01/10/2026 | 18:41:18 Thank you, Madam Chair, Dear colleagues, Europe is currently facing significant demographic challenges, notably falling birth rates, an ageing population and the management of migration. These developments have a direct impact on social cohesion, the economy, healthcare systems and the labour market. In the face of this reality, we must provide comprehensive, coherent and co-ordinated responses. Demographic resilience must be at the heart of our public policies. This particularly involves... 01/10/2026 | 17:22:00 Thank you, Madam Chair. Honourable Members, I would first like to thank the rapporteur, Mr Sam RUSHWORTH, for this report, which is a clear call for freedom, for the fight against discrimination and for the defence of human rights. Recent events in Türkiye are particularly worrying. The ban on Pride marches in recent years, as well as the arrests and detentions of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) activists, constitute serious breaches of fundamental freedoms. The... 01/10/2026 | 11:29:54 Thank you, Mr President, Ladies and gentlemen, Europe is currently the fastest-warming continent in the world. The consequences of climate change are already evident in rising temperatures, extreme weather events, the loss of biodiversity and growing risks to health and the economy. Faced with this reality, the member states of the Council of Europe have a responsibility to act with determination and to fully involve the younger generations in this effort. Young people are not merely the... 28/01/2026 | 19:24:20 Thank you, Mister Chairman, Dear colleagues, School is the first place where children experience life in society. It is there that they learn to live together, to respect others, to listen to different opinions and to recognise the dignity of each person.

It is the first place to learn about democracy... 01/10/2025 | 16:27:55 Thank you, Madam President, Ladies and gentlemen, One of the great challenges facing our democracies today is ensuring the active, constant and meaningful participation of young people in political and civic life. Defending democratic values, particularly in the face of rising authoritarianism, socio-economic exclusion, digital transformation and the climate crisis, must be at the heart of our political agendas. This is why I wish to express my support for the report presented by Ms Yevheniia... 25/06/2025 | 11:12:41 Thank you, Mr President, Ladies and gentlemen, Transparency, accountability, inclusion, respect for human rights, democracy and the rule of law are the foundations of good governance that every country, large or small, should have, in every field, including the field of sport, which is our focus today. The Principality of Andorra, my little country, had the honour of hosting the Games of the Small States of Europe a few weeks ago. It was an intense week, marked by the fraternity and... 08/04/2025 | 12:08:35 Thank you, Madam President. Ladies and gentlemen, It is an honour and a pleasure for me, as a member of the Andorran delegation, to take the floor for the first time at the plenary session of this Assembly. Is foreign interference a threat to democratic security in Europe?
