26/01/2023 | 11:00:31 Dear Mister President, dear colleagues. I would like to commend the rapporteur Mr Damien COTTIER for this excellent report, as it is of utmost importance at the time, and already 11 months Putin is destroying with impunity an entire state in Europe in front of the eyes of the civilised world, trying to wipe the Ukrainian nation off the face of the Earth, violating, or I should say raping international law in a most perverted manner. I am convinced that this report will, for sure, encourage... 25/01/2023 | 13:06:37 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear Mr President, dear colleges, I would like to command a reporter, Mr John HOWELL for good report as it is of utmost importance, especially today when not only a full-scale war and genocide against Ukrainian nation is happening in the heart of Europe in my country. But, an enormous ecocide against nature and environment in the whole Europe. Massive killing and bombing (5000 exploded bombs and about 15000 units of military equipment of... 24/01/2023 | 13:15:12 (Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2) Dear Mr President, dear colleges! I would like to command a reporter, Ms Petra BAYR for good report as it is of utmost importance, especially today when sexual violence is perpetrated in the heart of Europe in my country, Ukraine. This report is giving a visibility to awful atrocities committed by Russia, showing evidence of violence against victims: not only women but men, the elderly, children and even infants. There is also a gender-based... 23/06/2022 | 17:13:13 Thank you. Dear Chair, Dear Colleagues, In report about the role of Council of Europe insecurity this Tuesday, it was stressed that migrants, energy, and food have been weaponised by Russia. As the barbaric war was launched, the terrorist country Russia is creating all kind of crises: energy crisis, ecocide. Now it's using food crisis as a weapon. After the failure of blitzkrieg, Russia moved to plan B: destroying all of Ukrainians' infrastructure and economy, logistic chains, mining fields... 22/06/2022 | 17:50:11 Dear Mister President, Dear Colleagues, The three reports on the humanitarian consequences of war, on people fleeing the war, refugee children, women, are of the utmost importance. As the war in Ukraine has caused the largest and fastest displacement of people in Europe, almost 40% of Ukrainians fled the war and became displaced persons internally or externally. We all see how many lives, homes, jobs, and hopes were destroyed in the last 190 days of full scale war. I want to thank the... 28/04/2022 | 12:35:08 Thank you, Mr Chair. Dear President, Colleagues, Rapporteur, Today war is in our common house. The aggressor has come to our home during what we are building for decades, to kill and rape our children and women, to deprive us from what we value the most: dignity, freedom and the right to life. Here in PACE, it was a constant line of policy of appeasement of the aggressor, that all of these years was invited to dialogue but was preparing for war. Did PACE make its conclusions after the war of... 27/04/2022 | 11:33:24 Thank you. Dear colleagues, distinguished Chair. First of all, I would like to thank the rapporteur Mr Frank SCHWABE for enormous work and detailed comprehensive report on consequences of the most cruel and horrible war in Ukraine. And special thanks to Mr Frank SCHWABE that, as a political group leader, together with colleagues and PACE President, visited Ukraine expressing the solidarity with the Ukrainian people at this very difficult time of war. PACE and the Council of Europe has shown... 15/03/2022 | 11:08:42 Thank you. Madam President, Dear colleagues, Today war is in our common European house. The aggressor has come to our home to ruin, to injure and kill our children and women. It's not only an attack on Ukraine, it's an attack on Europe's security system, and Ukraine is paying by the life of our nation. All of us, nine women from the Ukrainian delegation, came to PACE from Ukraine, that turned into a sea of human misery, but also a sea of dignity and struggle. It took me more than two days to... 24/01/2022 | 20:08:15 Undelivered speech, Rules of Procedure Art. 31.2 I have right! Three words that symbolize the three pillars on which the world must stand. They are guaranteed by the UN General Assembly Convention on the Rights of the Child. The Convention combines the full range of human rights that apply to children - public, political, economic, social. Still, we must admit, that often child participation is not given sufficient priority and support by us, adults. We can see it from amendments to report of... 29/09/2021 | 18:20:41 Thank you Mr President, dear colleagues, Mr Oleksandr MEREZHKO, distinguished rapporteurs, On my behalf I would like to support and thank you for your enormous work. We indeed have had a very important historical, ecological day here in PACE. I'm sure there will be unanimous support of the resolutions this evening as there was in the first part of the sitting. The most important decision will be to finally supplement the European Convention on Human Rights with the separate protocol on...
