Italian activist Ilaria Salis, who was arrested in Hungary, has been granted immunity after her election as a Member of European Parliament (MEP). The plenary session of the European Parliament will soon decide on the suspension of her immunity. Following her release from house arrest in Hungary, Salis held a press conference where she expressed her dedication to addressing social issues and advocating for various causes. Salis specifically mentioned her intention to work on behalf of prisoners, immigration, and the conditions of young people, covering topics such as precarious employment and education.

Salis refrained from commenting on the upcoming vote of approval for the president of the European Commission, as she is still evaluating information to form an informed opinion. Regarding her own legal case, which is still ongoing, Salis faces the possibility of up to eleven years in prison for allegedly attacking far-right militants in Budapest. The Hungarian authorities may request a waiver of her immunity, which would need approval from the European Parliament. Salis hopes that the European Parliament will defend fundamental rights, the presumption of innocence, proportionality, and the rule of law. She emphasizes that she does not seek to avoid the legal process but desires fair treatment in accordance with the principle of proportionality.

The delegation of Fidesz, the party of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, criticized Salis’ presence in the European Parliament, labeling her as a criminal and asserting that Parliament should not be a refuge for criminals. Despite these criticisms, Salis remains committed to fulfilling her duties as an MEP and advocating for the causes she believes in. Her focus on social issues and dedication to addressing challenges faced by various groups demonstrate her determination to make a positive impact through her role in the European Parliament.

The case of Ilaria Salis highlights the complexities surrounding legal immunity for Members of European Parliament and the challenges faced by activists working in different countries. As Salis navigates the legal process in Hungary and seeks support from the European Parliament, the importance of upholding fundamental rights and principles such as the presumption of innocence becomes evident. The outcome of the decision on Salis’ immunity, as well as her ongoing legal proceedings, will have broader implications for the protection of activists and individuals facing legal challenges in Europe.

Salis’ determination to continue her advocacy work despite the legal obstacles she faces underscores the resilience and commitment of activists in pursuit of social justice. Her focus on amplifying the voices of marginalized groups, such as prisoners and young people, reflects a dedication to addressing systemic issues and advocating for meaningful change. As Salis engages in her role as an MEP, her experiences in Hungary and interactions with European institutions will shape her approach to addressing social issues and promoting justice at the European level.

In conclusion, the case of Italian activist Ilaria Salis shines a spotlight on the complexities of legal immunity, the challenges faced by activists working in different countries, and the importance of upholding fundamental rights within the European Parliament. Salis’ commitment to advocating for social issues and her determination to seek fair treatment in accordance with legal principles speak to the broader struggle for justice and human rights across Europe. As Salis continues her work as an MEP, her experiences and interactions within the European Parliament will shape her efforts to address pressing social challenges and promote equality and fairness for all individuals.
