Roma activists accuse MEP Dzhambazki of discrimination

Roma activists are to file a complaint to the Commission for Protection Against Discrimination over a statement of MEP Angel Dzhambazki. Their discontent is caused by a video message published in the social networks where the Bulgarian MEP insists that Police checkpoints are set up again in the residential districts populated with Roma people, because “the inhabitants of these neighborhoods are potential carriers of the infection”. The activists called on Angel Dzhambazki to apologize publicly to the Romani people in Bulgaria.
