01/10/2024 | 11:51:10 Thank you very much. The general discussion is closed. The Committee on Culture, Science, Education and the Media has presented a draft resolution (Doc 16034) to which six amendments have been tabled. I have been informed by the Chairman of the Committee on Culture, Science, Education and the Media that he wishes to propose to the Assembly that Amendments 4, 6, 5 and 3, which were adopted unanimously by the Committee, be deemed adopted by the Assembly. Is this the case? Yes. If no one objects... 28/06/2024 | 10:02:49 Ladies and gentlemen, The meeting is now open. I remind you that you must insert your voting card to speak or vote. If you wish to request the floor, please also press the "request" button once and only once. The next item is the presentation of the report "Safeguarding the human rights of future generations" (Doc. 15999) by Mr Simon MOUTQUIN, on behalf of the Social, Health and Sustainable Development Committee. The opinion of the Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights will be presented... 27/06/2024 | 17:39:10 Thank you, Mister Vice-President. Conflicts are accompanied by horrors and destruction, but even after peace has been established, the land still bears the scars of war. The best example, the worst example, the example of the worst, is Verdun. There are unexploded munitions, buried mines, and sometimes even small toy-like objects that trap children. Reclaiming land for daily life and cultivation is a huge risk, with deaths, amputations, and shattered lives. We all have in mind the images of... 27/06/2024 | 12:48:09 Thank you, Madam Chair. The text proposed in Amendment 2 was accepted by the Committee. The problem is simply that my intention was to put this text in paragraph 13. In fact, the idea would be to make a sub-amendment to replace the text of paragraph 13 with the whole of Amendment 2. What happened in Amendment 2, which was put in the wrong paragraph – I'm sorry, it's a bit complicated – what was actually done is a collection of 13 plus my proposals. The result is an incoherent document where... 27/06/2024 | 12:13:11 Thank you, Madam Chairman. Dear colleagues, In May 2022, I was entrusted with my first mission on this theme, two months after the start of the war. I went to western Ukraine, to Uzhhorod and then Chernivtsi, to assess the humanitarian situation of the internally displaced at the time. We were talking about 5 to 6 million people. I saw, for example, the town of Uzhhorod, near the border with Slovakia, where normally there were perhaps 100 000 people; here, there were 500 000 people who were... 26/06/2024 | 17:17:59 Thank you, Madam Chairman. We shall now proceed to the vote. The vote is open. The vote is closed. I call for the result to be displayed. Adopted unanimously. That's not all: we will now vote on the draft Resolution contained in Doc. 16003 (amended). A simple majority is required. The vote is open. The flame is attracting more and more voters, which is very good. The vote is closed. I call for the result to be displayed. Accepted unanimously, congratulations, the draft Resolution 16003 is... 26/06/2024 | 17:13:26 Thank you, Mr. Vice-Chairman. So, unanimously proposed by the Committee. If no one objects, I consider these amendments definitively adopted. If there are any objections, we'll have to check that they have the requisite support of ten people. Any objections? Obviously not. Amendments 1 to 13 to the draft Resolution are therefore adopted. We will now vote on the draft Resolution contained in Doc. 16000 (amended). A simple majority is required. The ballot is opened. The ballot is closed. I... 26/06/2024 | 17:09:47 The amendment was not examined by the Committee as it was not presented to the Committee. We will therefore vote on it. The vote is opened. It's very good, with the flame, there are a lot of people. The amendment is adopted. We will now proceed to vote on the draft resolution. This is the draft contained in Doc. 15998 (amended). The vote is opened. A simple majority is required. Absolute majority, everyone votes, very well. The draft resolution is adopted. We now move on to the draft... 26/06/2024 | 17:06:01 Thank you, Madam. We now come to the first report on "Legal issues and human rights violations linked to aggression by the Russian Federation against Ukraine" (Document 15998). The Committee on Legal Affairs and Human Rights has presented a draft resolution to which four amendments have been tabled, and a draft recommendation to which no amendments have been tabled. The amendments will be called in the order in which they apply to the text, as published in the compendium of amendments. Ladies... 25/06/2024 | 18:48:18 Thank you, Madam Vice-President. Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear colleagues, Wars, famine, extreme poverty and global warming are preventing people from continuing to live at home: migratory phenomena can be explained by human tragedies, and they are clearly likely to get worse in the future. Everyone has the right to seek help and protection, to apply for asylum, even in the case of so-called "irregular migration". The right to asylum, the right to seek asylum and protection for everyone, is an...
