What Annalisa spoke about.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, this umpteenth debate precedes a very important vote that will tell us whether we will have an Asylum and Immigration Pact. The Lega delegation has asked, in these years of work, to prevent departures by defending borders without having to risk prison, as is happening today to Minister Salvini, to establish identification centres in transit countries managed by

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the Commissioner said as soon as we took office that we need cheap non-EU workers in Europe. In other times, without hypocrisy, they would have called them slaves. On this plan that opens up criminal businesses, as repeatedly denounced, legal immigration is encouraged without blocking illegal immigration. Legal immigration is therefore an addition and not a s

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, on the side of small and medium-sized enterprises, honest work and our economic system, we are saying no to a text, the proposal for a directive on misleading environmental labels, which, as a practice in this legislature, circumvents the objective of the proposal, because it is aimed at something else. Rather than protecting the consumer, as in the Commission's

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I have listened to this debate and it has marked me a little, especially for a very political reason, for the political group to which I belong and to which I firmly belong. That is why I would like to say to all my colleagues - most of them have already expressed their skepticism and hesitation - that we are very clear about the role of Europe and the role of n

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, first of all I would like to thank the co-rapporteur, Mr Sokol, the shadow rapporteurs present in the Chamber and all the staff of the negotiating team for the work they have done on this file: our assistants, the groups, the two committee secretariats and the other services who contributed hours of work to the text to the vote tomorrow, on whic

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, someone here in this House has the courage to exploit the Lampedusa massacre, in which 368 migrants drowned ten years ago, and it is a cowardly act. That tragedy has served in these ten years to build a media castle of goodness, respectability and beautiful words behind which hide, not so veiled, great international business and criminal affairs, with which E

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in these four years of the parliamentary term, the European Union has managed not to give definitive answers to the immigration emergency: so many handshakes, so many catwalks, so many beautiful words; results, to date: zero. For almost ten years, Brussels has been working on reforms on which there are no majorities and, in the meantime, weight and responsibilit

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, only three weeks ago I was in Lampedusa on a mission with the LIBE Committee. All the colleagues present have experienced first-hand the work, self-denial and sacrifices of a population that has given assistance and hospitality in recent years, "offering to those who have arrived the best face of Europe", as recalled by Mayor Mannino on the occa

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, today we are finally discussing an important agreement for the security of our citizens, the so-called e-Evidence package, which concerns the exchange of electronic evidence, e-mails, messages via apps and any digital data necessary to prosecute any type of crime. Investigative bodies tell us that 85% of criminal investigations use digital data, of

Colleague, you tell us what you did in two terms and what you did to the government for a whole decade. Because this government, in a few months, has given important answers to the most fragile and among the most fragile there are certainly the category of fishermen, and certainly not to the strong powers, those that you have guaranteed in the past governments of our State.

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, we will not tire of repeating a resounding 'no' to your proposals, nor will we allow an entire sector, fisheries, and with it fishermen, or workers who are not only unprotected by this Europe that pretends to be democratic, but who are opposed to it. If it is not your intention to eliminate trawling, you have to put it in writing, because reading t

Signora Presidente, signor Commissario, onorevoli colleghi, controlli alle frontiere esterne, e non a Lampedusa, e rimpatri: That's what we've been asking for for four years. Finally, we are allowed a debate that calls for a new approach and the extreme left decides to boycott it, not sending Members to take the floor. The same left that makes proclamations and shouts at the scandal for the massac

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the left in this Parliament is out and continues to look for the perpetrators of the massacres at sea, going so far as to shamefully accuse Prime Minister Meloni and Deputy Prime Minister Salvini and with him the Italian Coast Guard, which, instead, is engaged every day in boat rescue operations. None of them, however, ever thought, for example, of accusing the

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the line taken by the leaders at the European Council seems to be a clear change of pace. Perhaps it has finally been recognised that it is important for Europe as a whole, and not just for a few countries, to ensure effective control of external borders, with a clear reference to the specific features of maritime borders. This is what we have been asking for

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I will be brief, I will take the floor because there is no debate on the file, to thank the shadow rapporteurs for their excellent cooperation on the dossier relating to the international agreement between the European Union and New Zealand on the exchange of personal data between Europol and the New Zealand authorities responsible for combating serious crime an

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, first of all I would like to thank all my colleagues, the shadow rapporteurs, the secretariat, the staff of the political groups and the parliamentary assistants for the constructive work that we have carried out in recent months and that will come to an end tomorrow, with the approval of our report on the action plan to promote long-distance an

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioners, in the general emptiness of the words used on this subject, there are some unexpected, rather than meaningful, words from the EPP Group leader, Mr Weber, whom I quote: If you can't distinguish between illegal migrants, asylum seekers and refugees, then you can't help those who really need help. And again: I think it is necessary to protect borders

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, today is yet another debate on deaths and violence on the borders of Europe, today with reference to the events in Melilla and the violent and threatening crowd that tried not to enter, Commissioner, but to break through the border between Morocco and Spain. Pedro Sánchez, Spanish Socialist Prime Minister, called the tragedy "an attack on the territorial inte

Yes, President, thank you, we are in favour.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, we propose to add to the agenda a statement by the Commission with a debate on the issue of inefficiencies in the air sector affecting European citizens. This is an urgent situation that is becoming truly unsustainable and is affecting millions of travelers on the continent, impacting our economy, especially in the tourism sector. We therefore call for a shif

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I would also like to thank the Commissioner to whom our work and our appeal is addressed, but I see that she is absent, perhaps she had something more interesting to do than listen to us. I represent in this House the two largest Italian islands, Sicily and Sardinia, islands that, only thanks to their extraordinary beauty and the great adaptability of the citize

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I shall be very brief. We have raised an objection. A year ago in this House, we approved this instrument to be an instrument of regulatory harmonisation that would facilitate the exceptional movement of our citizens between Member States, so that it would be removed once the pandemic was over. Today in this House we are all fortunately back to normal. We vot

(IT) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, we have heard so many beautiful words of goodwill, in favour of the integration of Roma rights, in support of which we give generous funding. Funding stolen from millions of European citizens who carry out their duty every day. Well, today I would like to remind you that, in a model of civil society that is truly inclusive in the Christian sense of the term

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, we are here today for a simple and important reason: Citizens deserve to know the truth about the massive negotiation that seems to have taken place through an exchange of messages between President von der Leyen and the CEO of Pfizer, concerning the supply of the COVID vaccine to the EU. The response of the institutions in the aftermath of the spread of the vir

(IT) Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the press, media and TV are full of images that none of us would have liked to see, such as that of an entire family itself, lifeless and covered in rags on a sidewalk just outside Kiev, assault stations, children and mothers on the run, separated families. A sad and unacceptable return to the past. Helping is a duty and Europe is doing its part. The act
