Labour Party official candidates for next June's European parliament elections have had talks with the European Socialist Party in Brussels.
Among others candidates Glen Bedingfield, Louis Grech and Joseph Muscat met Hannes Swoboda, vice-president of the European Socialist Party, and Antony Beumer, general secretary.
Accompanying the Maltese candidates was senior delegate George Vella.
The other MLP candidate, John Attard Montalto, was not with the group as he was attending other commitments abroad, the MLP said.
