Question for Written Answer Question for written answer E-002104/2021 to the Council Rule 138 Maximilian Krah (ID), Nicolaus Fest (ID), Tom Vandendriessche (ID), Gunnar Beck (ID), Bernhard Zimniok (ID), Markus Buchheit (ID), Jean-Lin Lacapelle (ID), Filip De Man (ID), Jean- Paul Garraud (ID), Herve Juvin (ID), Mazaly Aguilar (ECR), Hermann Tertsch (ECR) Subject: Difference in treatment between liberal NGOs related to Open Society and conservative NGOs In April 2020, Maximilian Krah MEP submitted a question to the Council about conflicts of interest between ECHR judges and NGOs1. The facts were revealed in a report from the European Centre for Law and Justice (ECLJ), a conservative NGO. The Council’s response was: ‘It is not for the Council to comment on reports issued by non-governmental organisations’. Mr Krah did not receive a satisfactory answer on the nub of the issue. However, when some of our colleagues ask questions based on reports from liberal NGOs, the Council’s answer is very different. For example, when a former MEP asked the Council for its opinion on the Human Rights Watch world report in 20112, the Council replied by saying that it took ‘note of the report by the organisation “Human Rights Watch”’, before proceeding to answer the nub of the question. It would seem that members of conservative NGOs are treated as second-class citizens. Worse, liberal NGOs seem to be protected by the Council despite the conflicts of interest that they create at the ECHR. How does the Council explain the difference in treatment between liberal NGOs related to Open Society and conservative NGOs?

  • Ihre Afd-Delegation Informiert Über Die Arbeit Im EU-Parlament
    Ihre AfD-Delegation informiert über die Arbeit im EU-Parlament Ausgabe #2 / September 2020 2 Liebe Leser, in den vergangenen Wochen ist in Brüssel trotz – oder gerade wegen? - der parlamentari- schen Sommerpause viel passiert. Mitten in der Urlaubszeit leitete die EU-Kommission ei- nen neuen Migrationspakt in die Wege. Um demokratischen Anschein zu wahren, konnten die Bürger auf einer gut versteckten Webseite der Kommission vier Wochen lang ihre Mei- nung hierzu kundtun. Davon machten bis vier Tage vor Einsendeschluss europaweit noch nicht einmal einhundert Menschen Gebrauch. Alles geschah weitestgehend unter Aus- schluss der Öffentlichkeit, bis wir auf diese Pläne aufmerksam wurden, eine kleine Kam- pagne starteten, und auch die anderen patriotischen Parteien hierfür sensibilisierten. In kürzester Zeit erreichten wir hunderttausende Menschen, knapp 2.000 überwiegend ablehnende Bürgerzuschriften gingen bei der Kommission ein – die Eurokraten haben nun viel Lesestoff. Was es mit dem neuen Migrationspakt auf sich hat, lesen Sie in dieser zwei- ten Ausgabe unseres „Blicks auf Brüssel“. Weitere Themen sind die Rede zur „Lage der Europäischen Union“ von Kommissionspräsi- dentin Ursula von der Leyen, die unser Delegationsleiter Prof. Dr. Jörg Meuthen ordentlich zerpflückt hat. Außerdem geht es um die Brandstiftungen in Moria, um Nord Stream 2, um Guido Reils neues Buch über Obdachlosigkeit und um vieles mehr. Wir wünschen Ihnen viel Lesevergnügen!

  • Question for Written Answer E-003824/2019/Rev.1 to the Commission Rule 138 Christine Anderson (ID), Charlie Weimers (ECR)
    Question for written answer E-003824/2019/rev.1 to the Commission Rule 138 Christine Anderson (ID), Charlie Weimers (ECR) Subject: Commission programme ‘Sport as a means of integration and social inclusion for migrants’ The Commission has set up a programme to promote, among other things, the ‘exchange of successful methods for integrating migrants’ through sporting activities. This encompasses various projects such as SFR-2287CF34 in Germany (EUR 240 000) and SFR-A72056BB in Italy (EUR 200 740). How many so-called migrants (broken down by age, gender, country of origin and project supported) are taking part in the programme? EUR 2 million have been set aside for the programme in the 2016-2018 funding period. What results are known to the Commission (with an indication of the survey and evaluation methods) in terms of successful integration? German football is seeing an increase in violent incidents. A whole team (BV Altenessen 06 II) was recently suspended after players and the coach attacked the referee. The names of players would indicate a migrant background (due to EU-data protection rules their names can not be published) Does the Commission programme include measures to prevent similar outbreaks of violence in sport from happening in the context of the projects? If no such measures have been put in place yet, how might the Commission support the Member States in the fight against acts of violence in sport carried out by migrants?

  • Major Interpellation for Written Answer
    Major interpellation for written answer G-001001/2020 to the Commission Rule 139 Christine Anderson, Jörg Meuthen, Jérôme Rivière, Harald Vilimsky, Peter Kofod, Laura Huhtasaari, Jaak Madison, Gunnar Beck, Lars Patrick Berg, Markus Buchheit, Nicolaus Fest, Maximilian Krah, Joachim Kuhs, Sylvia Limmer, Guido Reil, Bernhard Zimniok on behalf of the ID Group Subject: The President of the Commission’s interference in the Croatian elections – violation of the Code of Conduct for the Members of the Commission On Friday 3 July, the President of the Commission Ursula von der Leyen appeared in a promotional video for the Croatian political party Hrvatska demokratska zajednica (HDZ) in the context of the recent national elections. She was filmed uttering the party’s campaign motto Sigurna Hrvatska (‘safe Croatia’) in a corridor of the Commission building, while her official title appeared on screen. This appearance has sparked outrage in the EU, as the President of the Commission is obliged to remain neutral. According to Article 9(3) of the Code of Conduct for Members of the Commission, Members ‘shall abstain from making public statements or interventions on behalf of any political party or organisation of the social partners of which they are members’. The Commission has expressed its regret over the incident, but has also sought to downplay its ramifications. While it accepted that technical mistakes were made 1 , it has boldly claimed that it was ‘the kind of things [sic] which must be permitted’ 2 , thereby implicitly denying that a breach of the Code of Conduct had occurred. 1. With particular regard to its Code of Conduct and the principle of neutrality, what is the Commission’s assessment of its President’s appearance in the aforementioned campaign video? 2.
