Armand Memma
Armand Memma is a former candidate for the European Parliament who gained attention after being fined for yelling at Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, during her visit to Finland in June 2024. He was penalized 110 euros for 'insulting a public official' after questioning her remarks on freedom of speech. Memma has publicly stated that he believes his punishment raises serious concerns about democracy and free expression in the EU, arguing that peaceful protest is a fundamental human right. His case has sparked debate about media freedom in Finland, as he alleged that local journalists were prohibited from covering his situation.
