"We believe sharing profits with the country that is suffering the consequences of the war that has led to those profits is morally the right thing to do"

To conclude; the reason why we are here as an @Europarl_EN delegation.

National elections are European elections. The outcomes determine who sits on the EU Council. They have to be 100% fair and honest, and the European Parliament should have the means to investigate doubts.
