29/09/2026 | 16:07:32 Thank you so much, Madam President. First I would like to answer to your call on more solidarity on the export of Ukrainian cereals. Romania does a lot. And the fact that the Global South is assured with Ukrainian cereals is thanks to the Romanian harbours and railways that are open to that solidarity. Now I speak as a European and Romanian citizen worried about war escalation and drones all over Europe, the Baltic countries, Poland, Romania, every day, Germany. What can you yourself, dear... 29/09/2026 | 10:27:32 Madam President, Dear Ambassadors, Secretary General, Secretary General of the Parliamentary Assembly, Dear rapporteur, Mr Knut ABRAHAM, Europe is living through a time of profound changes and threats. War has returned to our continent. Democratic institutions are under pressure. Disinformation spreads faster than truth and technology is changing our societies faster than our laws. In such times we need to look for new answers. But these answers must be rooted in solid ground, the values on... 28/09/2026 | 12:12:55 Thank you. Madam President, Dear Secretary General, Dear colleagues, I had the honour to chair our 11-member Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe (PACE) delegation that observed the early parliamentary elections to the Assembly of Kosovo on 7 June 2026. We were the only international organisation invited to observe these elections. And here you see the exceptional mandate and profile of PACE. The Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) wasn't there, obviously... 22/06/2026 | 12:31:16 Thank you, President. Thank you, rapporteur. As this is your last time in the Assembly, I want to thank you for your work, your presence, your dedication, dear Laura, for what you did for this Assembly. It was important for us. Thank you. In recent days, Russia has intensified its attacks on Russia, on Ukrainian civilians. Last Tuesday it struck a United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) World Heritage site in the heart of Kyiv, the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. This... 30/01/2026 | 11:03:11 Thank you, Ms. President. I've looked forward so much to this moment because I think you did very well. I want to congratulate you for the leadership over the past days. I think we should be a bit more generous and allow more time before judging people. That being said, on behalf of the Liberals, we wish you good luck, wisdom, inspiration and creativity for the coming two years. You have our full support for the good things you have proposed to do with this Assembly on behalf of all Europeans...
