26-05-2020
Referring to the contacts established with the European Institutions in the month of April, regarding CESP concerns of exposure of infection of COVID-19 of police officers performing everyday duties, we have received a message of hope and support, from the President of the European Commission, Ms. Ursula von der Leyen.
The European Commission reaffirmed, among other topics, the support to the Member States’ police forces whose tremendous dedication and achievements amidst the COVID-19 crisis are a source of a great pride, respect and inspiration for all of us.
As CESP we express our satisfaction of taking into consideration our concerns and suggestions by the European Commission and we continue to monitor the development of the pandemic situation of COVID-19, as well as all the causes that we defend in our program, ensuring and demanding complete protection of all police officers.
