International Mother Language Day

The idea to celebrate International Mother Language Day was the initiative of Bangladesh. It was approved at the 1999 UNESCO General Conference and has been observed throughout the world since 2000.

Bulgarian MEP infamous for anti-Roma rhetoric gives Nazi salute on the floor of the European Parliament

Bulgarian MEP Angel Dzhambazki has given the Nazi salute on the floor of the European Parliament (EP). His actions were captured on video and he has been accused by leading EP officials of gross misconduct. 

Dzhambazki, who is also known for his anti-Roma statements, used the Nazi greeting yesterday during the debate on the rule of law in Hungary and Poland. He has since claimed he was just "waving" to the Parliament.

German MEP Manfred Weber, the leader of the European People's Party group, which is the strongest faction in the European Parliament, has called that alleged "wave" a "Hitler salute". EP President Roberta Metsola said: "The Fascist salute in the European Parliament is unacceptable."

"This offends me and everyone in Europe (...) This gesture is part of the darkest chapter of our history and must remain there," Metsola has written.
