Reading Time: 2 minutesThe European Parliament should condemn the recent murders of American conservative political activist Charlie Kirk and Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska, according to a resolution tabled by 84 right wing MEPs. The shooting of Kirk in Utah on 10 September and the stabbing of Zarutska in North Carolina in August have been heavily condemned by US President Donald Trump. Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni called it “shocking” and “a deep wound for democracy”, while European Parliament President Roberta Metsola said she was “shocked at the absolutely horrific assassination”. Now several right-wing lawmakers want an official resolution to be voted on by the Parliament, expressing solidarity with the victims’ families and calling for “zero tolerance” toward political and extremist violence. Other signatories of the resolution come mostly from the PfE group, but also from the European Conservatives and Reformists, like Poland’s Dominik Tarczynski, Italy’s Carlo Fidanza, and Sweden’s Charlie Weimers.
