The ongoing judicial proceedings concerning the mayor of Istambul are part of an evidence-based investigation led by independent judicial authorities. Unfortunately, recent statements reflected or reflect a biased and premature judgment, undermining the principle of non-interference and attempting to exert political pressure on Türkiye's... 30/01/2025 | 17:15:26 Thank you. Dear President and colleagues, As a parliamentarian with roots in grassroots politics, advancing women’s involvement in economic life has always been deeply important to me.

How can we build a world where peace, justice, and prosperity are... 03/10/2024 | 17:57:43 Thank you, thank you. Dear president and colleagues, this time I will be speaking German. Mister President, dear colleagues, Ensuring safe, healthy and sustainable food is not a privilege, but a fundamental human right enshrined in international law and essential for global peace.

As many of you know, the war in Ukraine has...
