22/06/2026 | 17:39:11 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear colleagues, Within my speech today and in the framework of the Progress Report of the Bureau and the Standing Committee, I would like to highlight several important developments and areas that require continued attention, that these bodies were focusing on during the last months. First, I would like to reiterate my appreciation for the Assembly’s continued commitment to supporting a comprehensive, just and lasting peace for Ukraine and... 22/04/2026 | 16:24:42 Thank you so much. Dear Commissioner, This winter Russia deliberately targeted electricity, infrastructure and all heating systems in Kyiv. For example, in my constituency in Kyiv, on the left bank of Kyiv, almost one million people were living almost without heating, electricity and in some cases without water. This is not only about infrastructure damages. This is a systematic violation of fundamental human rights, including the right of life, dignity, housing and basic living conditions... 20/04/2026 | 12:41:57 Dear President, dear colleagues, Within the framework of the progress report of the Bureau and Standing Committee, I would like to highlight several important elements that deserve particular attention. First, I would like to express our appreciation to the Bureau for the adoption of the January 2026 Resolution "Supporting the commitment to a comprehensive, just and lasting peace for Ukraine and the security of the European continent". This is a strong and timely political signal. It reflects... 27/01/2026 | 20:09:17 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear colleagues, We often use the phrase "comprehensive, just, and lasting peace" as if it were a goal for a distant future. But let us be honest: in the world we inhabit today, those words are not a luxury. They are a survival strategy. If peace is not comprehensive, it is merely a pause. If it is not just, it is merely an insult. And if it is not lasting, it is simply the preparation for a larger, more devastating war. We must stop... 01/10/2025 | 17:36:54 Thank you Mister President. First of all, I would like to say that we highly appreciate this work and this report because it's very important not only for Ukraine, but for all of Europe, because it's about justice. If we talk about the International Claims Commission for Ukraine, I would like to share with you some information. For example, for the entire period of Russian military aggression, which began in 2014, the the total losses inflicted on Ukraine could reach $1 trillion. Losses... 01/10/2025 | 13:32:10 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear colleagues, Behind every number, behind every report of “detained journalists,” there is a human life, a family waiting, and a voice silenced by force. Let me share just one story. This Monday, the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize was awarded to Maksym BUTKEVYCH, a Ukrainian journalist and human rights defender. For decades, Maksym has given his voice to others: refugees, vulnerable communities, those without protection. He was known for... 25/06/2025 | 17:34:34 President, dear colleagues, this is one of the most difficult topics for the Ukrainian delegation. We highly understand all the pain and we highly sympathise with all those who suffered from this strategy and from this conflict. Because we met with the same axis of evil which includes Russia, Iran, North Korea and others in 2014. All our kids, all our people. If you ask small kids what the Shahed is, they know the answer. Because Iran's Shahed drones kill our kids every night, every day. Even... 24/06/2025 | 17:41:15 Thank you, Mister President. First of all, I would like to we will start by thanking our rapporteurs for raising such important and such sensitive topics not only for Ukraine, but I think for all Europe. Since the last time we gathered in this chamber, Ukraine has endured more cruel nights, more missile strikes on homes, schools and hospitals. Even today, when we started our discussion about these reports in Ukraine, in Dnipro city, which is a southern city, we also had an awful missile... 08/04/2025 | 16:13:26 Thank you very much. First of all, I would like to say thank you very much to the rapporteur for such fantastic work. As a member of the Ukrainian delegation, its a matter of fact that when we discuss foreign interference, especially in the light of electoral processes, the primary focus is on Russia. This state has a proven track record of actively working to undermine the integrity of democratic elections through various means, including disinformation campaigns, cyberattacks, and efforts... 30/01/2025 | 16:46:08 Hello. First of all, I would like to say thank you to the rapporteur for the great work, and actually, I would like to talk a little bit about this very important issue and very important problem in Europe. In today’s changing global economy, gender equality is not just about fairness – it is essential for economic growth. All around the world, women’s involvement in the workforce, access to business opportunities and the adoption of gender-sensitive budgeting are helping shape the future of...
