What Villy spoke about.

Madam President, there are times when you have to speak in clear language; I'm going to do that. Trump's betrayal goes far beyond Ukraine; it goes far beyond Europe. By waiving sanctions in Russia, Trump is betraying the very principles America helped build and defend for generations. Freedom, the rule of law, the principle that borders could not be changed by force. Now an American president is h

Madam President, Whatever one thinks of the tragedies in Israel and Gaza, in reality everyone should be able to agree on one thing: that the leaders responsible should be prosecuted in court. Hamas leaders for their reprehensible crimes against humanity on October 7, and Netanyahu for the mass murder in Gaza and the systematic war crimes of the Israeli army. That is why it is deeply serious when t

Madam President, This summer, the war in Ukraine crossed a horrifying border. Its senseless horrors have now been longer than World War I and soon longer than World War II. Many of us do not see the consequences of Putin's assault in daily life. But when you look a Ukrainian in the eye, it's hard not to feel anything. Perhaps his brother is one of the many thousands who have lost their lives or mo

Mr. President! On Monday, a Russian frigate fired a flare at a Danish military helicopter. On the same day, a suspected Russian drone was found in the Baltic Sea between Bornholm and Poland, and a few days ago Russia attacked a train in Ukraine a few kilometers from the Polish border. Including cyberattacks and sabotage across Europe. These are not random, one-off events; Russia is turning up the

Mr President! Many of us are experiencing in these weeks that Russia's aggression is coming closer. Last night, a Russian warship fired flares at a Danish military helicopter. Russia attacked a train of European diplomats in Ukraine close to Poland's border also this week. Earlier it emerged that the Kremlin is planning sabotage against our Danish companies and recruiting ordinary people to help t

Mr President! The subject of today's debate is the reconstruction of Gaza, and I say this in order to inform the right, which would like to discuss everything else. But more importantly: Respect for human life and human dignity must be restored. More than 70 000 people are confirmed dead. Nothing in the world – not even the terrible terrorist attacks by Hamas – justifies killing many innocent peop

Madam President! On 28 September 2025, together with other colleagues from here, I was an election observer in the parliamentary elections in Moldova. There was great nervousness in the run-up to the election due to a massive Russian influence with misinformation, with bribery and so on. But fortunately, the pro-European democratic parties won. That is why Moldova can continue its path towards EU

Mr President! I and my fellow MEPs have just returned from a visit to Ukraine, where we saw and heard about the consequences of the massive terrorist bombings on the civilian population. But at the same time, Ukraine is also a country where we see glimmers of hope that I have not experienced during the course of the war. We see it at the front, where the Ukrainians are winning the initiative to th

Madam President! Poverty destroys people. Poverty destroys society. That is why the fight against poverty is so important, and unfortunately it is going the wrong way at the moment. One reason is the way migrant workers are treated in a number of countries where they work in wage and other conditions that are significantly lower than those working in an organised labour market. Therefore, the figh

Madam President! The elections in Hungary two weeks ago signify a breakthrough, a real opportunity for a new course. For the benefit of Hungary, of course, but also for Ukraine, for Europe and for the rest of the world. It is now over to block support for Ukraine, for accession negotiations and for sanctions packages. The sum of this cannot be underestimated. This is a turning point we stand by. W

Mr. President! We are in a completely new security reality, where the strongest powers have renounced the rules-based world order. At a time of uncertainty and instability, it is crucial that democracies together resist external pressures. Some of our best friends in this changing world are the Canadian people. 77% of Canadians are in favour of strengthening trade with the EU. That is why we must

Madam President! Thank you for your cooperation on the poverty strategy. I grew up in difficult circumstances, and I had siblings who came out to serve when they were 9 and 11. On the other hand, I was lucky to live in a country that had a welfare system that allowed me to take an education and helped me move on. This is not the case everywhere in Europe, and the paradox is that today we are riche

Mr President! In the current geopolitical situation, it is crucial that we are able to stand on our own feet to a much greater extent. We need to become independent. Independent of both the United States and China, which today supplies 60 percent of components for drones. We must remember that drones play a crucial role in modern warfare. We see it most clearly in Ukraine. Therefore, we must build

Mr President! In Europe, we believe in alliances and agreements. The precious experience we have gained from the horrors of the Second World War. Trump, on the other hand, believes in the strongest right – including the right to take whatever you want. We also believe in alliances. He doesn't. He believes in America First, which is on its way to becoming America Alone. Our way of being is attracti

Mr President! Greenland. In Greenlandic, the name is "Land of the Greenlanders". Trump has clearly not understood this, because Greenland is not for sale, and Greenland will never be for sale. Nor with threats of political punishment, economic punishment and military steps. Let me be clear: You cannot deprive a country, a people, of the right to decide their own future. The big difference is that

Madam President, I take this point of order referring to Rule 41 of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament. Dear Europeans, dear colleagues, the time has come. This is Europe's decisive moment. We are very grateful for the strong support for Denmark and Greenland in recent days, but now is the time to act. If we give in to aggression and threats from the Trump administration, we send a

Thank you very much for your question. No, I think it would be false blame to say that the EU has reacted very swiftly and very quickly in this, and I think a lot of us want Europe to play a more decisive role in this world. So do we, and that means taking a leading role also in making alliances in this world. I do believe that we're still a big majority who want a world of order and rules, and no
