Belgian federal prosecutors yesterday announced arrests of several people in a corruption probe linked to the European Parliament and the Chinese company Huawei, suspected of bribing EU lawmakers.
The arrests came as an investigation by Le Soir newspaper and other media said lobbyists working for the Chinese telecoms giant were suspected of bribing current or former European Parliament members to promote the company’s commercial policies in Europe.
