12/10/2022 | 18:51:34 Here you go, sorry. Thank you, Mr. President. Thank you, Madam. The issue of migration and asylum in particular a recurring theme in our states and in the Council of Europe. Far too often it is used as a populist argument and an outlet for many political forces. In this Council, on the contrary, we try to give a voice to those who do not have one and who are all too often used as pawns in geopolitical strategies and political agendas. This is why our Group welcomes the two resolutions... 11/10/2022 | 18:24:39 Thank you, Madam President. Ladies and Gentlemen, The issue addressed by our colleague Mr Momodou Malcolm JALLOW is sensitive. You can see that straight away when reading the reasons behind this and the resolution. It crystallises the war of words and definitions, a strategy which is being cunningly used by those who knowingly deny a reality which is quite simple in our societies: If you have black or dark skin, if your name appears to be Arabic or African, if you are of the Muslim religion... 20/06/2022 | 16:10:26 Thank you, Madam President.

He explains very well how social reproduction takes place, the one that makes it difficult for someone from a social class to get out of it. In his works, La Reproduction, La Distinction, Les Héritiers, he shows the... 15/03/2022 | 11:24:30 Thank you, Madam Vice-President. Each and every one of us is stunned by the decision we have to make today. So many years of negotiating and fighting to keep the Russian Federation in our institution, because each and every one of us believes in dialogue, in the cardinal values that make life bearable here on earth, that it is not the brutal law of the strongest and of weapons that governs our life together. Several eminent members of our Council and of my country, Switzerland in particular...
