What László spoke about.

Although more than 25 years have passed since the Barcelona Declaration, and more than 10 years since the events of the Arab Spring, the Mediterranean region is still facing a number of serious economic, environmental and security challenges. The European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) must serve the interest of the Union, its Member States and the ENP partners at the same time. We must help our partn

One of the proposals in the Bischoff report amending Parliament's Rules of Procedure is the deletion of Rule 197 of the Rules of Procedure. The possibility for one-twentieth of all Members of Parliament to initiate a vote to remove a debate from the agenda will be abolished. An article protecting smaller factions and independents, which aims to protect political diversity and the principle of demo

Dear Mr President, Dear Members, When we read through the proposals for the amendment of the Treaties made by four German and Verhofstadt MEPs, the spirit of 2005 appears in post-Laeken. France and the Netherlands voted against the Constitutional Treaty. Today, the European Parliament wants a new constitution enshrined in a treaty. There would be a president, ministers and deputy ministers of the

Mr. President, please. In the European Parliament, you are very fond of dealing with Hungary and Poland. A few minutes ago Hungary and now Poland. They criticise a country that has for centuries set an example for Europe in defending its freedom and independence. Poland's sovereignty is sacred and inviolable, and it is up to the Polish government to protect it. The European Parliament cannot withd

Madam President, I'm sorry. Human rights have become an international issue in the last 75 years, permeating national, international politics and legislation. The adoption of a general report on this subject for the countries of the world presupposes a great deal of caution and responsibility. In contrast to meaning, human rights do not exist in general, but always develop and gain meaning in the

Madam President, I'm sorry. The reform of the regulation of European political parties is, in some respects, unacceptable to us and constitutes another kind of Trojan horse. Political parties play a decisive role in the formation and expression of the will of the people. The rules governing them at both European and national level must be such as to ensure the free choice of values by the parties.

Madam President, I have a question: The basis of democracy is the independence of the judiciary, as we know very well. But how is it possible for the European Parliament, or its LIBE or AFCO committees, to remain silent in the face of the phenomenon of the politicisation of justice in Western countries? Let me give you an example: the Constitutional Council in France. Who's the president? Laurent

Dear Mr President, The European Parliament, arguing that its members are directly elected, would demand more rights for itself than is currently granted by the Treaties adopted by the Member States. I admit that there is no institution that does not require more powers, this is inherent in the nature of the institutions. It cannot be disputed that the bearer of sovereignty is the national parliame

Madam President, Commissioner, Political parties are an integral part of democratic culture. Democracy should be about representing people and their communities, not ideologically. In the European Parliament, we must reflect the diversity of the peoples of Europe. National political parties form the basis for the organisation of European political parties. As stipulated in the Charter, it is there

Mr President, we are speaking today in a hierarchical dialogue between the European institutions and the institutions of the Member States. However, for me, dialogue is always between equal partners. I also call for a balanced dialogue between courts. I would find it appropriate for the Court of Justice to also consult, for example, national constitutional courts when it comes to identity or the n
