What Petras spoke about.

Dear MEPs, we are already very often talking in the European Parliament about simplifying legislation. Yesterday my colleague brought two pieces of legislation: one that was redocratic, that was the volume of 5 thousand, and that simplified one that was not brought by myself: maybe 35,000 leaves and helped to carry a protective one. Dear friends, about 103 references to other legal acts and those

Dear MEPs, Europe regulates everything. The world, America, China – create. A huge danger to Europe and freedom of speech, we started to regulate, like Putin, websites of all kinds. And see if it's a shame that instead of building ourselves, we don't even have a satellite that would give us a chance if Musk cuts off, so that Ukraine can continue to guide the satellites and know where to point the

Dear President. Hello, MEPs. Stupid is the discussion – peace will be then, according to Putin's demands, if we give Ukraine, and most likely Europe after Ukraine, and then Putin will envision the whole world, and then there will be peace. But I don't think we should get into such a silly debate. But I want to talk basically about the European Union, about us. And I remembered the words of Sacred

Honourable rapporteur, the President of the European Commission has acknowledged that the closure of nuclear power plants is a huge mistake. One of them was closed when Lithuania joined the European Union and Lithuania. Today, Lithuania is again asking for additional money to be allocated to the process of closing the nuclear power plant. Shouldn't that money be better spent on building a new nucl

Dear rapporteur, would you disagree with the Prime Minister of Portugal, who has just spoken and touched on the subject, including real estate? How to deal? The main thing he said: "If there is too little housing, there is a need to increase demand, to build housing for both public enterprises and private capital". It seems to me that he answered this question very accurately, how to deal with tod

Dear President. Honourable Commissioner, you said that Europe has done a lot, but it has not done as much to defend Ukraine. Five years of war, unprotected airspace, no defensive forces to protect airspace. Russia, with a population of only 140 million and a budget twenty or fifty times smaller. We are unable to provide Ukraine with the necessary support. It's a shame. Less talk, more work. 50% of

Dear rapporteur, you are the representative of the ruling majority. I repeat, there are almost 50 billion people living in the European Union. Nearly half a billion. Five years of war are going on and you are not defending Ukraine, you are allowing innocent people to be killed. You make a lot of statements, you accept sanctions, but you don't enforce them, you bypass them. After all, maybe less ne

Mr President, honourable Members, honourable Commissioner. How can you come up with such an idea to prepare such a waste regulation? Do you live in space? Have you not heard what von der Leyen said today, your Commissioner, that you are reducing, simplifying the rules, cutting red tape, and actually creating it? Von der Leyen hasn't heard of herself. I counted through her speech; she said that she

Dear rapporteur, you are the representative of the ruling majority. Five years of war in Ukraine, exploding buildings, killing people. Are you not ashamed that the largest and strongest union in almost the world cannot defend Ukraine? A lot of words in five years. But the work seems to me to be little. What do you think of a European Union that has not defended Ukraine for five years?

Mr President, honourable Members, I believe that the mobility project will not solve the fundamental problem of the European Union. Why is there so much immigration to the EU? Because there is a lack of labour. This is the main thing, in my opinion, unbalanced social policy, and often that social policy discourages work. Unemployment benefits often encourage a person not to work, not to look for a

Thank you for agreeing to answer my question. I think that the biggest problem with the labour market in the European Union is not mobility, but labour shortages. And do you not think that this is the main problem, our social policy, which is not regulated, which promotes unemployment, unemployment benefits. It is often much better for a person to be at home and not to work, and to receive benefit

Mr President, honourable Commissioner. In the interests of the single market, I believe that we should also harmonise taxes. Value added tax in Lithuania is one of the highest in the European Union. In particular, value added tax is high on food products. In many countries of the European Union, the value added tax on food products is much lower, but there are no reservations in Lithuania. I belie

Mr President, honourable Commissioner. There are a lot of problems with fisheries. I have already mentioned that Lithuania borders the Baltic Sea and the Curonian Lagoon with Russia. In 2023, Lithuania banned commercial fisheries, which Russia is very pleased with. This is not enough: many of our fishermen have demanded that they cut their boats. He has, of course, received compensation from the E

Lithuania borders the Baltic Sea and the Curonian Lagoon, along with Russia. Doesn't it seem strange to you that, according to the requirements of the European Union, Lithuania has banned industrial fishing, and next to Russia has not banned such fishing? As a Member of Parliament, I could not support such a stupid law because fish from Lithuania enter Russia. Russia is catching, fishing, and Lith

I think we will all agree that there are no ideologies here, neither left nor right. We all see the big problem that this drug business or criminals are thriving just in Europe. And one trend – do you not think that power structures are intertwined with the criminal world, those who have control? For example, in Lithuania, twelve officers and municipal employees who were involved in smuggling were

Yes, my dear rapporteur. You Social Democrats are struggling very hard with climate change, with CO2, to be zero CO2 emissions. This is where Europe has made great progress. Industry, in fact, can be said to be stagnating, CO2 less waste, but Europe suffers the most from heat. What are you doing wrong?

I agree that there is no one way, but I am talking about the fact that the European Union needs to be more assertive, more principled, less talkative and more real action towards Ukraine. That's what the thing is. You have adopted so many resolutions that you love Ukraine. It seems to me that all the roofs of Brussels can be detached, but that does not help. More work.

Dear President. Hello, I am from the faction that not all members support Ukraine, they are from the Alternative for Germany party. Most of them are members of our group. But there is democracy in the group. I vote in person, always supporting Ukraine. I was never warned by the group. Act according to your conscience. It seems to me that you, the right, do not have such rights here in the European

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, you must nevertheless recognise that Europe is regulated by the United States and China is investing. We are unable to invest, we are not producing computers, we are not producing phones, we are not producing software, but we are regulating best. There are two regulations today. Putin reminds me of the situation in Russia. Putin’s dictatorship bans TikTok, and w

Dear President. Yes, honourable Members of the European Parliament, it is really interesting when this complaint, not for the first time on the Lithuanian side, comes from the Liberals and Conservatives in their country. In 2022, the Lithuanian National Cyber Security Centre under the Ministry of National Defence approved recommendations on the security of the Cyber Centre of Registers. He propose

I want to ask you, do you not think that the genderist ideology that you promote, where you talk about 107 genders and vaccinate children in the head, is not more harmful than social networks?

Mr President, honourable Members. One of the biggest problems in the European Union is uncontrolled immigration. There are currently more than 62 million immigrants in the European Union and I cannot agree with the left that an immigrant who comes here does not have to respect our laws, does not have to comply with them, and a large proportion, although it seems that the number is still less than
