(Washington Insider Magazine) – The Qatargate has been renamed the “clean hands” of the Europeanization. The prosecutor who is conducting the investigation, Michel Claise, is a bit the Tonino di Pietro del Belgium. And as the magistrate of Montenero di Bisaccia is animated by a mystical fury against corrupt politicians, so much so as to invite the Belgian people to take to the streets, for the definitive shoulder to the “First Republic” of Brussels and Strasbourg.
Interview of Toga
One year after retirement, the toga with a passion for the yellows, lets himself be interviewed by the newspaper L’Echo and uses very hard words against his country, suspected of “immobility” in the fight against corruption: “We must ask the question to the political world . I think, as I often said, that there is a blindness that makes the phenomenon in Belgium is not taken into consideration “. On TV, two politicians said, verbatim, that “something should be done” against this plague. “The fact that they say ‘should’ make them almost complicit,” says Claise.
“Incompetence in fighting corruption creates a sense of impunity for criminal organizations”. The reasoning is general, but in the light of the Qatarta investigation, even more so for the MEPs accused of pocketing the prebends and bribes in black by Qatar, Morocco and other countries interested in “directing” European policies, at every level. Claise hopes for the creation of a power of attorney who takes care of financial crimes and an agency that fights corruption, reports Corriere della Sera, “must take into account the executive”, and only to that.
Placido Belgium is painted as a paradise for criminals, starting with drug traffickers: “One gram of pure cocaine is sold for 50 euros. In a year and a half we seized about 100 tons of drugs. Take the calculation”. According to the most catastrophist estimates, only 10-12 % of the traffic passes from the port of Antwerp is blocked, “which is a colabrode”. “The international banking system is involved in recycling. We should think of enormous fines that act as a deterrent”. In the meantime, he explains, the motions of the square are welcome above all of young people, protests in the Greta Thunberg style capable of making it clear who commands that the wind is changing. Belgium and Europe of 2023 are increasingly similar to Italy in 1992.
