At a time when the world should stand united to end the bloodshed in Gaza, protect civilians and demand justice, we are witnessing something deeply troubling. Political pressure is being directed against international justice. Since 7 October, countless civilians have suffered. People have been killed, injured, traumatised and taken hostage.

However, if we are committed to this objective, we must also be aware of the challenges that diasporas continue to face across member states... 26/06/2026 | 10:54:45 Thank you, Madam Chair. Dear colleagues, I would like to talk about the European Commission's Türkiye Report, which was adopted almost nine days ago by the European Parliament because, I regret to say that, unfortunately, Europe is in diplomatic offside.
