20/06/2023 | 16:54:02 Thank you, Madam Chairman. Mr Paul GALLES, rapporteur, Ms Sviatlana TSIKHANOUSKAYA, The question we are addressing today is undoubtedly of the utmost importance: the challenges the Belarusians are facing in exile. It demands our urgent attention and response. This is why I am delighted that it has been placed on the agenda for our discussions, and - I must say - I am also proud that the rapporteur comes from my parliament and my country. We are about to enter the third year since the... 26/01/2023 | 18:43:43 Thank you, Mister President. Dear Colleagues, I have had the opportunity on several occasions to visit the Republic of Moldova and to devote a little bit of my time to its history.

And yet, its evolution is a double-edged sword. While digital culture is a source of enormous opportunities, it can also harm the most vulnerable among us: our children and young people. The expression "The world at your fingertips" aptly describes the current context. More than ever, we... 27/01/2022 | 17:01:12 Thank you, Madam President. "Everything that is dead as fact is alive as teaching." This quote from the famous writer Victor Hugo perfectly reflects the importance of history education in creating an enlightened, transparent and open society. The study of history allows us to discover the origin of our norms and values, to learn from the events of the past. It helps us develop critical thinking skills, encourage respect for others and challenge preconceived notions. History is a flexible...
