10/10/2023 | 17:42:04 Thank you very much Madam Chair, The concern in Europe for extreme right ideology is absolutely natural. Europe suffered from that during the fascism of the 20th century. It was a big tragedy for the Europeans. We understand it, but we should also take into account that the evil empire, the Soviet Union, also created tragedies for the people who were under the control of this evil empire: Holodomor, the red terror, collectivisation - we are all well informed about the real face of left... 26/01/2023 | 18:47:20 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Ladies and Gentlemen, The people of Moldova express to the world what they want, electing a young dynamic president who chooses a path of reforms, changing Moldova according to European standards and intensifies the accession process. Immediately, Moldova faces a lot of problems, problems related to energy, problems related to very sophisticated technology using oligarchs for destabilisation situation in Moldova, stopping reforms, not allowing the provision of anti... 26/01/2023 | 17:23:56 Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I would like to express gratitude to the Chairman of the Monitoring Committee. Very important information, in some cases in very good detail. What I would like to raise, one of the biggest problems which we are suffering in Europe now, it's in some cases lack of respect to the international legal system. Rule of law, territorial integrity of countries. Some careful attendance, any toponymic things, because what we have now? We in Europe are now in a situation... 27/04/2022 | 19:42:32 Thank you very much, Ms Chair. First of all, I'd like to congratulate our rapporteurs for a very important report. The world is changing really very fast. Now, in Europe, in the centre of Europe, we were witnesses that even some public events becoming different. COVID-19, social situation now changing, even the form of protests. Sometimes just regular citizens go to the street. Thanks to the TV and new technology, helps us to see that old people was beaten by police violently in the centre of... 24/06/2021 | 09:51:33 Thank you very much, Mister Chairman. It's a really very important issue, discussing when migration growing in Europe. We have a really simultaneously growing of anti-Islamism, anti-Semitism, racism, because of clash of cultures, clash of civilisations. In this situation probably the European model of tolerance doesn't work. Because, what does tolerance mean? First of all I don't like you but I'm patient. In situation when different cultures really pacing each other and creating a... 22/04/2021 | 12:18:32 Thank you very much, Madam Chair. I think that this document has had endless discussions about it, based on, really, the political interest of some countries. [These are] some political forces which had competition with Turkey, which are trying to use issues of democracy, human rights, to punish Turkey to create a problem and obstacle. It is like a continuation of this competition,which countries lost in different parts of the world and which are using the Council of Europe for revenge. Look... 19/04/2021 | 19:03:27 Thank you very much Madam Chair. The leading idea in Europe or toward a ethnic religious minority, racial minority, is tolerance. It means I don't like you but I'm patient. We definitely believe that only respect, only intercultural exchange will change the environment. The Nuremberg process made a strong decision not to allow the glorifying of Nazism and SS. But in the middle of Yerevan they have a monument to a Nazi commander who killed Jews and Soviet citizens in occupied territory. That's... 30/01/2020 | 12:18:45 Thank you very much, Mr Chairman. Soviet Union really was an evil empire. And probably the half-life of Soviet Union is even longer than a Chernobyl nuclear rest. Similar situation in all Soviet countries. The same problem. Same problems for media opposition. Our Armenian colleagues now accusing Azerbaijan. Just a couple of days ago the Armenian police attacked the house of the chairman of the Constitutional Court. A lot of problems, but we here in Council of Europe always discussing about... 29/01/2020 | 10:44:43 Thank you very much. One of the biggest achievements of civilization is a model of secular state. It means that all citizens have equal right and religious out of state policy, but, at the same time, religion is free. My country became the first secular state in the Eastern part of the world, and we have traditions which are a little bit different than in Europe. What we have in Europe? Tolerance. It means that I don't like you but I'm patient in behavior with you. Our tradition is based on... 26/06/2019 | 18:54:25 Thank you, Madam Chair. The killing of an investigating journalist is a big tragedy. It is an attack on freedom. We know that freedom has a very high price. My small country is fighting for freedom and, after the occupation of 20% of our territory, hundreds of thousands of refugees and the killing of children and women, we have understood that freedom is really very important.And we have to fight for that. The same happened to Georgia: 20% of Georgia occupied, 20% of Moldova, 20% of Ukraine...
