“Unacceptable behavior last month; sanctions are on the table,” said European Parliament President Roberta Metsola at the opening of this month’s plenary session, commenting on the events of June 17, when center-right forces celebrated the adoption of the regulation on returns. The slogan they chanted was “Send them back,” and Metsola stated that there is no place for bullying in the chambers of the European Parliament.
