Once again we see the leftist/jihadi lust for violence.
“Swedish MEP assaulted as European Parliament debates Gaza,” by Yossi Lempkowicz, JNS, May 22, 2025:
A pro-Israel Swedish member of the European Parliament, Alice Teodorescu Måwe, was verbally and physically attacked by a civil servant from the Left group in the European Parliament in Brussels on Wednesday.
The incident happened as the E.U. assembly was debating the situation in Gaza.
In Sweden, Teodorescu Måwe is a member of the Christian Democrats, which is part of the governing coalition, and in the European Parliament, she is a member of the European Conservatives and Reformists Group.
While initial reports of the incident were contradictory, European Parliament spokesperson Delphine Colard indicated that the assessment “confirmed the MEP’s version of events’,’ as a CCTV surveillance camera was in operation in the part of the legislature where the incident occurred.
The incident started when the Left staff member, reportedly a Swede of Middle Eastern descent, photographed and filmed the Bucharest-born MEP.
“When Alice asked the person to explain his actions, the person claimed that they intended to publish the images on social media to ‘tell the world what a terrible person’ Alice is,” Natalie Tegelberg, secretary of the Christian Democrats, told Swedish press agency TT.
According to Tegelberg, Teodorescu Måwe asked if it was OK to take a picture of the civil servant, “who then became aggressive and tried to take the phone out of Alice’s hand with violence. In the tumult, the official began shouting and made baseless accusations of assault against Alice.”
The situation quickly calmed down when guards arrived. Everything was caught on the parliament’s surveillance cameras, according to Tegelberg.
Teodorescu Måwe, who left Brussels after the incident, said she will report it to the police and to the parliament’s security department.
Swedish Deputy Prime Minister Ebba Busch of the Christian Democrats party said she is “disturbed” over the incident. “I sat down with a shaken Alice. No one should have to fear for their safety,” she wrote on X…. |
