Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex is not only the shepherd of the Roman Catholic flock across the globe, but a symbol of moral courage and clarity in a time where such compasses are increasingly needed.   His voice is one that Europeans of all faiths - and none - listen to, appreciate and respect.  On behalf of the @Europarl_EN, I reached out to the Holy See to reaffirm our invitation for the Holy Father to address an upcoming Plenary Session of the European Parliament. We hope to welcome him in the near future and listen to his message for Europe.

GUILTY. A verdict that brings us closer to securing justice for Daphne Caruana Galizia. Now we must see convictions for those that masterminded the murder and covered it up. They are very long overdue. @AzzopardiJason @ComodiniCachia

#DaphneCaruanaGalizia was assassinated on 16 October 2017 because her investigative work exposed corruption in the Maltese Government. For Daphne, for Malta, for justice! ✍️ 🇲🇹 ⚖️ #EPlenary #RuleOfLaw

#DaphneCaruanaGalizia spoke truth to power. On 16 October 2017, she was assassinated for her investigative work into Maltese Government corruption. Seven years on, there are still unanswered questions, and the silence is deafening. #RuleOfLaw #EPlenary

The bombing that killed Daphne Caruana Galizia seven years ago continues to cast a long shadow over Malta. “Daphne’s work served democracy. Daphne's murder is a wound for Malta,” says @peteragius_eu. #EPlenary #RuleOfLaw

A car bomb brutally assassinated Maltese investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia on 16 October 2017. “We have a government that corrupts everything it touches,” says @DavidCasaMEP. #EPlenary

SEVEN YEARS AGO TODAY, DAPHNE wrote her last words: “the situation is desperate…” Her words put on us all a huge responsibility to address the root causes of that situation and the festering consequences of her assassination. timesofmalta.com/article/sev…
