Snippet:
The EU has banned a former aide to Vladimir Zelensky from entering the European Parliament. Yulia Mendel, who was Zelensky’s top communications liason from 2019 to 2021 and has been a consistent critic of her former boss, had been invited to speak on the same day Ursula von der Leyen delivered her state of the union speech.
