23/04/2026 | 11:47:36 Dear Madam President, Esteemed colleagues, The Middle East region is not facing a series of isolated crises, but a web of interconnected wars and conflicts, as Ms Dora BAKOYANNIS's outlined report clearly demonstrates on the situation of the Middle East. At the centre of this lies the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, which continues to embolden extremism, fuel proxy wars and destabilise the region as a whole. It is within this context that the recent Israeli law introducing the death penalty... 29/01/2026 | 12:13:10 Thank you. Allow me to address the Middle East in a historic concept. Previously, the Middle East was known to be the Fertile Crescent, including Syria, Iraq, Palestine, Israel, modern-day Israel, Jordan, Lebanon. And the communities, different communities, what I call the geography of religious, ethnic, national communities, learned how to live side by side. Then came the colonial powers. And the colonial powers did a wonderful job at dividing people into different communities. And yes, in... 28/01/2026 | 17:23:28 Thank you, Chair. I'm sorry it took me some time, but let me say this.

Now, the outcry and condemnation that rightly followed the dreadful attack of 7 October 2023 by Hamas should not prevent the moral outcry against what has been happening in Gaza since. The Palestinian National Authority welcomed the latest peace initiative by... 25/06/2025 | 16:30:02 Mr President, Distinguished colleagues, As a Palestinian parliamentarian, I speak today not only with deep concern, but with deep pain. For over 20 months now, Gaza has endured unimaginable suffering. Entire families erased, hospitals turned to rubble, children pulled from the ruins, some alive, many not. Over 55 000 lives lost. This is not a statistic. It's a collective wound on the conscience of humanity. And yet we Palestinians often feel invisible. Our pain, our narrative, our rights, too...
