Депутаты Европарламента получат новую церемониальную ленту за счёт бюджета ЕС

New clothes at the expense of the EU: members of the European Parliament will wear an official ceremonial ribbon, Euractiv writes. The European Parliament will introduce a new element of the official dress code for deputies - a ceremonial ribbon in the colors of the European Union. The accessory is made of blue moire fabric and decorated with 12 golden stars of the EU flag. A special storage case is also included. It is assumed that politicians will wear the ribbon at particularly important official events. The cost of one accessory will be €78.66 (more than 7.5 thousand rubles). Deputies will be able to purchase it at the expense of office payments, which they receive monthly from the EU budget. "This is not the money of the parliament, it is the money of members of parliament," says Kosma Zlotkowski, a Polish member of the European Parliament. However, he himself, according to him, does not plan to use the new accessory. @izvestia
