What Pierre spoke about.

Madam President, 49 is the number of meetings declared by the Commission with the GAFAMs since the beginning of the year; 49, that is, a meeting every two days. The Commission has had 49 occasions to say that Europe is not a digital colony of the United States, that neither Trump, Apple, Google, Meta, OpenAI and others are our masters. But no: For the time being, the Commission has not clarified a

Madam President, twelve minutes: That's how long it takes a teenager on TikTok to see videos about depression, self-harm or suicide. Our children are facing the worst and some would like to let it happen. Based on an uninterrupted stream of extreme content, with addictive design, aggressive marketing, this sordid business allowed TikTok to generate $39 billion in profits in 2024, but mostly result

Mr President, 11 million parcels from Chinese platforms overwhelm Europe every day, without control, transparency or compliance with our rules. The dismal result is the discovery in France that child pornography dolls and weapons are sold over the counter on Shein. These abuses are not simply errors or unfair commercial practices, but a systematic and organized violation of our rules. These platfo

Mr President, Vice-President Séjourné, this own-initiative report by my colleague David Cormand is so daunting that the issues before us are so daunting. A year ago, right here, I denounced the surge of Chinese e-commerce platforms Temu and Shein, leading figures in ultra-fast fashion. These small parcels flood and engorge our postal services and our customs, today pose a major problem for our con

Mr President, Vice-President Séjourné, public procurement accounts for almost 15% of the European Union's GDP, or EUR 2 trillion per year. Better framed, better framed, they are a huge asset to revive the European economy and especially our sovereignty. In the face of the trade war waged by Donald Trump, we must seize it and make it a weapon in our political response. Today, the criteria for award

Mr President, Commissioner, sending a package from Beijing to Strasbourg is cheaper than franking a postcard to write in one's own country. In 2024, 4.6 billion packages shipped by Temu, Shein or AliExpress entered Europe: That's a 300% increase in four years. These products are produced at a loss and then shipped through government subsidies. Their producers are destroying the planet and also pra

You talk about freedom of expression and censorship, but are you relaying conspiracy theories, as Mr Musk did in October on his X account, sharing fake press articles permanently, claiming without evidence that the media is carrying out propaganda operations, wanting to mix artificial intelligence videos to disqualify candidates (as Mr Musk did during the period of the US presidential elections),

Mr President, Commissioner, our democracies are under attack. They're under attack, and we're not fighting back. For hours, we have heard in this Chamber the extreme right taking turns at this desk to say that freedom of expression is under attack. Well, I'm alerting us: when the far right denounces an attack on freedom of expression, the reality is that the far right prefers to defend foreign int

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in order to avoid a birthday or a Christmas without gifts, parents buy toys at low prices on Chinese websites. How can you blame them when the end of the month has become so difficult? Yet it is a poisoned gift, because these toys are certainly cheap, but most likely toxic. According to laboratory tests, almost 80% of them are dangerous. In addition to these tox

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, one in two young Europeans is threatened by depression. While it is imperative to strengthen the resources allocated to social support structures and psychiatric medicine, this is not just a mess to correct. We must face up to what this evil says about the state of our modern societies. Far from mere clichés or miracle recipes of stereotyped well-b

Mr President, Commissioner, I was hoping to have an exchange of views on the role of platforms, disinformation and their impact on our democracies. The challenges posed by artificial intelligence, the deregulation of platforms and the opacity of algorithms must lead us to act faster. But since yesterday, I've been worried. Yeah, I'm worried. Where is Mr. Breton? Ursula von der Leyen, helped by Emm
