Mr President, thank you very much. This is the last budget for this perspective and it seems to me that the most important thing is that we should learn from these missed opportunities that have not been used in recent years to strengthen the competitiveness of the European economy, solve problems and support European businesses, help Ukrainian citizens and what is most important now, that is, to

This is Europe - Debate with the Prime Minister of Portugal, Luís Montenegro (debate)
Madam President, thank you very much. Prime Minister, sir! Commissioner, Ten years ago, I spoke here in this House as the prime minister of the Polish government. I said then that the European Union must be more aware of the sensitivities, diversity and circumstances of individual Member States, that it must respect our sensitivities. This was the time when the migration crisis began due to the wr

Preparation of the European Council meeting of 15-16 October 2026 (debate)
Madam President, thank you very much. Based on President von der Leyen's remarks, the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) is intended once again to become simply a tool for introducing green madness, ideologisation of the European Union. Well, it cannot be so if they are to work, if this money is to be spent sensibly, and today Europe needs investment, they need European family support, this mon

Findings and recommendations of the Special Committee on the European Democracy Shield (debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. Dear Commissioner, Ladies and Gentlemen, I would very much like to support this report because it contains a number of very accurate diagnoses, especially those concerning Russian influence and interference, Chinese or Belarusian influence on what is happening and on democratic processes in the European Union. I'd like to support them, but I can't. We have experience in

Presentation of the programme of activities of the Irish Presidency (debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. Dear Prime Minister, First of all, I would like to thank the Prime Minister very much for presenting his vision for the Irish Presidency. Indeed, a lot of important challenges and we keep our fingers crossed for these goals to be achieved. Security is undoubtedly the most important issue for the European Union today, for all of us. On the other hand, I wanted to focus m

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. The European Union has made many mistakes by introducing too many regulations that have paralyzed the European economy and industry.

Nevertheless, it is necessary to draw conclusions from what has happened and it is not possible at the moment to bring about such a situat

Topical debate requested by a political group (PfE) (Rule 169) - Commission interference in democratic process and elections (topical debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. The problem with this liberal-left majority in this House is that for you, democracy means only what you think is right, and you are fighting against all other views and unfortunately you are wrong. You took away Daniel Obajtek's immunity yesterday for opposing the desecration of values important to Christians, while you tolerate the scams and all sorts of scanda

Energy security, independence and supply in the geopolitical context - ensuring market stability and affordable energy for industry and citizens (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. The ETS has destroyed the European economy. More companies go bankrupt, people lose their jobs, production is moved outside the European Union. This is happening at a time when the ETS has been in place for a long time and you want to deepen it even further. Soon, people will no longer have a chance to pay for electricity,

Guidelines for the 2027 budget - Section III (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. Dear Commissioner, Ladies and Gentlemen, We have an emergency situation because we are in wartime. And today there is no more important issue for Europe than security, so surely the priority that will be in this budget for all of us applicants is these issues. But security is also an economy, it is competitiveness, it is jobs. And we cannot replicate the mistakes

Four years of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine and European contributions to a just peace and sustained security for Ukraine (debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. In 2008, the late President Lech Kaczyński, the President of Poland, sent a message to the world and Europe. In this message, he warned that now is the time for Georgia, and then it will be the time for Ukraine. And that time has come. For years, however, EU leaders have preferred to furnish the Kremlin with billions for oil and gas, build the illusion of a reset, and b

Building a stronger European defence in light of an increasingly volatile international environment (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. Dear Commissioner, Dear Mr President, First there was the Green Deal, which destroyed the European economy. It has made our economy virtually uncompetitive. Businesses are fleeing abroad and need to seek rescue. The German industry, the automotive industry, pressed on Ms Ursula von der Leyen, put pressure on her and Ms Ursula von der Leyen, beyond the rules that

For what is the most doubtful element of this Commission proposal that raises such associations and doubts? It's about interfering in elections. You say that you w

This budget does not adequately reflect this priority. Competitiveness, the economy – this is what we talk about in virtually every debate. It should also be noted that this needs support, but people
Madam President, I'm sorry. From what we have heard from President von der Leyen, unfortunately, there is no picture to solve the problems of the European Union and to guarantee the European Union that it will be competitive, safe and develop.

Madam President, I'm sorry. Dear Commissioner, Ladies and Gentlemen, I listened very carefully to what the Commissioner said.

This is the biggest problem in Europe right now and we need to wake up. Finally, we need to reflect and learn from history. Today, Europe needs a strong economy, a strong industry. This road, which was adopted a few years ago, leads nowhere. That is what this discussion is about today. You are preparing a plan to correct what you yourself have broken. And there will be more debates, more plans, an

This is because it ignores the most serious reason that has contributed to the collapse of European industry, including the steel industry, namely the Green Deal. You are pretending that it is not the Green Deal and th
