19/04/2024 | 11:17:00 Thank you. Dear Chairman, Dear colleagues, Thank you, Mr Joseph O'REILLY, for this important report. It's evident that our collective goal is to ensure the effective protection of children online. This requires a comprehensive approach involving all stakeholders: state, the technology sector, parents and children themselves. We must transition from a continuum of online violence to one of robust protection, always prioritising the best interests of the child. We acknowledge that achieving... 17/04/2024 | 16:48:10 Dear President, dear colleagues, dear Mr Emanuelis ZINGERIS, Putin is a champion of human rights violations, the destruction of political competitors and the destruction of the foundations of democracy in the world. The Kremlin terrorist came to power and keeps it only by means of intimidation, bribery and terror The Moscow empire distorts history, steals cultural achievements and considers itself a great power that cannot be ignored. The Kremlin's terrorist regime has focused on its main... 26/01/2024 | 11:20:34 Thank you, dear Chairman, dear colleagues, I would like to address a deeply troubling issue that demands our immediate attention: child abuse in institutions across Europe. We find ourselves confronted with a disturbing reality where vulnerable children often placed in the care of institutions face unimaginable suffering and abuse. This is a grave violation of their basic human rights, and it's our responsibility, as members of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of the Europe, to... 25/01/2024 | 17:44:22 Amendment No. 9, in the Draft Resolution, we would propose to replace Paragraph 5 with the following paragraph. "In a situation where freedom of speech, assembly, and association are curtailed, and opposition and political parties are dissolved, and their leaders and members are persecuted, freedom of the media is not respected, not credible domestic and international electoral observation is allowed and there is no redress against this violation, there cannot be free and fair elections. The... 25/01/2024 | 17:29:54 Thank you. Dear Chairman, dear Colleagues, The democratic future of Belarus is important not only for Belarusians, but also for the whole world. We must help the democratic forces of Belarus break the shackles of the Kremlin, preserve its identity and restore true sovereignty. Lukashenko's totalitarian regime took away the right to choose their future from the Belarusian people. But it's not forever. Belarus has the potential to become a modern, democratic and prosperous country in the heart... 13/10/2023 | 12:00:26 Thank you, Madam Chairman, thank you colleagues, Unfortunately, we remember or negotiate our problems, when they get too big. But sometimes we need to focus on small problems when they are born. Now, dependence or mental dependence is not only about drugs. It's also based on social media and online games. It is very deep inside, because now it hurts our children. Who is responsible for this? Of course we are responsible for this. Why has it happened? Maybe because we are working too much or... 11/10/2023 | 19:22:14 Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, Thanks to Ms Béatrice FRESKO-ROLFO for the excellent report. Our world is incredibly technologically advanced. However, there are problems with education and basic respect for people with disabilities. We can admire how soldiers save their fellow soldiers in war. We can show respect to people in uniform and we sometimes forget about civilians. We ignore their needs and do not care enough about the safety and comfort of the environment. As a result, [there is... 23/06/2023 | 11:48:01 Thank you, Madam Chair. Dear Colleagues, Today, I want to address a pressing issue that hinders equality in our society – the digital divide. Access to digital technologies is crucial for public services, education, and countless opportunities. However, many individuals are excluded from these benefits, creating barriers to equality and limiting their life chances. Millions of refugees have no equal access to digital technologies and proper equipment. Even in the European Union, in the... 21/06/2023 | 17:35:23 Thank you. Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, In a world facing increasing global migration and forced displacement, it is imperative that we recognise the immense value and potential that the integration of migrants and refugees brings to both the host societies and the individuals themselves. Integration is a multifaceted and dynamic process that encompasses social, economic, and cultural dimensions. When effectively implemented it has the power to transform lives, foster social cohesion, and... 19/06/2023 | 17:20:10 Thank you. I want to remind you; in 1956 more than 2 600 Hungarians were killed and almost 20 000 were wounded in Hungary in three days time by the Soviet Kremlin Army. Maybe you expected the same scenario in Kyiv. Ukraine is a shield of protection of European democracy. Ukraine is a part of European values and they always defend them. Why has Budapest blocked the next transfer of funds from the European peace fund for military assistance to Ukraine? Why did Hungary try to block anti-Russian...
