25/06/2026 | 10:42:27 Thank you, Madam President. In 1848 in the Communist Manifesto, Marx and Engels wrote, "the proletariat does not have a homeland". If that is the reason, ideological current, of the left and the progressive movements for defending migration without any form of legal limit, I could understand that. But, for whatever reason, it seems to me that that's not the case. And if it is the case, the left and woke progressives are insisting on hiding it. I don't know if they are professing that idea or... 24/06/2026 | 12:50:40 Thank you, Chair. This initiative really is a paradox.  If we keep to the opinions of so-called European progressive thought, which in recent years has also taken over large parts of the Partido Popular in Spain, i.e. that the myth of progress, which is illustrated by content ideological thoughts, takes fright in light of the most recent technological progress from artificial intelligence.  The fact is that they are afraid of it, hence this resolution. So it's worth asking why they are afraid... 22/04/2026 | 17:33:12 Thank you, Madam Chair.  By principle, and for reasons of moral integrity, I oppose the death penalty. The political party I am a member of back in Spain, Vox, has never requested the reinstatement of the death penalty in our country. For various reasons, amongst others, the death penalty was abolished by the current constitution in Spain in Article 15, with one exception, times of war, during which times, the Constitution excepts the legitimacy of the death penalty.  However, something which... 21/04/2026 | 20:01:24 Thank you, Mister President.  It goes without saying, at least in my opinion, that the main body of the Council of Europe is the European Court of Human Rights. Why? Because it is a court that functions as such, despite being an international court, since its judgments should in principle be implemented by member states. That is part of the European Convention on Human Rights and the protocols, they have to be adhered to.  In addition, as is the case in Spain, and in many countries, the... 29/01/2026 | 17:42:44 Thank you very much. Thank you, President.  A lot has been said already in this debate. For instance, the fact that coercion, trying to impose conversion practice or any other kind of method, that this would be an offence. It should actually be an offence in all of our criminal legislations in member states of the Council of Europe.  So I don't think there is any need to actually introduce special provisions on this particular type of practice because it involves coercion; therefore, it is...
