27/01/2021 | 17:41:07 Thank you chair Dear colleagues, Now we are discussing an extremely important question about non-government organisations and now we really finally have a possibility to do something for Russian citizens. Because when we are told that let's do something for Russian citizens, giving a possibility to representatives of Russian authorities, for example, to be here without any sanctions: it's not really working for Russian citizens. When we are saying that we are doing something for Russian... 27/01/2021 | 16:21:29 I now would like to appeal to the people of Russia. It's Russian children who are now being hit in the center of Russia. It's not Poles, it's not Ukrainians, it's not anybody else. It's Russians who are being hit and are being attacked by Russians. And look at these people sitting around here. Look at them. They are people who have pillaged and ravaged your country. And how long are we going to go on? Look what's happening! Look what's happening to you, to your neighbors! Look what kind of... 27/01/2021 | 16:19:33 Sorry. Thank you. Dear Madame President and colleagues, First of all, I would like us to see the name of our topic "The arrest and detention of Alexei Navalny", but sorry, everything began with the poisoning of Alexei Navalny, the poisoning with chemical weapons, with novichok in the 21st century. First, it was Salisbury, and then it was Alexei Navalny and novichok. My dear colleagues, now in Europe we can see it with our own eyes. It's absolutely unacceptable. Then, Navalny came back to... 26/01/2021 | 18:40:56 Dear colleagues, I would like just to remind all of you why this report appeared in our agenda. It was summer 2019 when the majority of you decided to take back the Russian Federation here, their delegation, without any sanctions. Any at all. After they are not fulfilling any of the resolutions that were adopted here. Absolutely any of them. And we have two years left and just let us analyze the situation. You'd said at that time "we will have a dialogue with the Russian Federation, and it... 26/01/2021 | 16:25:24 Thank you. Dear Mr MAAS, we have a very difficult situation in Belarus. You know that in August Lukashenko falsified presidential elections, then self-proclaimed himself President of Belarus, and now he is constantly using violence against peaceful protesters. At least four people have been killed but probably much more than this number. Thousands are wounded. What will be done during your Chairmanship of Germany in the Committee of Ministers in order to influence Lukashenko's regime? What... 25/01/2021 | 19:18:01 Mr Sergey FABRICHNYY spoke here about Russian speaking minorities. I will respond in Russian. Now, I was born and grew up in Odessa. Russian is of course my first language, and I know the Russian poets by heart far better than many Russians and far better than Mr Putin. I think it's very important however to really take into consideration something else: Mr Putin ought to take his hands off the territories of Ukraine, off Crimea, and I do feel that is indeed the issue. As far as the... 25/01/2021 | 16:49:23 Several minutes ago you said that it is the coronavirus which doesn't allow for the European Commission on Human Rights to enter Crimea. But it is not the coronavirus, it is the Russian authorities who don't allow him to go through Ukraine legally to Crimea. And the coronavirus has not stopped you from coming to Moscow on 19 October. So what are the concrete results of your visit to Moscow in October? Please inform us, but don't use it as Russian propaganda to say that the crisis between the... 25/01/2021 | 13:01:04 Dear colleagues, Dear chairman, You see that we had been voting on the Russian delegation credentials recently and I first would like to say thank you to everybody who supported the position of Ukrainian delegation and voted for challenging the credentials of Russian delegation. And I want to address those who didn't support this issue for the moment. Please think. Please think and understand one issue: now it is the war in the world between Russian world and civilized world. What we have... 25/01/2021 | 12:20:39 President. Thank you everybody and hello to everybody. I just want to say that it's extremely important to have a debate on the Navalny case on Wednesday – as early as possible – because what is going on in the Russian Federation now it's absolute Stalinism, it's terror against its own citizens, again Novichok against the leader of opposition, chemical weapons, detaining illegally a person, hundreds beaten, thousands arrested, and we cannot wait until even Thursday. The earlier the better. So... 30/01/2020 | 15:48:31 Thank you. Thank you, Chairman. Dear colleagues, Yesterday, I told myself that I will not, during this session, say the word Russia anymore. But, unfortunately, I should do this again because it's an extremely important issue and I want to thank everybody who were proposing this debate. We know, today, the latest news that yesterday evening-night in Idlib, a rebel-held province in Syria, there was an air raid. It is believed that it was made by Russian military forces and because of this 10...
