What Ondřej spoke about.

Mr President, Mr Commissioner, on behalf of the Patriots, we welcome any steps that, after years of unsustainable green policies, pave the way back to more realistic economic, industrial and climate policy. This naturally also includes this Omnibus proposal, which is specifically designed to provide relief in the chemicals, cosmetic and fertilisers sector. On the chemicals for the CLP Regulation,

Mr President, Commissioner, President, I would like to congratulate the ECA for preparing a robust and overall relevant annual report 2025. The ECA continually proves to be a reliable partner of this House. Now to the report: the ECA concludes again a negative assessment with the confirmed trend of growing irregularities in shared and direct management programmes – definitely something worth cost

Madam President, Commissioner, colleagues, surprisingly, I am not so optimistic: some improvements in ETS and CBAM go in a good direction, and Patriots will be able to support them. But just be clear: these are only very cosmetic changes targeting symptoms and not the cause of EU industry downfall. In medicinal terminology, EU industry is a critical-state, dying patient poisoned by wrong industria

Mr President, Madam Commissioner, Mr Minister, actually, current EU climate policy is not able to protect EU citizens from heatwaves because it is primarily designed to reduce EU-based emissions faster than our EU global competitors and to close industrial jobs before having adequate sustainable replacement. This is, by the way, not at all good for the climate, but mainly this policy weakens the E

Madam President, I am pleased to see that the EIB is in a good condition with a strong quality management system in place. The EIB also learned from several reputation-damaging cases in the past and introduced appropriate preventive measures. Also, the bank maintains an adequate level of transparency considering the need to remain competitive to private banks. On supported projects within the EU,

Mr President, Commissioner, it is realistic to increase the electrification of some industrial processes and also heat supply, but the affordable price of electricity and capacities meeting demands is a key condition. And let's be honest, the demand will grow, through AI, cars, heat pumps – it has been mentioned already. But before we have the required installed capacity in renewable and nuclear,

Madam President, I'd like to address the Commissioner. Mr Commissioner, you repeatedly state that the ETS works well. But what do we see? Strategic sectors delay investments due to low investment return. The same strategic sectors shut down and move production outside the EU. The rate of promised new green jobs is negligible compared to the jobs lost in the EU. Coal and lignite power plants are, a

So to explain the reason between green and sustainable, let's say that green is only one third of sustainable. You have also the economic pillar and you have also the socially acceptable pillar. That's your first question. To your second question. It is simple. Two plus two is four. You want to make two plus two three. That's not possible. You have some global reality and if you don't reflect it y

If green fertilisers, for example, through green hydrogen, were already cheaper, the market would already took place to care. So you still need to remember that many fertilisers are produced through natural gas, through fossil technologies. You can work with that, you can reduce the footprint, you can also diversify the gas sources to reduce the gas price. But simply, green technologies have some

Madam President, Commissioner, mineral fertilisers are vital for EU food production and autonomy. Farmers call at the same time for cheap fertilisers. So, our answer shall be to produce affordable fertilisers in Europe. The EU fertiliser industry must be therefore recognised as a strategic pillar of EU autonomy. Decarbonisation speed in the EU fertiliser sector must go hand in hand with the econom

Thank you for the question. Mr Orbán certainly listened to his citizens. I'll give you a counter-question. Would you like to be surrendered and surrendered to the future of the Czech Republic, so that it can be decided by those who have shattered the economy of Europe, abolished the core, opened the country to migrants? Take a look at what it looks like in some countries in Western Europe. We don'

Mr President, Commissioner, colleagues, you are crying here that Europe is not sufficiently operational and you are blaming those states and citizens who do not agree with your bad proposals. And your solution? Abolish the right of veto. But abolishing the veto right won't solve the problem. You preach more Europe, but you do it by force, with an ideology and rules that suit only some states. This

Definitely. We shall increase the rate of the circular economy. And once we are ready and we have the capacities and we have enough metals, let's say, on our European continent to recycle and go without major imports, then we can cut off the fossil fuels. That's it. That is the strategy of smarter states. They also go outside fossil fuels. Just the speed is in line with the speed of self-sufficien

As I said, renewables will always have a share, but you need metals that are not in Europe. Okay? So you replace one dependency for another. So, the dependencies must be diversified, on the sources and also on the suppliers. I don't know what you're not getting here. It is clear.

Thank you for the question. It's clear that there is an oil crisis once every 30 years or so. It can happen and we can manage it. Your solution is to replace one dependency for another dependency. So if you just replace oil and fossil fuels by renewables only, you will maybe lose the dependency on countries delivering fossil fuels, but you will increase the dependency on countries delivering metal

Madam President, Commissioner, it is naive to think that Europe will be free of fossil fuels in this century. Therefore, it is completely wrong that in any crisis it is your measure to accelerate Green Deal and building more renewables. Yes, these resources will always have a crucial role to play, but if there are too many of them, they take up a lot of space, they are not cheap, and people don't

Of course, I also appreciate domestic energies, but if you just decide that there will be no oil, then there will be no asphalt. Maybe it's more about diversifying the oil from more places to make it safer and maybe the price could be lower. But simply if you don't import oil, you don't build new roads, you don't have medicines, etc. This means: How are you going to do this without the oil? You're

Colleague, thank you for accepting the question. If you see this Europe without oil imports, I can ask you. How do you plan to build new roads? Because you know that oil also includes oil, from which asphalt is made and you need it for new roads. So what do you want to build roads from in Slovakia?

Mr President, Commissioner, as the shadow rapporteur for the 'other institutions', allow me to thank all those who participated in the discharge activities. They are very important. When it comes to the other institutions, many of them are doing a very good job. I would especially like to highlight and positively assess the work of the European Court of Auditors and the European Ombudsman. On the

Madam President, Commissioner, good evening. No one questions protection of the water environment, but our measures shall not contradict. And I am afraid that our global rivals must be laughing sometimes when it comes to EU actions, because look what we are doing. The critical medicines act – I would say a very good proposal – tries to get medicine production back on EU soil, and now implementing

Madam President, this does not happen often, but I must agree with my colleague Andriukaitis that it really makes sense to recognise obesity as a non-communicable disease of civilization. Thank you for that. It is in Europe's interest to combat population obesity, especially among children. For food, eat more local products and a varied diet, on the contrary, avoid ultra-processed product

Madam President, Mr Commissioner, this is a very impressive and ambitious project. Its success could increase energy autonomy in states around the North Sea. Also, guaranteed political support is a very good signal. However, even more important is the long‑term trust of private investors of the capital and this is not guaranteed. The uncertainty remains high. Slow grid development, scale‑up issues

The follow up is clear. Germany has invested a lot in renewables, and still they have on average 20 times, 15 times higher carbon footprint in electricity production than France with nuclear. So basically today they are the same as Czech Republic with coal and nuclear and, with nuclear, France is much better. So if you invest only in renewables, you will end up like in Germany – you will have gas

Thank you, honourable colleague, for accepting the question. I understand very well that you would like to invest in renewables as soon as possible, and of course, then have the local electricity production. Unfortunately, we also need nuclear as part of the solution and it takes some time and for this, we need the fossil fuels. Because how else can you explain that today in France currently the e

Actually, without coal and steel, we would not be having the debate here. So maybe you could learn something from European history – it would be nice as well. And when it comes to prices, you must also understand that you need to invest a lot into the grid, because the consumer doesn't pay the cost, the price on the market – he pays the final price. So we need to find a balance between the speed o
