01/10/2026 | 18:58:17 Thank you, Madam Chair, Honourable Members, I would like to congratulate our colleague Mr Georgios STAMATIS on this important report. Demographic change in Europe is complex and calls for a responsible and sustainable response. This requires clear political will. Public policies must enable everyone to choose their own life path: to be able to find accommodation, have a stable job and secure a place at a crèche when returning to work. This has been a long-standing concern of mine. In 2004, I... 24/06/2026 | 12:39:54 Thank you, President. Dear colleagues, Democracy is the government of the people, based on freedom, pluralism and the ability of every individual to form their own opinion freely. Today, we already have doubts about the reality and validity of these principles. But what will democracy look like in a few years’ time if artificial intelligence develops itself, without effective human control? Anthropic itself, one of the most advanced companies in the development of artificial intelligence, has... 22/04/2026 | 17:30:43 Thank you, Madam Chairman, Ladies and gentlemen, I congratulate the rapporteur on the quality of this report. The death penalty has no place in a society founded on human dignity, the rule of law and respect for fundamental rights.

It was a civilisational choice. We were one of the first countries in the... 21/04/2026 | 16:49:48 Thank you, Mister President, Colleagues, Allow me first to congratulate our rapporteur, Ms Elisabetta GARDINI, for the clarity and relevance of her report, and I also congratulate the rapporteur for opinion. Political violence is not something new to our time. History reminds us of this. John KENNEDY was shot dead in the year 1963, before the eyes of the world. Olof PALME, Prime Minister of Sweden, was assassinated in the year 1986 while walking home from the cinema, in a country that... 01/10/2025 | 11:53:31 Thank you, Mister President. Mister President, colleagues, The persecution of Ukrainian journalists by the Russian Federation is not an excess of war. It is a deliberate strategy. By silencing the press, Putin's regime seeks to erase evidence of crimes and to impose lies as the official narrative. This is not new. We saw the same in Chechnya, in Syria and in the Balkans, where censorship and intimidation were used to conceal atrocities. Today In Ukraine, 26 journalists are missing or held in...
