21/04/2026 | 11:47:05 Thank you, Mister President. Dear colleagues, I would like to thank Ms Elisabetta GARDINI for this report, which tackles a subject that is crucial to the vitality of our democracies. The observations she makes are more than worrying, both in terms of the seriousness of the violence committed and the fact that it is widespread and commonplace throughout Europe. I would also like to stress that this phenomenon spares no democracy, and it is perhaps even the oldest ones, such as the United... 02/10/2025 | 16:49:20 Thank you, Mister President, Dear colleagues, This is the fourth time this year that our Assembly has debated the continuing collapse of democracy in Georgia.

Yesterday, France... 01/10/2025 | 19:03:17 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to thank our colleague Mr Eerik-Niiles KROSS for his report, which reminds us that not all Russian citizens support Vladimir PUTIN's authoritarian regime.
