17/04/2024 | 15:08:52 Thank you very much. First of all I would like to thank you for your recent visit to Kyiv. I would like, by the way, to ask you, Lithuania, which will soon preside our Secretary General. I think the great place for next Committee of Ministers meeting is Ukraine. Kyiv, Odessa or Kharkiv. That's where the fate of our values is decided. My question to you is now more as a representative of Liechtenstein. Maybe, especially after yesterday's resolution of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council... 16/04/2024 | 18:28:47 Thank you very much, Mister President. First of all, I would like to thank Ms Dora BAKOYANNIS. You did a great job! You knew from the beginning that you will be attacked for this report and you did a courageous step and you made a great report. Ευχαριστώ. Thank you very much for doing this. I want to congratulate Kosovo. I am sure now there will be a positive decision. And really Kosovo deserves it, for 100%. That's a very great moment, not just for Kosovo, not just for the Balkans, but for... 16/04/2024 | 16:05:00 Thank you very much, Mister President. You know, we're speaking now about reconstruction of Ukraine, but it looks like wishful thinking. Till the end of this debate, one more Ukrainian village or town will be destroyed by Russians. Destroyed completely to the rubbles. So let us have an honest and fair and pragmatic talk. You know, for years I was addressing this Assembly and Ukraine was addressing the whole world speaking about values. But it looks like not everybody here and in the world is... 25/01/2024 | 11:10:47 Thank you very much, Mr Chair, Thank you to the rapporteur for their great work. And, you know, I want to speak about culture. I think you will be surprised – we are speaking about children now – but I want to speak about culture because sometimes from you and in Europe, I hear, "Oh, we know great Russian culture, and unfortunately, we do not know much about Ukrainian culture". I just want to explain some things. I respect the cultures of all nations. I want to explain something. Do you know... 24/01/2024 | 18:00:37 Thank you very much, Mister President. It is really a very sad moment for me and I think for many of my colleagues. Nothing good is happening right now. We just need to acknowledge this and to understand this. I have a question for all of us. Where will somebody be happy with what is going on now right here? In Moscow, definitely. In Baku? I don't think so. In Strasbourg? No. In Kyiv? No. So, the only player will be happy to see the divisions in the free world is the country which was... 24/01/2024 | 16:55:16 Thank you very much Mr President [spoken in French], My dear colleagues, I think it's a very important report, but we need to speak not just about the details of this report, but the idea. Globalisation in times of crisis and war, and we want to discuss it. But let us be frank: globalisation failed. It failed, and this is the reality, because we started globalisation from the wrong end. We started the globalisation from economic globalisation. The idea was let us be economically globalised... 23/01/2024 | 19:59:14 Thank you very much. Dear colleagues. I think that this is an extremely timely report, an extremely timely report. The topic of migration, today, at the moment when the whole world is entering the most democratic year in the history of humankind, more than two billion people in the world will vote this year, and will vote for their democratically elected governments. That is unbelievable. There will be elections throughout the whole European Union and many Council of Europe member states. I... 23/01/2024 | 19:17:44 Thank you, it's quite... sorry, dear colleagues, but it's quite a strange Amendment, because how can we destroy the economic ties with some settlements, which somebody will decide that are illegal? I mean, it sounds strange, it's impossible to do and, in general, we have the situation when Hamas terrorists are receiving money in cryptocurrency from Iran, from Russia, without any economic ties, receive weaponry from them, and that's the main problem, and we need to deal with the main problem... 23/01/2024 | 18:53:22 Dear colleagues, I want to address to you. We are speaking now about a huge tragedy and I do not think that what is going on now in the Assembly is something good looking. Really, it is a tragedy but in any tragedy, there are those who are guilty in it, and I do not know who we should be, after what happened on 7 October, than trying not to recognise the fact that Hamas are terrorists and they made from Gaza their fortress, unfortunately. That is the problem. So, I just want to address to all... 22/01/2024 | 16:21:24 Thank you very much. First of all, I would like to start with something I would never believe in, two years ago, that I would say: thank you, President Tiny KOX for an excellent job done. Thank you very much as well, as probably you would never have believed that you would be the President of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe who finally kicked Russia out from this organisation. I would also like to congratulate president Mr Theodoros ROUSOPOULOS. I had the honour of working...
