Imprisoned Italian Activist Ilaria Salis Runs for European Parliament

Ilaria Salis, an Italian activist currently imprisoned in Hungary, is a candidate for the European Parliament with the Greens and Left Alliance. Despite being unable to campaign, her father, Roberto Salis, spoke on her behalf at the Strasbourg Parliament, highlighting her motivation and goal to resolve her situation. The road to election is challenging as Salis faces limited communication and restrictions, but her candidacy aims to secure parliamentary immunity and ensure a fair trial. If elected, she could face a suspension of immunity request by Hungarian authorities, but aims to advocate for her innocence.
