DESpeech

Iran’s unprecedented attack against Israel, the need for de-escalation and an EU response (debate)

Mr President! Not only today, in my last speech in the European Parliament, I stand here as a free Member of Parliament and not as a representative of the AfD delegation, especially because the occasion is the cowardly and devious drone and missile attack of the terrorist Iranian mullah regime on Israel. But not only the AfD, but also the EU: Europe must understand that Iran's attack on Israel and

DESpeech

The immediate risk of mass starvation in Gaza and the attacks on humanitarian aid deliveries

Mr President! The population in Gaza suffers, yes, and certainly many innocents are affected. But Israel has the right, not only the right, but the duty, to ensure that October 7 never repeats itself. 70% of Palestinians supported the terrorist attack after being questioned, and among the cowardly murderers were reported to be many civilians. I don't want the images of cheering Palestinians out of

DESpeech

Type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to their emissions and battery durability (Euro 7) (debate)

Mr President! It is gratifying that, once again, the Euro 7 standard has allowed majorities to form across factions, which instead of green ideology and visions could at least partially maintain a measure and centre for the car industry and thus ultimately also be consumer-friendly, because it would have been the cars in the low price segment that would have experienced a massive increase in price

DESpeech

EU climate risk assessment, taking urgent action to improve security and resilience in Europe (debate)

Madam President, Commissioner! So now the European Environment Agency has published a climate risk analysis. Of course, this report also does not lack the allegedly hundreds of thousands of apocalyptic climate deaths – which for me, this EU agency has also simply delegitimised itself scientifically. Yes, humanity's success story is based on adapting to an ever-changing climate. And no, not CO2, bu

DESpeech

Empowering farmers and rural communities - a dialogue towards sustainable and fairly rewarded EU agriculture (debate)

Mr President! Once again, angry farmers are standing in front of the European Parliament in Strasbourg this week, as they were in Brussels last week. Do you really have to fly eggs, manure or burning hay around your ears first? It is not just about the suspension of set-asides, it is not just about the suffocating bureaucracy you have created, about Mercosur and unfair competition; it is not just

DESpeech

EU2040 climate target (debate)

Mr President! Not only that net-zero CO2 is to be achieved by 2050 and from there even a removal of CO2 from the atmosphere is planned, with the ludicrous goal of reducing this atmospheric CO2. No, the political climate madness is to start already in 2040 to new heights: 90% CO2 reduction compared to 1990. Let's take a look at my country, the green climate world champion Germany: The de-industrial

DESpeech

Plants obtained by certain new genomic techniques and their food and feed (debate)

Madam President, Normally, it is rather rare for me to support Commission regulations. In the case of the regulation on plants produced with new genomic techniques, this is definitely the case. So-called NGT plants do not contain any foreign genes, so they could also be caused by natural mutations. In my opinion, however, setting the limit for 20 genetic modifications is too arbitrary as a natural

DESpeech

Humanitarian situation in Gaza, the need to reach a ceasefire and the risks of regional escalation (debate)

Mr President! So you want to talk about the humanitarian situation of the people of Gaza. A population of which, according to a recent survey, one in two would vote for Hamas terrorists and over 70% approve of the bestial attack on Israel, which massacred over 1,200 innocent men, women and children. A Hamas that is also building its terror network in Europe. It would be better if they dealt intens

DESpeech

Outcome of the UN Climate Change Conference 2023 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (COP28) (debate)

Mr President! How would the 70,000 participants of the climate conference have come to Dubai without fossil fuels? Hardly with the cargo bike. It is therefore also good for the climate professional churns that no binding exit from fossil fuels has been decided and nuclear energy is seen as a solution. Both are available both as primary energy sources and as needed at all times, in contrast to elec

DESpeech

European Health Data Space (debate)

Madam President, This regulation on the European Health Data Space with its compulsory digital health record is the perversion of any data protection that actually provides for active consent for the collection of personal data. It is a political castration of the Member States if national health policy is replaced by a totalitarian data octopus Brussels. It is the end of medical secrecy and the i

DESpeech

Sustainable use of plant protection products (A9-0339/2023 - Sarah Wiener) (vote)

Madam President, I want to do this in German. This is our amendment 376 part 2, for which our ID Group requested a roll-call vote in due time. And in this current list, which, moreover, only this morning - which is actually scandalous - which only this morning actually went around, this is not listed, and that is why I request that this roll-call vote be inserted.

DESpeech

Sustainable use of plant protection products (debate)

Madam President, Mrs Kyriakides, ladies and gentlemen. The current Commission proposal on the use of plant protection products would have catastrophic consequences not only for German farmers. And to an even greater extent, this is the case for the version prepared by the Committee. Not only I have received countless letters from rightly angry farmers who are simply anxious about their existence.

DESpeech

Type-approval of motor vehicles and engines with respect to their emissions and battery durability (Euro 7) (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen. Right in front: The Commission's proposal on Euro 7 standards is completely unacceptable. Is it not enough for you to abolish the car industry in the EU by 2035? Do you want to move the date forward to 2025? The committee proposal put to the vote today is better, but not good. I am not talking about individual content - a difficult undertaking in a

DESpeech

Generational renewal in the EU farms of the future (debate)

Mr President! Well, what could be the reason why we run out of young farmers and the generational change in agriculture does not work out so well? What works excellently, on the other hand, is the Höfesterben. Why don't you go out, dear colleagues, get your patent and leather shoes dirty with barn dung! As one farmer recently told me: I just keep enough land for my own supply, the rest I put down

DESpeech

European protein strategy (debate)

Mr President! Now it is believed in Brussels that a protein strategy has to be adopted. And although the present draft is quite reasonable in many places, in principle I have the following to say about it. Firstly: The principle of subsidiarity still applies – at least theoretically. Secondly: Legislatively pushing insects as food over the heads of citizens is also categorically to be rejected fro

DESpeech

The despicable terrorist attacks by Hamas against Israel, Israel’s right to defend itself in line with humanitarian and international law and the humanitarian situation in Gaza (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. The cowardly, devious massacre of Israeli civilians by Palestinian Hamas is also an attack on our Western civilization, on values such as tolerance and togetherness. It is an attack on all of our religious heritage. But here, in the EU, you only stand by Israel's side with mere symbolism and hollow words. Worse still! By not getting tired of admonishing Israel t

DESpeech

Urban wastewater treatment (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. In general, a directive on urban waste water makes sense. But what does it have to look for in the hands of an EU Commission? These technocrats, well-alimented by the citizen, do not have to fear the billions of dollars in additional costs caused by a nonsensical and comprehensive fourth stage of cleansing; however, it is disastrous for citizens who have already

DESpeech

The proposed extension of glyphosate in the EU (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen. For decades, increasingly aggressive anti-glyphosate NGOs have been creating a mood against the use of glyphosate. Not infrequently, these lobby groups are princely fed by the organic industry, which wants to get rid of the annoying competition. Glyphosate is not only the oldest plant protection product in use at almost 50 years of age, but also th

DESpeech

Medicine shortages and strategic healthcare autonomy in the EU (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen. Firstly: According to the Lisbon Treaty, health is a matter for the Member States and has nothing to look for in the hands of an EU Commission, which, incidentally, is under investigation for significant irregularities, possibly even corruption, in the procurement of the so-called corona vaccines, and blackened contracts, too expensive, too many va

DESpeech

Reviewing the protection status of wolves and other large carnivores in the EU (topical debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen. It is noteworthy that the EU Commission is only now initiating the long overdue discussion about the protection status of wolves. First the beloved pony Dolly of the von der Leyen family had to fall victim to the predator. The complaints and fears raised for years by farmers, ranchers, hunters and citizens about the safety of humans and animals with regard to

DESpeech

Ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe (debate)

Mr President! Life expectancy has been steadily increasing throughout Europe for decades and air quality has never been as good as it is today. But these facts do not, of course, prevent you from concocting a kind of air pollution mass extinction with hundreds of thousands of unproven premature deaths – even broken down into individual pollutants as the peak of scientific desolation. Just tell us

DESpeech

Single market emergency instrument (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen. Above all, the new Single Market emergency instrument ensures the security of supply chains within the EU. In fact, it is the abolition of free entrepreneurship. That is, when an EU Commission in a planned economic direction overrides the market in self-proclaimed crises. A power that extends so far as to rule individual manufacturers into the order books. A

DESpeech

Delivering on the Green Deal: risk of compromising the EU path to the green transition and its international commitments (debate)

Madam President, Everyone should agree to the Green Deal ban marathon in the Green-Socialist step. Otherwise, according to Mr Timmermans, the necessary solidarity is lacking to force the rest of the world to commit joint green suicide. Even the alleged resistance of EPP leader Manfred Weber against the plans of the EU Commission President with a CDU party book was only of a formal nature. The EPP

DESpeech

COVID-19 pandemic: lessons learned and recommendations for the future (debate)

Mr President! In Germany, the head of the Standing Vaccination Commission recommends that severely damaged coronavirus vaccine victims do not spend them as a vaccine side effect, so that the treatment costs are covered by the health insurance companies. 55,000 serious cases of vaccine side effects are officially recorded in Germany alone. But they are also just the tip of a hidden iceberg. Over-mo

DESpeech

Nature restoration (debate)

Mr President! The Nature Restoration Ordinance is nothing more than a gigantic expropriation and extermination program for farmers. A study estimates that only 3.6 million of the former 15 million farms in the EU remain in 2040. And your eco-bio-climate moist pack is not yet priced in. If you want good, affordable and local food that has not been flown halfway around the world before it lands on o
