“Step up the pace” There is a clear concern amongst MEPs from @EP_Justice that the sense of urgency for reforms in #Malta has been lost.
I join my colleagues to call for the full and correct implementation of the recommendations of the Venice Commission and GRECO.

The Labour Government congratulates itself over landmark "reforms", judging itself on fairytale criteria and its own spin, not the independent reports of international bodies.
The truth is that it has not moved an inch in the right direction.

30 years ago Judge Giovanni Falcone was murdered in car bomb near Palermo.
As a courageous opponent of the Mafia, Falcone was entrusted with many cases involving organised crime.
He championed the rule of law and remained consistent throughout his life.

Today, in the European Parliament, we gathered to celebrate mass in memory of a friend and colleague, Remo Sernagiotto. His passion for Veneto failed to ever waver throughout his work in the Parliament. Farewell, colleague.

Today, 83 years ago, Giovanni Falcone was born in Palermo. He was assassinated by the Mafia in a bombing for his successful prosecution of hundreds of mafiosi in the Maxi Trial. His example reminds our democracies of the need to defend the rule of law against threats from within.

Journalists deserve protection no matter where they are, whether they work in peacetime or in war zones. We need accountability for Shireen Abu Akleh's horrific killing, and for the targeting of another journalist on scene. The press is never a legitimate target.

.@ZelenskyyUa, in his address to the Maltese Parliament, warned #Malta about being used by Russian oligarchs as a safe haven from international accountability. He condemned passport sales, and appealed for asset seizures their property.
Robert Abela offered thoughts and prayers.

'They Blew Her Up' is a poignant evocation of the crime that was the assassination of #DaphneCaruanaGalizia in 2017, through the real accounts of people who lived it. It shows in Brussels tonight, in conversation with @mcaruanagalizia.

On #WorldPressFreedomDay, my thoughts are with #DaphneCaruanaGalizia, murdered in a culture of omertà and impunity. Through her life and work, the European Parliament remains inspired to stand by #journalists across Europe and to continue striving for stronger press freedoms.
