This week’s European elections from 6 to 9 June will be the first in which Scottish citizens who firmly rejected Brexit in 2016 referendum will not be able to vote.

The EU is about to move to the extreme right in the elections.

The launched “Speak Up For Scotland” campaign has asked MEP candidates to pledge that they will work to ensure that any application from Scotland to rejoin the EU is welcomed.

I fully support Scotland’s comeback to the EU, either as a member state if their citizens wish Scotland to become an independent state and a member state of the EU, or as part of the UK if Scotland would remain part of it and there would ever be a new decision by the British people to re-enter the EU.a

 – Stated Jose Sole, Former Spanish MEP (member of European Parliament), who is not standing for re-election.

I wish to express my solidarity with all Scottish citizens who have been deprived by Brexit of a vote in this election, a choice that the Scottish people rejected by 62% in the 2016 referendum on the UK’s membership of the EU.

– Commented French MEPs David Cormand.

The campaign is crucial given the planned EU enlargement and aims to support Scotland in the next European Parliament.

While the EU looks East, with accession talks with Moldova and Ukraine, let’s not forget about Scotland, which was taken out of the EU against its democratic will.

– Said Nina Jetter, “Europe for Scotland’s” coordinator.

Today, the key questions remain: Will the powers of the UK and EU hear the true voice of Scottish people? Or will Scotland continue to straighten fight for democratic recognitions of its views.
