EU Parliament Bans Amazon Lobbyists

Amazon lobbyists have been banned from the European Parliament until further notice after an internal body unanimously decided to withdraw their badges, following the US firm's failure to cooperate with MEPs. The ban was supported by various political groups and civil society organizations, with the possibility of reconsideration if Amazon shows willingness to cooperate. This is not the first time such action has been taken, as in 2017, Monsanto lobbyists were also barred for similar reasons.
