If Prime Minister Joseph Muscat were to remove Konrad Mizzi and Keith Schembri from their respective posts I would be the first to go to the European Parliament to applaud his decision, the PN’s head of delegation at the EP David Casa said.

Interviewed on INDEPTH by The Malta Independent online editor Stephen Calleja, Mr Casa defended the stand taken by the PN to expose the political scandals that have hit Malta in the past years on an international platform.

We are accused of being traitors, he said, but “I would only be a traitor if I do not defend the interests of my country. You may accuse me of not defending the Prime Minister or the government, but it is my duty to safeguard the country’s interests”.

 

The PN is not trying to take political advantage in the international sphere, he added. We are simply talking about the fact that unfortunately there has never been a government that is so corrupt, a matter that has also been confirmed by the latest report of Transparency International.
