Speeches since 2019

24/06/2026 | 19:05:53 Thank you. For thousands and thousands of years, food was a way how to survive for mankind. But when food, especially in times of war, is in the hands of bloody dictators, it's a way of how to give death for millions of people. I want to thank Ms Larysa BILOZIR for her excellent report. I want to thank all rapporteurs because it's the open discussion on themes that was closed for a long period of time. It's not a theme about Ukraine. Ukraine will survive even in the case of war. We have... 23/04/2026 | 11:04:36 Thank you Mister President, Dear colleagues, 10 months have already passed. We have a decision from 21 countries, first of all from our organisation, and our friends from all over the world who have made the decision to start the work of Special Tribunal for the Crime of Aggression against Ukraine. Of course, it's very important that all other countries, first of all from our organisation, and of our friends all over the world to make the same decision. Why is it so important to start this... 22/04/2026 | 19:25:53 Madam President, Dear colleagues, I want to thank my colleague from the Ukrainian delegation for a very honest and brave report. We can analyse this from other and different parts. But it's not a report only about the Magnitsky case. It's not a report only of 17 years of events that have taken place. It's not a report about an exact country. It's a report about a system that the Russian oligarchs' previous regime and Mr Vladimir PUTIN's regime built for many, many years. If it's possible to... 27/01/2026 | 18:12:55 I want to start my speech with a big thanks to all your nations, for all Europe, for the United States and all other countries that saw the threat of Russian aggression, of a new Russian fascism that is growing all over the world. When somebody tried to ask the question and make parallels between the start of the second World War and this period of Russian aggression, I want to answer this question by saying it's not a parallel, because only now, in comparison with the Second World War, all... 27/01/2026 | 16:33:35 Thank you Madam President. I want to thank the rapporteur. I think it's one of the most practical reports, not only because of this report, but because of the recommendations that we can use as the start of a big process, because it's a recommendation of the whole process of organisation of elections. It's very important to understand the specific problems that we have not only in Ukraine, but a lot of countries after the post-war period. We all remember the pandemic elections, but we can't... 02/10/2025 | 10:38:29 Thank you, Mister President. Dear colleagues, When in 2008, the Georgian delegation here announced that next would be Ukrainian Crimea, nobody believed this. But only six years passed and Russians occupied Crimea, a part of Donbas and Luhansk. Only six years passed after the so-called Minsk agreements and Russia started a new full-scale invasion of Ukraine. In the words of Vladimir PUTIN only a week before this, "We will never, never send our troops to Ukraine." Now drones attack other... 01/10/2025 | 18:58:19 Thank you, Mister President. I think that you can understand us Ukrainians, that it's the most delicate and complicated question on this agenda. And not only for our delegation, for all the millions of Ukrainians who are now suffering, or in occupied territories, or millions and millions who, thanks to your governments and to the position of your peoples, are now abroad. Many years ago, we started together – Russia, Ukraine, the Baltic states and Moldova. How is it possible that 10 years... 24/06/2025 | 16:40:07 Thank you, Mister Chair. I want to thank, first of all, our rapporteurs. They did excellent work, and I think it's only the beginning. I want to stress that all citizens of Ukraine, Hungarians, Romanians, Moldovans, all of them are now struggling against Russian aggression. It's the main point here. And when hundreds and hundreds of Hungarians are now on the front line struggling against Russian aggression, it's for our freedom. So I think it's very important to understand that we do not need... 08/04/2025 | 11:07:51 Thank you. Dozens and dozens of facts of interference by Russia, Iran, and other extremist regimes. The fact of free elections interference in terrorist attacks. We can illustrate [this] by some facts that are now done by different agencies, including the very popular German channel ZDF. How is it possible that in the four days before the case in the city of Mannheim, where there was a horrible attack with a knife against the critic of so-called extremist Islam, the Russians created dozens... 28/01/2025 | 12:10:29 Thank you. Thank you, Madam Dora Bakoyannis for your possibility to discuss very openly and honestly a new international order. But first of all we had to understand when it's changed, everything that we name is a new international order. The times after the World War II it was very realistic, cynic but understandable: two main blocks, the forming of new organisations such as the United Nations, NATO, European Union, our organisation, so-called Soviet Camp, but then something happened. The...
