10/04/2025 | 16:25:36 Thank you, Mister President. Dear colleagues, For about 19 months, the world has been witnessing a modern-day genocide whose effects will spread to generations. On these platforms and other international platforms, we are sadly experiencing a period of shame that has suddenly rendered meaningless all the civilised norms that humanity claimed to have established after all the hardships it has endured. Just like in past examples, the effects of what happened in Gaza during this period will also... 09/04/2025 | 20:00:51 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2)   I think here, beyond the discussion of political positions, who’s on which side and which ideology, a bizarre double standard approach prevails.

So what should the issue really tell us? There is a century-long imperial continuity between the Balfour Declaration in 1917 and Trump’s official acceptance and declaration of the... 01/10/2024 | 10:58:19 Thank you, Mister President. While the subject of freedom of expression is expressed in terms of principles and values, from a European perspective, on the other hand, it has turned into a framework that contains serious contradictions in recent times. Here we encounter a framework for freedom dominated by political projections and political baggage. For example, while the most serious insults and humiliations against the sanctity of religion are tolerated within the scope of freedom of...
