Comments on: Do the Gaddafis count as charity? I think not. It’s crucial to remember that Dalli was an EU Commissioner when he went messing about with money in the Bahamas. https://daphnecaruanagalizia.com/2013/07/do-the-gaddafis-count-as-charity-i-think-not/ Daphne Caruana Galizia is a journalist working in Malta.

Joseph Muscat Labour Government approval and defence of Dalli be damned.

This scandal could somewhat undermine the EU’s democratic credentials should one of its Commissioners be proven to have provided (and may well still be providing) direct aid to a dictator.

So as a matter of principle, and to make a good point both within and outside the EU, Dalli needs to be taught a lesson. Such help to dictators should not be tolerated.

There are other several links within the article. They might be of interest, if one keeps in mind that SNC-Lavellin is involved on a number of projects with Sargas the company John Dalli has allegedly represented in the past.

Maybe his own priest brother?

Libya is in Africa and this society worked under the veil of a charitable institution.

Or maybe from that GM thing that Dalli had approved earlier on along the line?

However, here in Malta you still get people defending him, just have a look at the timesofmalta comments boards.

And why is Daphne Caruana Galizia the only journalist who is reconstructing the various past occurrences and putting these things into context?

A substantial group of people in Malta think of themselves as journalists: come on do your job!

I have lost my faith in the authorities that should be dealing with this. I have a feeling Dalli will just get a away with this as he did in other circumstances in the past.

All he should do now is lie low for a while, if he is capable of that. Disgusting.

We still need to understand which money was involved here.

Was it the money from the snus scandal?

Was it Gaddafi money?

Was it other money?
