European Parliament President David Sassoli has demanded a “clear explanation” from the US caretaker ambassador in Brussels for why a leftist Greek MEP has been denied a visa to travel to the US, EURACTIV has learnt.

Greek MEP Stelios Kouloglou, a member of the European leftist group, has not been granted a visa to travel to the US even for missions that have been part of his parliamentary activities since he was elected as an EU lawmaker in 2014.

The latest incident was several weeks ago when he was refused a visa to travel to the UN General Assembly in New York.
