29/09/2026 | 11:43:13 Dear colleagues, When I listened to some of the contributions here, in this institution which defends human rights and the rule of law, I was reminded of the poet, Mr Pablo NERUDA, who said he was saddened to see that the world does not change. Because we want to bolster and uphold human rights and respect for human dignity within this institution. I'd like to first express my solidarity with Ceuta and its people. It is a Spanish and European city which has been through exceedingly difficult... 25/06/2026 | 10:33:18 I am going to speak in Spanish. The Spanish government, Pedro SÁNCHEZ, is doing the right thing, respecting the values which the Council of Europe represents. The rule of law, human rights and migrants' dignity.

In order to finish by 7:00 p.m., I will interrupt the list of speakers at about 6:50 p.m. to allow time for... 28/01/2026 | 16:53:39 Dear colleagues, We ought to be saying Palestine rather than Gaza. Because to say Gaza is to fragment and to depoliticise, whereas saying Palestine recognises a people with rights. Gaza is a territory, Palestine is a political subject. Palestine is no longer in the media as much these days as it was a few months ago, but the plight of Palestinians continues to be intolerable and unbearable.
