22/06/2022 | 18:26:42 Thank you very much Mr. President, Austria is a neutral country and will remain neutral. 75% of the population and up to 85% want it that way, and it will stay that way. But that does not mean that we do not raise our voice and that we are not a great power in the field of humanitarianism and refugees. I thank all the authors of these reports for their content, and we have tried to set special accents in Austria. There was a home in Ukraine for mentally and physically handicapped children; we... 22/06/2022 | 10:29:02 Thank you, Madam Chair. On behalf of the Socialist and Green Groups, I would like to start by thanking our rapporteur very, very much for this important and stirring report but also Ms Ute Steyer from the Great Synagogue in Stockholm.

Who would have thought that we would come to a time when we have to look with great concern at a democracy fatigue? People who, if you do polls, would rather have a little dictator than a grinding democracy. That is an alarming sign, and the rapporteur also said that. That's when you have to think: how could it come to this that we have this democracy fatigue here? There are already two or three things that come... 26/04/2022 | 17:57:18 Thank you, Madam Chair. First of all, like the previous speaker, I would like to thank the rapporteur very much for this committed, comprehensive report on behalf of the Social Democrats, Greens and Democrats. This is a report that makes you think, because ultimately this report says, which is also a social fact, that poverty is inherited. It is a question of where and into which social stratum, into which social family I am born that determines education, that determines career opportunities...
