Eight ushers surrounded MP Sosoaca and spoke to her. They tried to convince her to follow the president’s instructions. With an irritated tone, Metsola asked the MP: “How many colleagues will have to come and escort you out of the room?” After a verbal row, she finally left the room.
The Romanian had previously disrupted speeches several times with loud chatter and had put on a muzzle for this. This was also the case when the liberal group leader Valérie Hayer spoke out in favor of the right to abortion. The right-wing extremist held up a picture of Jesus (see photo below).
Parliament Speaker Metsola explained that this was the Romanian’s third disruptive act and subsequently sent her out of the chamber.
Romanian Putin scout
Non-registered MP Sosoaca regularly visits the Russian ambassador in Bucharest and, among other things, prevented Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from addressing the Romanian parliament during his visit to Bucharest in October 2023.
The planned speech of the guest from Kiev was cancelled because Sosoaca threatened a riot. Your party is a splinter of the also right-wing extremist party AUR, which is currently a member of the EKR faction.
