Escalation of Houthi attacks and implications for regional security (debate)
I'm totally with you. I'm also a bit stuck in the past when this system of blue helmets still existed. And let's face it, it never worked 100 percent. And there really are enough people too basically He was murdered under the nose of the blue helmets. But I think the idea itself is pretty good. And what would you think if perhaps they were dark blue helmets in the future, peacekeepers provided by
Escalation of Houthi attacks and implications for regional security (debate)
(Start of speech with microphone switched off) ... You already knew that, Mrs. Colleague, how you looked at me. You're absolutely right. People are suffering in Yemen and elsewhere. And it is not their war. It is in the end, you may call it oligarchs or other types of rulers who are waging this war. At the same time, diplomacy often fails as long as the armed conflicts continue. In your opinion, w
Escalation of Houthi attacks and implications for regional security (debate)
Yes, Mr Colleague, you mentioned autonomy and also possible partnerships with the Gulf States. I am completely with you in terms of autonomy. So shouldn't we focus above all on those areas of energy that we can produce here in Europe? Above all, the renewable energies – water, wind, electricity – so that one day we won't have to import anything at all and we won't be dependent on any energy suppli
Escalation of Houthi attacks and implications for regional security (debate)
Thank you, Mr. Colleague, for accepting the blue card. Now that we have resolved this crisis, by military means, by diplomatic means, what do you think would be the long-term lesson we should draw from it, especially in terms of our energy security?
Question Time (Commission) - Shaping the future of EU competition policy: application of EU competition law and the upcoming revision of the Merger Guidelines
Commissioner, perhaps in German? I would be interested – I believe what we are doing here, what the Commission is asking for here, is very important, it is crucial for the future of the single market, it is also crucial for the strategic autonomy of the European Union. At the same time, we are in a very technical field. That is why I would like to know what measures the Commission is taking to com
EU–UK summit: renewed ambition for a closer partnership (debate)
Madam Vice-President, Thank you for accepting the blue card. Now the British are a very proud people or several very proud peoples. And there are some who say that we should not interfere in the debate, that we should not make them feel that we are taking the decision away from them, because in the end we endanger the way back into the European family. What do you think is the best strategic appro
EU–UK summit: renewed ambition for a closer partnership (debate)
Madam President, dear people of Europe, the safety of the world requires a new unity in Europe, because in this stormy times, Europeans must stand together as a movement of peoples. Our destiny is in Europe as part of the community. We can't escape it. Sometimes we tried, but we can't. British students, German entrepreneurs, French workers – we all face the same challenges. Our problems don't stop
EU–UK summit: renewed ambition for a closer partnership (debate)
Madam colleague, thank you for accepting the blue card. They talked about Gibraltar and about Ceuta. Aren't these actually both examples that we should leave behind any disputes about tiny territories that are nothing more than remnants of colonial politics? Does it really help us as Europeans to fight among us Europeans for any small rocks somewhere on the edge of this continent? Or should we not
Escalation of Russian strikes in the EU, particularly on Black Sea shipping, threatening human life, regional stability and food security (debate)
Madam President, Madam Commissioner, sometimes I believe that if you walked outside of this Parliament and there was one man beating up another man, and you came to help this beaten man, people would accuse you of steering violence. I think it is very clear by now what Russia is doing. Russia is waging a campaign of hybrid war that more and more and more is going towards the border of actual war –
Escalation of Russian strikes in the EU, particularly on Black Sea shipping, threatening human life, regional stability and food security (debate)
(In response to comments from Mr Braun) Now it's my time to speak, maybe you shut your mouth. Madam President, before I give my second reply, I would like to make a personal statement in accordance with the Rules of Procedure, which takes precedence above any other proceedings. Mr Braun, I'm a well-mannered person; I try to be. And so I ask you very politely to never, never hint again at the fact
Escalation of Russian strikes in the EU, particularly on Black Sea shipping, threatening human life, regional stability and food security (debate)
English for you, sir. Thank you very much that you have accepted my blue card; I have two questions for you. The first question is: how many buzzwords do you think you can fit into one speech? And the second question is: are you aware that recently in the Sahel region that you were describing, there were incidents of Russian mercenary soldiers using swastika symbols, even using chopped-off limbs o
France, Italy and Belgium: Latest anti-democratic violence by radical far-left groups, implications on public order and the legitimate right to protest (debate)
Madam President, dear people of Europe, I will surprise you now. I will only speak about what I saw with my own eyes. I saw a mayor stepping between protesters and police, preventing violence. I saw young demonstrators clearing the street for an ambulance. I saw a demonstration turned into a festival protected by the police. But now, what I don't see – not in France, not in Italy, not in Belgium,
France, Italy and Belgium: Latest anti-democratic violence by radical far-left groups, implications on public order and the legitimate right to protest (debate)
Thank you, Madam, for accepting the blue card. I'd like to go back a few years, given what you said, before everything that's happening here just happened. What do you think could have been done at that time to listen to the youth and to look after the interests of the youth? Could that have prevented the current situation?
Cohesion policy – the driving force in implementing the EU agenda for cities (short presentation)
Madam President, I'll take that as a hanger. Ladies and gentlemen, I find it somewhat frightening that if we have a debate on such an issue, then obviously the interest among us MEPs is so low that, apart from the people who Catch the eye and no one comes to the debate with the rapporteur. Cohesion policy, as the title rightly says, is the decisive factor in implementing the EU agenda. I think we
Cohesion policy – the driving force in implementing the EU agenda for cities (short presentation)
Thank you very much, Madam President. I would also like to congratulate you on the flexible conduct of the meeting. I would have a question that you might be able to answer: Why was there no list of speakers in this debate? You don't know either.
Simplification of waste legislation (joint debate)
Mr President, I would like to do a personal statement in accordance with the Rules of Procedure, which say that a personal statement can be made if there is a statement of fact that is wrong about the Member, or an opinion is attributed to the Member that this Member does not possess. Mr Terheș, you called us hypocritical. You pointed also at me. I want to tell you two things. First of all, not ev
Suspending the application of the rules on extended producer responsibility for waste, waste electrical and electronical equipment and single use plastic waste (Omnibus VIII on environmental legislation) - Suspending the application of the rules on extended producer responsibility for batteries and waste batteries and packaging and packaging waste (Omnibus VIII on environmental legislation)
Ukraine. To admit as many. Admit. Alternative. Financial. Aid. Tasmania. Ukraine. Merci beaucoup. Mississippi. Mr.. Cadillac. SEC. Mississippi. I think, dear colleague, you are mistaken. I think if we change our course, then there will be no Ukraine anymore. And so I ask you, and I am very sorry to put it on this topic in this debate, because I know it's not what this debate is about. But I ask yo
Suspending the application of the rules on extended producer responsibility for waste, waste electrical and electronical equipment and single use plastic waste (Omnibus VIII on environmental legislation) - Suspending the application of the rules on extended producer responsibility for batteries and waste batteries and packaging and packaging waste (Omnibus VIII on environmental legislation)
Many of Europe's near to now European auto activists are. Now in Ukraine? Yes. Mr. Cadillac? Yes. Mr. shipper, want to. Okay. Mr. shipper. Thank you, dear colleague, for accepting the blue card. You said in your speech about this very unconnected topic that we have ideological blindness in regards to Ukraine. I would like to know what you are talking about. Ano. Ukraine. Legislative. Or private? I
Amendments to the Critical Raw Materials Act
Mr President, dear people of Europe! I would like to refer to two things that colleagues have said here in this debate: One of our colleagues has said that each country in Europe should mine its own critical raw materials and that they should only be used in its own country. And for me, this is the most short-sighted and anti-European attitude I can ever imagine. If the dependence we are in as a c
Amendments to the Critical Raw Materials Act
I'll go on with the devil's lawyer. Of course, you could say now that we have strategic dependencies, every child knows that.
Amendments to the Critical Raw Materials Act
Thank you, Mr. Colleague, for accepting the blue card. Now there are some people who would say: Why do we need another EU centre? Why another EU authority? Why another bureaucratic monster – I'm not saying it myself. But I wanted to ask you what you have to say about it.
The upcoming EU anti-corruption strategy (B10-0423/2026)
Mr President, dear colleagues, corruption is one of the most prevalent issues in our Union today. It is affecting citizens as well as businesses and it costs the European Union almost 6 % of its GDP every year. It is high time we fight back and update our anti‑corruption framework. We need to focus not only on reaction but prevention. And contrary to what some may believe, NGOs are not the issue.
The 2026 undemocratic elections to the Russian State Duma and its implications on civil society (RC-B10-0441/2026, B10-0439/2026, B10-0441/2026, B10-0444/2026, B10-0445/2026, B10-0446/2026, B10-0449/2026)
Mr President, dear colleagues, democracy depends on free elections, political pluralism, independent media and a strong civil society. The 2026 Russian State Duma elections took place in an increasingly restrictive environment, with opposition forces excluded, independent information limited and no OSCE observation. We must also reject the organisation of so-called elections in the temporarily occ
The 2026 undemocratic elections to the Russian State Duma and its implications on civil society (RC-B10-0441/2026, B10-0439/2026, B10-0441/2026, B10-0444/2026, B10-0445/2026, B10-0446/2026, B10-0449/2026)
Mr President, I base my point of order on the Rules of Procedure, which say that the proceedings in this House, the acting of the Members, should be based on mutual respect, and I would like to point out that, while you have all the right to stop me, if you think that my behaviour is against the Rules of Procedure – I don't contest that – and while I accept that in your translation, there might be
