A hostile act? This is denounced by the environmental deputy Pouria Amirshahi, after being denied a stay in the United States, as indicated The Parisian. The elected official of Paris learned earlier this week that his visa request had been rejected after an investigation “Abnormally long” And despite obtaining a written note from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. According to him, it is “The fruit of a political decision of the Trump administration”.
He intended to go to American territory to participate in an international project, aimed at forming a “Digue” against “The extreme right” And “The expansion of neofascism”. This initiative must bring together opponents in several countries led by conservatives or nationalists, such as Hungary, Italy, Poland … or the United States. Several French deputies are involved: the socialist Keloua Hachi, the communist Elsa Faucillon or the Macronist deputy Eléonore Caroit.
“While the Heritage Foundation can go everywhere in Europe, we, who want to create a progressive international, we are prevented”
“For the first time in more than two hundred and forty years of relations between our two countries (…) a French deputy is declared persona non grata”wrote Pouria Amirshahi in a press release. He thinks he see “A signal as clear as it is freezing” of the administration of Donald Trump. “While the Heritage Foundation can go everywhere in Europe, we, who want to create a progressive international, we are prevented”adds the environmentalist to the Parisian.
