Fine Gael MEPs ask EU High Representative to publicly condemn police brutality against US citizens

Warren/PA Images FIVE FINE GAEL MEPs have called on the EU’s High Representative on Foreign Affairs to publicly condemn the excessive use of force against US citizens.

The 46-year-old was laid to rest in his hometown of Houston earlier this week, more than two weeks since a video showing his final moments, when a police officer kneeled on his neck for almost nine minutes, went viral. “The death of George Floyd was appalling and the circumstances surrounding his death were deeply upsetting.”

“We must be vigilant against racism and racial inequality in all its forms, look hard at our own societies, listen to those speaking out about their own experiences, and tackle the scourge of racism head-on,” the letter continues.
