25/06/2026 | 15:45:52 It's okay? Yes, I'm sorry. Well, I will speak in Spanish. The fact is no country has yet managed to guarantee equal access for men and women to justice. It is essential and it's a challenge for all our countries. To achieve this, it's necessary that we work on socio-economic situations, existing prejudice within the system, the role played by different vulnerable groups: migrants, women, disabled people, minorities, LGBTQIA+, invisible minorities or groups who are afraid to admit to their... 25/06/2026 | 11:52:14 Thirty years ago, I was working for Médicos del Mundo (MDM), and we were providing health care for people who didn't have access to healthcare. We were just providing emergency attention and pregnancies, and so on. We were voluntary and we provided healthcare. This didn't last for very long because, then, in 2012, the Popular Party government excluded people in irregular situations from healthcare. This actually led to recourse to the Constitutional Court. And, for me, the point is that... 22/04/2026 | 13:22:32 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) The Istanbul Convention is the first legal instrument—made possible thanks to the drive of the feminist movement—that obliges those who ratify it to implement policies to prevent and eradicate all forms of violence against women. It is worth highlighting the countries that have still not ratified it. It requires, indeed demands, genuine political will and guaranteed funding. The Spanish state ratified it in 2014. In the Basque Country, we had... 21/04/2026 | 20:19:52 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) I must begin with the necessary and explicit condemnation of any form of violence, especially violence directed at politicians, who serve the community. An attack on a politician is an attack on the community, on society, and on democracy itself. And I know what I am talking about. I am Basque, and for far too many years we suffered as the terrorist group ETA murdered, kidnapped and extorted those who thought differently. More than a... 29/01/2026 | 17:36:40 The fact that, in the year 2026, the 21st century, the fact that today we are speaking about banning conversion practices, which, by the way, are reminiscent of acts of torture, of the inquisition, seems surreal. I mean, it could almost be considered a joke if it weren't such a serious matter, if it didn't affect so many people. Conversion practices are harmful, they are delegitimised by medical, psychiatric and psychological organisations. Their intention is to change people's sexual...
