23/04/2026 | 11:31:13 Thank you, Madam President. Ladies and gentlemen, Here we are at the topical debate entitled "The need to respect international law, peace and stability in the Middle East". Very well, we are well aligned with the very identity of our institution, respect for international law, everywhere, at all times. We're used to saying that the Middle East is complicated, which is a rather easy, rather lazy way of putting it, to excuse the fact that international law is not applied there at all or not at... 22/04/2026 | 12:55:50 Thank you, Madam Chairman, Mister President, More than 30 years after the Dayton Accords put an end to a bloody war, the Bosnians need support and understanding. The logic of division is still at work. Internal fractures are all the more dangerous in that international geopolitics can intervene at any time.

Wars, wars of invasion, wars of grabbing, no matter the type, the retreat of international law and the implosion of what, until recently, we called the international community. In this context, your country is geographically and humanly situated on one of the fault lines. In this context, Minister, President Maia SANDU recently said she was in favour of reunification with Romania, a member of the European Union. This, I... 21/04/2026 | 12:48:03 Thank you, Madam President. Mr Secretary General, I would like to ask you about the nature of the Council of Europe and the necessary changes you have mentioned. The Council of Europe can only function effectively in a world where we believe in and promote the values of multilateralism. We need only look around us to see that the world in which our institution was built is faltering. The Council of Europe must not become an island repeating its mantra, deemed outdated by a large number of...
