Eva Kaili, vice president of the European Union's parliament, was suspended on Friday by her party group after Belgian police carried out several raids linked to an investigation into suspected influence peddling at the EU assembly by Qatar. The center-left Socialists and Democrats group in the European Parliament said that it "has taken the decision to suspend MEP Eva Kaili's membership of the S&D Group with immediate effect, in response to the ongoing investigations."
