25/01/2022 | 16:12:28 Thank you very much, Madam Secretary General. The situation in Belarus is worsening from day to day. Alexander Lukashenko became the complete puppet of Putin and now together with Putin, he threatens Ukraine with war. He weaponises through migration and this so awful crisis on the borders with Council of Europe member States. He is killing opposition inside his country. The situation is awful. During last year, we twice made resolutions in which it was said that a special body or group should... 24/01/2022 | 19:52:53 Thank you, Mr COTTIER, for your also very rightful words about crisis management, which we need to do, not to have millions of refugees here on our continent. That is why such things as the Afghanistan crisis or possible new wave of intervention of Russia against Ukraine, which can cause millions of refugees, is so important for us to discuss, not only to watch it but to work to prevent it. Special thanks also to Mr HOWELL from the United Kingdom. I absolutely agree that the defence of human... 24/01/2022 | 18:24:55 Thank you Mr President, dear Commissioner Ylva Johansen, dear colleagues, ladies and gentlemen, The European Union Pact on Migration and Asylum elaborated by the European Commission is an important set of proposals aimed at improving asylum and migration management procedures in Europe. In the present political context in Europe there is a real threat of a new wave of military invasion by Russian troops in Ukraine, which can provoke millions of refugees. The recent political crisis in... 24/01/2022 | 14:02:52 Thank you very much. I feel that we need to discuss the very important question of credentials of the Russian delegation after the report about the Mr Navalny case because these two issues are absolutely connected. When we are speaking about Putin killing his own oppositioners, we need to understand also what is the position of our colleagues from the Russian Parliament and also certainly these questions are connected. So my proposition is first, Mr Jacques MAIRE's report on the Alexei... 30/09/2021 | 17:42:20 Thank you Mr Chairman, dear colleagues, I want to thank the rapporteur for a very good report on an extremely important topic, because that's the 21st century, dear colleagues; really – cyber activity, cyber attacks, and cyberwars are something which we face in our time. I just want to remind you that last week there was a statement by the EU High Representative on Foreign Policy, Mr Josep Borrell Fontelles, and I want to quote it: "Some EU Member States have observed malicious cyber... 30/09/2021 | 17:15:14 The Committee voted against this amendment and I want to ask all of you to vote against this amendment because it proposes much weaker text. What does it mean to follow the human rights situation? We are following for more than one year, where are the results? No results. We need to make some permanent body. And, there, I just want to remind you that yesterday I asked about this Mr Péter Szijjártó who is presiding in the Council of Ministers, and he also supported this. Before, Mr Maas... 30/09/2021 | 16:50:27 Thank you, Mister Chairman. Dear colleagues, We are discussing an extremely important issue. What we see isa weaponizing of people, weaponizing of migrants. What can be worse in human life? Can you just tell me what crime could be worse than this? I just want to stress your attention on the speech of Mr Aleksandr BASHKIN from the Russian Federation. It was a clear confession that Lukashenko is not alone in what he is doing, because Mr Aleksandr BASHKIN said all the myths from Lukashenko. They... 30/09/2021 | 10:21:02 Thank you, Madam Chair, dear colleagues. We need to all thank the rapporteurs very much for their great work. It is really, extremely important. Ukraine was also not far from this situation. We took part in it. We evacuated almost 1 000 people from Afghanistan. Our special service people, servicemen, Ukrainian military man helped to take people from the most dangerous places in Kabul and to make them safe. It's our common responsibility to help these people today. What should the lesson be... 29/09/2021 | 17:32:25 Dear colleagues, Today we're speaking about an extremely important issue - it's climate, its the environment, it's about the future. One of the most important things is global warming and the greenhouse gas emissions which are responsible for this. I want to stress our attention on one topic; methane emissions. Methane is much more powerful in trapping heat than carbon dioxide. It has more than 80 times more of a global warming effect than carbon dioxide. If we're speaking about the human... 28/09/2021 | 16:37:14 Thank you, Chairman. Mr Minister, we have an awful situation in Belarus. From August of last year the dictator Mr Alexander Lukashenko first falsified the presidential elections. Then, using Russian support, and with the support of Putin, he used brutal force against his own people; killing dozens of them. Thousands were put in detention and tortured. After this, we have had crisis after crisis. We remember the situation with the kidnapping of the Ryanair plane in the skies of Belarus. Now...
