01/10/2024 | 20:37:35 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2)   Since we last convened, the situation in Gaza has deteriorated significantly due to Israel’s indiscriminate bombings and obstruction of humanitarian aid. The Israeli government has shown no restraint in blatantly committing war crimes and crimes against humanity. A study published in The Lancet estimated that the death toll in Gaza could exceed 186,000, factoring in indirect causes like starvation and lack of healthcare. Mothers in Gaza... 27/06/2024 | 20:39:51 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2)   Dear President, Dear Colleagues, Regretfully, the report falls short of keeping an accurate track of historic facts and concentrates mainly on the events of 1974, while omitting to elaborate on the ethnic cleansing campaign perpetrated by the Greek side against the Turkish Cypriots between 1963 and 1974. The events of the 1960s were not just merely “inter-communal clashes or conflicts” as stated in the report. Nearly 30.000 Turkish Cypriots... 27/06/2024 | 19:15:49 Dear President, Dear colleagues, The situation in Gaza has deteriorated from horrific to unspeakably dire since the last time we convened in this Assembly. Israel bombed Rafah 60 times in 48 hours following the order of the International Court of Justice to halt the Rafah offensive. On 26 May 2024, Israel slaughtered civilians taking shelter in Rafah. We have seen horrific images of beheaded babies, and women and children burning alive. The death toll is now exceeding 37 000 including 15 000... 18/04/2024 | 19:24:32 Dear President, Dear Colleagues, Israel transformed Gaza from an open-air prison to a mass grave for civilians, killing over 33 000 people, including 14 000 children, 10 000 women, hundreds of journalists, aid workers, and doctors, wounding 75 000 and displacing 1.7 million people, and destroying 70% of civilian infrastructure in Gaza. Israel continues to deliberately block humanitarian aid into Gaza. As stated by the vice president of the European Commission Josep Borell: “Israel is... 10/10/2023 | 18:14:45 Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, I would like to start by saying that I strongly support the resolution. I would like to thank the rapporteur for his excellent work on this important subject, considering the fact that far-right extremism has gained very disturbing momentum in Europe in recent years. I would like to emphasise that political leaders and public figures have a responsibility to denounce far-right extremism unequivocally at all times. Hate speech and extremist ideologies should not...
