Long-serving Nationalist MEP David Casa has insisted that fighting in the European Parliament for what is best for Malta even if that contrasts with what the government thinks, does not make one a traitor.
He was replying to claims made during the debate on the citizenship scheme that the Nationalist MEPs had betrayed their country.
He said his many years of service as an MEP was an advantage for networking and achieving results in the European Parliament.
