Taking to social media, Labour MEP Alex Agius Saliba called out the decision by the European Commission to cancel the Maltese language course due to a lack of applicants showing interest.

‘Like every other official language of the European Union, employees in the institutions have the right to apply for training to gain knowledge of it’, wrote Alex.

‘Coincidentally, it was only Maltese that was excluded from this training. Therefore, I requested that this course be reopened as soon as possible for the applicants who expressed interest.’
