In this explosive speech, Daly declares that the war in Ukraine is a \u201cNATO proxy war\u201d and that EU sanctions are punishing European citizens more than Russia. Daly questions the very foundations of free speech in modern Europe, warning that the labeling of dissent as \u201cpropaganda\u201d is silencing critical voices and suppressing democratic debate.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"EU Parliament Erupts as Clare Daly Labels Ukraine War a NATO Proxy Conflict | APT\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/thdnG3GEKhE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2 Jul 2025 &#8211; \u201cIn a time of deceit telling the truth is a revolutionary act.\u201d \u2015 George Orwell &#8211; Irish MEP Clare Daly delivers a critique of the EU\u2019s crackdown on dissent and declares that Ukraine is a \u201cNATO proxy war.\u201d She questions the very foundations of free speech in modern Europe.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[47],"tags":[2914,2009,1268,2376,1762,278,923,961],"class_list":["post-298164","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-short-video-clips","tag-anti-nato","tag-anti-war","tag-european-union","tag-freedom-of-speech","tag-ireland","tag-russia","tag-sanctions","tag-ukraine"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/298164","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=298164"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/298164\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":298170,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/298164\/revisions\/298170"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=298164"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=298164"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.transcend.org\/tms\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=298164"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
