25/01/2023 | 16:19:26 Thank you, Madam Chair. Excellent pronunciation of my name. Esteemed colleagues, It was mentioned here in the debate by the Greek colleague, that South-Eastern Europe or the Balkans has been a powder keg – or called the powder keg – of Europe. I would put it a bit differently. The south-east of Europe has been an exporter of instability, and unfortunately still is. We in Croatia, me personally, and all of us, should be concerned with the recent developments, the tensions rising, the messages... 13/10/2022 | 16:14:48 Thank you very much. Dear Colleagues, Often when we talk in this hemicycle, we talk about the values of our institution and let me just quickly remind you what those are: democracy, rule of law, and indeed, human rights.

I too have visited Ukraine this summer in the framework of the parliamentary platform United for Ukraine. We are parliamentarians from across the European and world countries, supporting Ukraine and lobbying for Ukraine. So... 12/10/2022 | 19:14:35 Dear Mister Speaker, Dear Colleagues, Let me start by thanking the rapporteurs for their excellent work. I hope that your visit to Croatia was an informative one, that you gathered all the information that you needed, and indeed your input is very valuable for us. Discussing this report, I want to discuss something else, and that is how to protect migrants but also protect our countries. How should we do it? How is the migratory flow to be controlled? Some colleagues mentioned here that the... 11/10/2022 | 13:07:39 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) A clear European perspective for Western Balkans is of outmost importance, now more than even. The war in Ukraine has reminded us how fragile peace is. The Western Balkans region has historically been an exporter of instability, First World War started in the region but there are also many more recent armed conflicts, genocides and atrocities that took place in the region. Balkans has historical been an arena of conflicting interests of...
