Speeches since 2019

23/06/2021 | 16:36:48 Thank you, dear President. First of all, I thank the rapporteur for working on this extremely important subject. I would like to express my views on Paragraph 4 which I am sure will comply with the views of the Assembly, namely as regards hate speech and online harassment attacking women in politics or public life. Women's interest in politics has grown significantly in our time, thanks in part to the efforts that have been done by the Member States to revise their own policies on non... 23/06/2021 | 12:43:25 Thank you, dear President. I will take this challenge of 60 seconds to report back to you on the developments that were positively outlined by Madam Secretary General in Ukraine. We can proudly say that Ukraine was one of the co-authors of the text of the Istanbul Convention 10 years ago. Now we are going through the same challenge that 34 countries have gone through while signing this document, and 12 of those who finally ratified it. Of course, we cannot forget about the four principles... 21/04/2021 | 17:54:17 Kiitos President. Thank you very much in your native language. Kiitos. Dear Mr President, Dear rapporteur, Ms Martine WONNER, Dear colleagues, I would like to be focused on one of the most important and personal topics for me, and maybe for my constituency, but also for the member countries. Nearly 40 years ago, Betty Ford, the former first lady of the United States of America, announced to the world that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer and that she would undergo radical mastectomy... 20/04/2021 | 12:38:42 We salute this report. It's definitely on time and the Assembly vision was actually in need of strategic priorities for all of us, for the member countries and us colleagues as concrete representatives of constituencies and peoples of 47 member states. Our delegation would like to stress the best principles, of course, that the Council of Europe must condemn the combat to threat of territorial integrity and security of the member states and that was enshrined in many resolutions that you have... 20/04/2021 | 09:29:48 Merci Président, Chers collègues, I would like to start my speech with words of gratitude to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, Marija Pejčinović Burić, who issued guidelines recently to governments to safeguard human rights using such certification or immunisation. This particular document highlights the relevant human rights standards for addressing the issues of vaccine passports and underlines the importance of stepping up efforts for all of us to produce and administer... 28/01/2021 | 13:26:56 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Mr. President, dear colleagues, While we are talking about "dialogue" and are afraid to offend one of the members of the Council of Europe, this country, in the occupied territories where it controls armed groups, supports the existence of an unforgiving phenomenon in the 21st century. It is about the secret prison “Isolation” in Donetsk The “Isolation” is a secret prison on the territory of a military base located at the following address: 3... 27/01/2021 | 18:09:49 Thank you dear chair. Thank you dear neighbour. We have a report today which is called Restrictions on NGO activities in Council of Europe member states. I think the name can be renamed to the "restriction on democracy" in a very broad term. Because I can't agree more whith the previous speakers that the right of freedom of association, along with the right of freedom to expression, opinion and peaceful assembly, is enshrined in all international documents which this Assembly voted on... 25/01/2021 | 19:03:36 Madam President, Mr Serhii SOBOLEV is absent. I would like to represent him and myself. We fully support the fact that we should amend the part which is cited as follows: "To the full implementation of Minsk agreements to which the Russian Federation is party, and to end its military intervention in and support for illegally armed formations in eastern Ukraine, to reverse its illegal annexation of Crimea, and demand by the Assembly included on Assembly resolution as follows." I think the text... 25/01/2021 | 11:38:59 Thank you very much dear Chair. Mr Chairman, in 2019 the Assembly welcomed back the Russian delegation in order to relaunch a political dialogue with the only objective to better protect Russian people. On the contrary, the Russian authorities persistently continue to shrink political and civil liberties. The targeted campaign against the leader of the opposition and thousands of Russian citizens confirm the conclusions of the Court of Human Rights that the aim of the ongoing political... 31/01/2020 | 11:07:56 Hello, dear colleagues, Well regardless the highly important topic we don't witness today many colleagues in this house. However, every place here could have been a concrete example of the cyber attacks, which I personally experienced during the election campaigns. However, dear colleagues, in the 21st century, democracy has undergone significant changes and whoever can think of various things maybe in the future our places will be taken by robots. With the digitalisation of the society and...
