02/10/2026 | 11:03:58 Thank you. Dear colleagues, I came here today with a sad problem. Romania is losing its democracy. My country has been without a government since May this year. Two days ago, the president's second official proposal for a prime minister and government team was rejected by parliament. Although there has been a third proposal, it never reached a vote in parliament because the numbers did not add up. Now, he's going for the fourth proposal. Article 89 of the Romanian Constitution stipulates that... 02/10/2026 | 10:20:26 Thank you. Dear colleagues, As this is a technical update to the Rules of Procedure, which we agree in principle, I can keep our contribution short. What concerns us is that, once again, more declarations, more paperwork and more bureaucracy are being required. I understand the reason why this was initially created after the corruption scandal in 2017, but has there ever been a consequence for any member who made a false or incomplete declaration? They are being published on the website. So... 01/10/2026 | 18:47:44 Thank you. Dear colleagues, It is true that we are facing population ageing, low birth rates, and the depopulation of rural and peripheral regions.

We need long-term policy planning and social investment to preserve prosperity... 29/09/2026 | 19:54:56 Thank you. Congratulations for the report and for the progresses made by Greece. But I would like to speak about a particular issue in this report about minorities rights, because they are very important in the European Union countries and they are applied differently. For example, Romania can be a real example for the minority rights, because we actually have reserved in the Chamber of Deputies for each minority, one seat, 19 in total. So I would like to draw attention to an important... 29/09/2026 | 18:27:18 Thank you. Dear colleagues, When reading this draft resolution, it seems like an ideal text for difficult situations. For me, it means even more, as I am the Chairwoman of the Committee for Romanians Abroad in the Romanian Senate. We are reading here about the need to protect democracy, equality, combating discrimination, involving diasporas in democratic process, in policy-making affecting them, about how crucial it is to promote the political participation of diaspora members, to empower...
