08/04/2025 | 11:26:50 Dear colleagues, the very foundations of our democracies are under attack. Freedom, sovereignty, the rule of law: all are under fire. And in Romania, we felt this threat up close. Because in December, our presidential elections were annulled due to multiple issues, a lot of them being closely linked to foreign interference. The use of artificial intelligence, disinformation spread through fake social media accounts, amplifying pro-Russian candidate messages. Illegal foreign financing enabled... 29/01/2025 | 10:21:14 Thank you, Madam Chair. Dear colleagues, As we see worrying trends of democratic backsliding and societal polarisation across Europe, it is critical to reaffirm education's fundamental role in protecting our shared values.

From the very start, I want you to know that clear and great progress has been made by Albania since that time. I will begin my presentation by highlighting the positive developments. While the political environment remains polarised, we can fortunately say that the systemic political crisis that has dominated politics in Albania for far... 11/10/2023 | 20:02:49 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear colleagues, I think today's discussion is improperly called a "debate" - because a debate includes opposing arguments and I do not think anyone here today has a different opinion on who is the victim and who is the aggressor. I condemn in the strongest of terms the barbaric and brutal terrorist attacks that Hamas has launched on Israel and I am appalled by the horrors and pure evil these so-called "men" could inflict on innocent people...
