US EditionMEP and Staffer Report Each Other to the Police After Alleged Assault
- On May 21, Swedish MEP Alice Teodorescu Mwe and a staffer from the Swedish Left group engaged in a physical altercation in the European Parliament premises.
- The conflict arose from opposing views on the Israel-Hamas conflict, with both parties accusing each other of instigating the incident, and reports differ on who struck first.
- Teodorescu Mwe was filming the staffer who had been aggressively filming and photographing her, leading to a brief scuffle that required intervention by security guards.
- Surveillance footage confirms the incident and initially supports Teodorescu Mwe's account; she described the event as a "terrifying situation" and has requested protection from Parliament authorities.
- Both the Left group and Teodorescu Mwe have filed police reports, and the European Parliament is investigating the episode as a priority under its zero-tolerance policy for violence.
