The European Parliament has passed a resolution condemning Russia's attempts to interfere
00:06
in EU decision-making. According to the resolution, approved by 433 with 56 against, Russia is
00:14
pushing to rebuild its network of allies in Europe, and that is a big danger for democracy.
00:22
Russia now is recovering, Kremlin is recovering to reorganize their, how to say, proxies in
00:31
different areas, because in the very beginning since this war, large-scale war started, we
00:37
saw that those proxies were silent. Now they are much more brave again to speak, to be
00:45
outspoken.
00:48
Russian meddling in EU policy came to light when a Russian newspaper accused the Latvian
00:53
Russian-speaking MEP, Tatiana Zhdanova, of being a Russian secret service agent. Speaking
01:00
at the plenary session on Tuesday, she rejected the charges.
01:03
They say Tatiana Zhdanova is an agent. Yes, I am an agent. An agent for peace, an agent
01:13
for Europe without fascism, an agent for minority rights, an agent for united Europe from Lisbon
01:21
to Ural.
01:24
One Romanian MEP proposed further sanctions against any MEP found to be cooperating with
01:29
Russia.
01:32
If someone in the European Parliament is working obviously for and with Putin, that means that
01:39
they shouldn't get the chance to speak in this house because their voice is the propaganda
01:44
voice.
01:45
Danoka, who had already been banned from standing in the EU elections in June, is now being
01:51
investigated by the EU Parliament itself.
