19/04/2021 | 19:24:37 After reading carefully the draft report and draft resolution, I have discovered important positive parts that I will appreciate. Also at the same time I am saying with regret that some aren't correct, which I will mention immediately. The positive part. It's extremely important to relaunch the attention and Europeans' political commitment concerning the protection of national minorities in a complicated Europe. Secondly, it's important to make reference to these objective European standards... 25/01/2021 | 12:53:17 Thank you very much, Mr President.

Hate speech is a growing scourge, which is poisoning the public debate and fuelling deeper divisions in our societies. Political discourse based on divisive propaganda, especially when promoted during electoral campaigns, is spreading all over Europe like a Trojan horse for overcoming our social cohesion. The... 09/04/2019 | 16:50:30 The report is timely and more than necessary to clarify a number of issues deriving from a future establishment of a European Union mechanism on democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights. I thank the rapporteur for her wonderful contribution, and I definitely support the proposed recommendations. As mentioned in the draft resolution, the existing co-operation between the Council of Europe and the European Union institutions and agencies, starting with the Fundamental Rights Agency...
