EU lawmaker calls for Qatar decisions to be reconsidered amid corruption inquiry
Guardian, 13 Dec 2022
Members of the European parliament from the Greens/EFA faction say some of the recent decisions made regarding Qatar should be revised. 'I really think we need some kind of committee in the European parliament that looks back at the decisions that have been made that are linked to this alleged corruption scandal,' says Hannah Neumann, head of delegation for relations with the Arabian peninsula. 'And yes, maybe we have to reconsider some of the decisions that have been made.'
The parliament moved on Monday to strip one of its members of her role as vice-president after she and others faced criminal charges over allegations Qatar lavished them with cash and gifts to influence decision-making.
