Speeches since 2019

23/06/2023 | 10:53:35 Thank you. Thank you very much, dear Chairman. First of all, I would like to thank the rapporteur for the great job done, especially the part about transnational repressions and killings organised by the Russian Federation, which is so striking. Starting from Novichok in Salisbury, coming to the killings organised by Mr Ramzan Kadyrov and other Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) people, that is really striking. What is really transnational and what is the next phase of Russian... 22/06/2023 | 18:38:46 Thank you very much Mister President. On behalf of the Committee on Migration, Refugees and Displaced Persons, first of all, I would like to thank Mr Paul GAVAN, rapporteur, for a very important and courageous report. I would also like to thank the Secretariat of the Committee for all work done. I would also like to thank all members of our Committee. Today, we had a long and big debate and I think it was fruitful, so I want to thank everybody for this. The most important thing which I want... 22/06/2023 | 17:39:58 Thank you. Thank you, Madam President. That is about an important thing about which I spoke today. That, yes, there are really good Russians. But, it is not those people who are sitting somewhere hiding their money, Russian oligarchs who are saying they have nothing to do with what Mr Vladimir Putin is doing. Good Russians are those who are fighting against this war. Not so many, unfortunately, but there are. And one of them is Mr Vladimir Kara-Murza, and he is illegally detained and tortured... 22/06/2023 | 17:33:58 Thank you very much. I think this is an extremely important Amendment, because it is about nations colonised by Russia in North Caucasus, the Chechens, Circassians, Ossetians, Tatars, Buryats, Kalmyks. Russia is the last colonial empire in Europe. And under our eyes they are destroying the human rights of these people. In reality they are doing genocide of these people, sending them to die to Ukraine, to kill Ukrainians and to die themselves. So we need to speak about this and this Amendment... 22/06/2023 | 17:30:46 Dear colleagues, It is very important. The fact is that after the Committee on Political Affairs and Democracy already made decisions and amendments, an urgent event happened. The President of Ukraine, Mr Volodymyr Zelenskyy, announced today the fact that Russia is preparing a terror attack and explosion on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which is the biggest nuclear power plant in Europe, the third biggest in the world. That is an extremely dangerous situation. We cannot ignore it... 22/06/2023 | 16:23:47 Thank you, Mister President, and special thanks to the rapporteurs, especially to Mr Emanuelis ZINGERIS for the great job done. Thank you very much for such powerful and important reports. Now we're speaking about sport. We are speaking the word "neutral". I want to take this point and to go ahead. What is really neutrality? Can we really be neutral in the world? You know, when I hear that, it is not just from sportsmen. It is culture people, artists. We see people in Monaco, Courchevel... 21/06/2023 | 18:07:02 Thank you very much. I wanted to speak about other things, but I heard our Hungarian colleague. I can't not respond to it, because when you're saying that you live in a war zone on the Hungarian-Serbian border, welcome to Ukraine. I will show you a war zone. I will show you a real war zone. You should see it. The only prime minister in Europe who has not visited Ukraine is Mr Viktor Orbán. Take your prime minister and visit our country. I will show you the war zone, and I will show you why... 27/04/2023 | 17:46:41 Thank you very much, dear Chairman. I want to tell you that we are now discussing an extremely important topic. We are speaking about the security in the whole of Europe. And Moldova today is one of the keys to the security of the whole of Europe. First of all, I want to thank Moldovans, the Moldovan people for all their support to Ukraine and Ukrainians. My constituency borders Moldova. I live just one hour from the border with Moldova and I know how many people, especially from my native... 27/04/2023 | 16:41:01 Thank you very much dear Chairman, dear colleagues, First of all, great work from the rapporteur. A big thanks for this, and especially a big thanks for the word "genocide" which is mentioned in the text. That is very important. We need to say after this - when we say "terrorism", we know that there is the definition "sponsor of terrorism". But when we are saying "genocide", there are also "sponsors of genocide". So who are the sponsors of genocide? I want now to mention one country - Hungary... 25/04/2023 | 18:53:17 Thank you very much, dear Chairman, dear colleagues. I think this is an extremely important report because this is about the future of our organisation. What we are for. We were created and we exist to promote our values: democracy, human rights, rule of law not only in Europe, not only to our neighbours, but throughout the whole planet. That is our aim. Partnership for democracy is one of the very important instruments for this. We need to work with such regions as North Africa, the Middle...
