01/10/2026 | 16:21:06 Thank you. We are discussing artificial intelligence (AI) here in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe. And we should discuss it saying "alarm", because really, alarm. Once again, dear friends, Europe is completely, completely falling behind in artificial intelligence. It's absolutely shocking numbers. The European Union holds about 5% of the world's AI computing power compared to 74% of the United States and 14% of China. In 2024, the United States institutions produced 40... 30/09/2026 | 19:18:26 Thank you very much. And first of all, I would like to thank both rapporteurs for a great job done. Absolutely.

It's important for everybody, for all the countries you represent, because Europe is rearming today, and eventually every army produces veterans. And these people want to know, and they all have the right... 28/09/2026 | 15:53:36 Thank you. Thank you, Madam Chair. Dear colleagues, While we're speaking here today, right now, Kyiv is again on fire. Right now, several hours ago, a new attack at the National Academy of Sciences, new people killed.
