“Calling for violence is punishable. The complaint has been submitted to the Waregem police. The Prime Minister continues his campaign,” Leyts mentioned. Belgium is because of book federal elections on June 9.
In keeping with the inside track channel of the Flemish crowd broadcaster VRT, the presenter at native Waregem1 radio station mentioned: “To all those who consider shooting Alexander De Croo, but don’t dare to do so because of the security of that guy. You see that it is possible to shoot down a prime minister. So I would say: Go ahead.”
In a remark, Waregem1, which airs from the Belgian province of West Flanders, mentioned it had right away suspended the presenter, arguing that “he completely misjudged the timing and context and therefore could not make this statement.”
“Yesterday there was a misplaced statement at Waregem1 by an employee. The presenter says that he meant this in a playful way, but it didn’t come across that way. He apologizes to the listeners and Waregem1,” the remark mentioned.
