Storm in the European Parliament: Sharp speech against Trump and Israel

During a European Parliament session, Spanish MEP Irene Montero, from the far-left 'Podemos' party, delivered a harsh speech directed at former US President Donald Trump's 80th birthday and Western foreign policy. According to Asaf Rosenzweig, News from the Big World, Montero used the stage to attack the European Union leadership for its attitude toward Trump and the policies of the US and Israel.

In her speech, as reported by Asaf Rosenzweig, Montero leveled heavy accusations at EU representatives, calling Trump harsh names and labeling him "Mr. Genocide." The MEP questioned what Europe has to celebrate, referring to her claims regarding "illegal aggression by the United States and Israel against Iran" and the need to sever relations with Israel.

Montero, known for her anti-establishment and far-left views, claimed in her speech that Europe has failed to prevent regional crises, and described the current reality as one where Trump is "building a Roman empire of his own." The remarks were brought to the attention of the Israeli public also through the 🎗️Israel News IL🎗️ channel, which provided the update on the incident in the European Parliament within this report.
