Freedom of speech has disappeared in Europe – ex-Austrian FM to RT panel
(www.rt.com)https://www.rt.com/news/598925-kneissl-europe-freedom-spief/Freedom of speech and other key liberties have disappeared in Europe and will not return any time soon, former Austrian Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl has said during a panel organized by RT as part of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF).
Europe was previously “a dreamland” for people in other parts of the world due to its “constitutionalism, freedom, equality of women and men, security and welfare state,” Kneissl said during the discussion on Friday.
“Well, sorry to say, but all that is gone… what Europe was is gone, and I deplore it,” she stated.
