100 NGOs Argue Against Holding Elections in Ukraine

The UAE was accused by a left-wing French journal of having hired a private Swiss intelligence agency to discredit opponents in Europe as part of a complex regional cold war with Qatar over support for Sunni extremism.
Socialists and liberals would like to force Italy and Greece to keep their ports open for migrant rescue NGOs, which are frequently accused by conservatives of colluding with traffickers to bring migrants into Europe.
The Spanish NGO denied any links to extremism, but this is not the first time an Islamist group has been featured at the Parliament.
Under a new law, after each rescue, charity-run ships have to request access to the nearest port and sail to it, rather than remain at sea looking for other migrant boats in distress.
The federal interior ministry—generally responsible for determining whose asylum claims are legitimate—has outsourced this task to the approximately 100 NGOs involved in the program.
Parliamentarians exchanged shouts and vulgarities after Doctors Without Borders accused Italy of being responsible for the 89 migrant deaths at sea, despite rescue workers’ claiming professional conduct.
Over 200, mostly leftist, civil society organizations asked the EU not to force them to reveal their funding under the new transparency measure for fear of being categorized as political advertisers.
In Brussels, transparency rules are welcome only as long as they target conservatives, as foreign-funded NGOs fear that by forcing them to disclose their sources of revenue, the Commission will let “illiberal forces stigmatize” civil society.
Those previously hailing the reform as a step against right-wing populism are now flustered by the notion that they too will undergo the same scrutiny of their revenue sources.
