03/10/2019 | 15:59:58 Thank you very much, Madam President. It has been said during the debate that this debate is about Russia. Is it? I thought this debate was about freedom of speech and free elections. God knows there are other countries that also have situations to answer for in this regard. We are here to protect the inhabitants of the countries. That is the reason we are here. We are here to protect Human Rights and freedom of speech. Those are values that are threatened in many of our member countries. So... 02/10/2019 | 11:15:36 Thank you Mr Chairperson. The irony of this report is that the ombudsman is here to protect us as citizens and our rights, but now it is our turn to protect the ombudsman and to look after the ombudsman institution, and protect the ombudsman in persona. Mr Chairperson, witnessing governments across our continent actually working against their own ombudsman is both scary and sad.

Earlier in this debate, Mr Markus WIECHEL from Sweden tried to explain the backlash that we are discussing here today. He explained that the backlash on human rights has something to do with immigration. Well, I have to say that, as a woman, I have absolutely nothing to thank the far right movement or far... 24/06/2019 | 18:46:15 Thank you, Madam Chair and réporteur. Ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues, a politician that is concerned about Human Rights is obligated to fight for the people who have politicians that don't respect them. For the people that are occupied, for the people that are thrown in prison just for believing what they believe, for the people in Ukraine, for the people in Georgia, for the people in Russia. During this debate, we've been told that Russia has no values, that Russia has no sense of...
