ITT we learn that the EU Parliament is so small-time that pretty much anyone can address it - even local politicians. I wonder who's next to address EuroParl? The Mayor of Orlando, Florida? The third assistant director on the Netflix show Stranger Things? Thorthoth?
In 228 years, the U.S. Congress has only had two foreigners who are not a head-of-state or chief-of-government address it (in 1824 by the Marquis de Lafayette and in 1934 by André Lefebvre de La Boulaye, the French ambassador, during the centennial of the death of the Marquis de Lafayette).
