Speeches since 2019

24/01/2022 | 10:39:04 Thank you so much. Dear Boriss, thank you so much. And, dear Secretary general, I challenge the credentials of the Russian delegation on substantive grounds. Previous parliamentary elections in Russia they are not free and not fair. So the Russian delegation is not legitimate. Russia is not implementing resolutions 1990, 2034, 2063, 2363 and 2387 occupying Ukrainian and Georgian territories. Recently Russia has liquidated an internationally recognized memorial human rights centre. Russian... 30/09/2021 | 16:07:48 Thank you so much, dear Chairman, especially the Chairman of the Committee and specially Ms Anne-Mari VIROLAINEN. The report was prepared scrupulously, balanced. It was a discussion of deep insights during the discussion inside of our Committee of the Commission on Immigration this morning and before that. Thank you for listening and thank you for integrating the current experience of those three countries facing an absolutely new challenge. In the north of Europe, can you imagine in the... 28/09/2021 | 16:59:56 Thank you very much for being here and for all you have done for our Council of Europe in the last six months, Minister. However, I stressed this point earlier, the instrumentalisation of immigration. I am from Vilnius. Every day I see when the Belarusian army is rounding up these artificial migrants, which, of course, would have to stay with us and, of course, our goodwill to these migrants look...but this is unlikely, this day, and all segments of the European Union, the Council of Europe... 23/06/2021 | 18:17:04 Thank you, Madam President and dear friends,  I would like to congratulate our dear friend on the rapporteurship on the Crimean Tatar issue. I would like to say that Ms Thorhildur Sunna ÆVARSDÓTTIR's contribution was scrupulous and absolutely crystal clear. So from our point of view, I just experienced in my old capacities one of the sessions of Crimea Tatar parliament in exile in the Lithuanian Parliament. We decided to give an official status, Madam Rapporteur, to Crimean parliamentarians... 23/06/2021 | 10:11:30 Dear friends, can you hear me? Very good. First of all, I would like to congratulate that all of you are safe after such a terrible pandemic. It is such a pleasure to see you all in the Chamber and outside. Secondly, coming to the subject, I would like to raise the questions related to Belarus and thank you for signing up to be speakers. Mr Zsolt NÉMETH, Belarus state terrorism has become a threat for the whole of Europe, and we neighbouring countries, do not know how to use all democratic... 21/06/2021 | 17:28:17 Thank you, Mister President. Minister, thank you for a perspective on the one footnote, we always respected that Hungary and middle Europeans people, like Polish people on the Baltic, are not in the middle between west and east, but they belong to the Western culture and Western democracies. So my question is about Belarus, who continues to be like a continuation of Soviet regime and has more like 500 political prisoners, takes over and kidnaps a Ryanair plane from Athens to Vilnius and... 21/06/2021 | 16:28:32 Thank you, Mr Chairman, I would just like to say this, I am happy if we have a widespread family of European value system. But when it comes to Albania, I did not participate in the elections in Albania and therefore I could not give an opinion on how all this happened. But I would like to support all colleagues who were there and Mr Andrej HUNKO, his positive statement and others, and our EPP Group also. And about that I would have to say, I did not take part in the Albanian elections... 22/04/2021 | 09:23:09 Thank you, Mr Chairman, Thank you, Mr Michael ROTH, We are living in an age beyond Checkpoint Charlie. I have been in Belarus and I have seen a country in which people  are fighting for their freedom. We have the feeling that in Vilnius we are Checkpoint Charlie and our Polish colleagues also have the same feeling. We must show courage.  Mister Michael ROTH, we need to have the Parliamentary Assembly, the Committee of Ministers and the Secretary General make a joint statement. We have drafted... 21/04/2021 | 12:00:20 Hello, thank you. Thank you, Mr Andreas NICK, for your wonderful chairmanship on this most terrible question: that in the middle of Europe, we are starting to have a Soviet-type concentration camp. It is a Gulag established by [Belarusian president] Mr Alexander Lukashenko under the auspices of [Russian president] Mr Vladimir Putin. Tomorrow they will speak about how to strip part of the independence, part of the statehood, of Belarus. Now in this house, it was announced yesterday by [German... 19/04/2021 | 11:52:55 Thank you so much. Dear speaker, Our requests come with some humoristic technical delay and of course the topics are changing and I am supporting all topics just announced by you in the sense of an unanimous voting. I'm not charging anyone from the candidates and not making the request to vote in the Chamber, but I would like... At the beginning, I raised that question to make our remarks and our speeches and I would like to use that to say that everything done by you was okay, but in this...
