European Parliament President
Antonio Tajani told an ANSA Forum on Tuesday that the EU would
not welcome the appointment of Ted Malloch as the United States
new ambassador to the bloc in Brussels when asked about
speculation this is a possibility.
"We are willing to listen to all advice and criticism, but we
are not subjugated to anyone," Tajani told the forum.
"We are not willing to accept insults from people who
probably do not know the European Union and who the European
Parliament has declared not welcome".
Malloch has made a series of anti-EU comments and compared
the bloc to the Soviet Union in a recent interview with the BBC.
