02/10/2024 | 17:15:19 Thank you, Mister President. First, I just want to start with some figures: 6 000 prisoners of war who are now in the prisons of Russia or their concentration camps; 14 000 civilians who are now in Russian prisons or concentration camps, and only less than 2 000 that are now approved by the Red Cross. Fewer than 20 000 – it's not an exact figure, because it's impossible to approve this through international organisations – children are now illegally on Russian territory. So it's figures. But... 01/10/2024 | 12:58:43 Secretary General, you are the best person in the best place. We have discussed today the excellent position of our organisation, and I think that the roadmap that you built, not only for Ukraine but for whole of democracy in Europe and in the whole world, is very important to realise in very concrete methods and in a very short time. So this roadmap, of course, first of all, it's the special representative in Ukraine. Of course, it's Russian excess. We now know that millions of Ukrainians... 27/06/2024 | 11:58:00 Thank you Madam Rapporteur for your excellent report. I think it's a big theme that we need to discuss, not only in this session but for a long period of time. And, of course, it's impossible to start my speech without a big thanks to all your governments, your parliaments all over the world, first of all, of European countries, countries that are members of the European Union, Canada, the United States, Türkiye and many, many other countries that are not members of European Union, for all... 26/06/2024 | 11:52:52 Thank you, Mister Chair. Dear rapporteurs, I think that it's not a case that we decided to unite all these three reports. I think it's a good idea to analyse how an autocratic regime became a fascist regime. It's very important to analyse this in a comparison with the fascist regime of Hitler. Putin started with the same problems that he started to solve. First of all, he decided to exclude, as Hitler did many years ago, such nations as Austrians, Czech, Slovak and others. So Putin started... 16/04/2024 | 16:20:18 Thank you, Mister President. Dear colleagues, I want to ask very honestly one question. Why do we need this report, this resolution, these recommendations? Somebody says that it's a message to Putin, this bloody dictator, in order to show just for him what it will be if he will not stop. Of course it's a message for all other bloody dictators that had to see what will be if we will make all our work unanimously. What we had to do and why we need this report? I think that we need to answer the... 13/10/2023 | 10:47:16 Thank you. I want, of course, to say my big thanks to the rapporteur, Mr Pieter OMTZIGT. I think that he started a very serious theme. It's only the beginning of our discussion, because everybody understands that it's not only about Putin and about Russia. It's a broader theme. This Report is about checks and balances, and about the future of Europe and the future of the world. The end of the Russian Republic and the start of Putin's dictatorship is only one episode in the European security... 12/10/2023 | 17:03:56 Thank you very much, Madam Chairman. The best war is a war that did not happen. Everybody understands that, but it is very important to understand how and what we can do to make sure that war does not happen. I think that some replies that I want to give our colleagues are very important in this case. First of all, a strong army. It is very important to have a strong army, but it must not be a one-way process. Somebody proposed disarmament. It must be a process by everybody if it is... 12/10/2023 | 15:44:18 President, dear colleagues, I want to present the Report that was not prepared by me. It was prepared by my colleague, Ms Lesia VASYLENKO, but unfortunately her father passed away on Monday, and so she didn't have the possibility to Present this report. Her father was a prominent specialist in international and constitutional law. He was a prominent ambassador of Ukraine. He was a representative of the United Nations criminal court. We can find a lot of his excellent ideas in this report as... 25/04/2023 | 16:59:16 Thank you. Dear colleagues. I think that the main question now that of the all people of Europe are asking is, what can we expect from the Reykjavík Summit? I think that it is very important to understand that in times when a lot of other international organisations became weaker, our organisation must have all of the possibility to become stronger than we were before. Over the last decades, from the establishment of our organisation, the whole of Europe and the whole world changed... 26/01/2023 | 11:29:38 Mr President, dear colleagues, I want to thank the rapporteur for this excellent document because it's not only a document. It's really a new history that you started to write together with us. It's very important to have correct definitions in this history - and you did it as a rapporteur. I thank all the others who did their excellent work to have the excellent report in this minute. What kind of definitions? It's not a war in Ukraine - it's a Russian aggression against Ukraine. It's very...
