01/10/2026 | 11:18:20 Dear President, Dear colleagues,  Thank you warmly, rapporteur Ms Aurora FLORIDIA, for this very timely report. The summer of 2006 left no room for doubt. Europe is warming twice as fast as the global average. We have seen record heat waves, rivers running dry and devastating wildfires. Yet in response, we see dangerous political backlash across Europe, including in my own country, the Czech Republic. Far-right and anti-systemic forces deny the climate consensus, enable the spread of climate... 30/09/2026 | 11:38:15 Thank you very much. Mister President, Colleagues, Information is power. And today we are living in a time of information warfare where narratives are weapons and those who control the flow of information shape the fate of democracies. That's why this report is so important. And I would like to extend my thanks to the rapporteur Ms Valentina GRIPPO for this report. Media pluralism across Europe faces a dual crisis. Offline, we see structural pressures, political and economic media capture... 24/06/2026 | 12:06:22 Thank you, rapporteur, Ms Deborah BERGAMINI, for your vital report.

Furthermore, research published by the journal Science this year revealed that we are no longer facing simple bots, but sophisticated AI swarms designed to create a synthetic AI... 24/06/2026 | 10:58:21 Thank you very much. And I would like to thank Ms Yevheniia KRAVCHUK for this vital report. The impact on social media, and particularly on radicalisation, is immense, and we can see it. And the report rightfully refers to it. The digital pluralisation is systematically used to silence women, especially those who are visible in the public space. Female journalists, especially those who challenge the traditional narratives, are met with gender disinformation. They are not professional critics... 22/04/2026 | 13:39:09 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear colleagues, Dear Rapporteur, Ms Zita GURMAI, thank you for your wonderful reports. My country, the Czech Republic, is one of the countries that, despite being among the most secular societies in Europe, has not yet ratified the Istanbul Convention. Here are a few reasons why that is the case. The Czech Senate rejected the ratification in a heated vote. What unfolded in the public debate can be described as a long-running disinformation...
