PLSpeech

Stop gold-plating, relieve SMEs: Member States must implement EU legislation without adding extra bureaucracy (topical debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Market fragmentation, which is precisely the result of overregulation, costs our economy hundreds of billions of euros a year. Today, according to experts, there is €713 billion on the table if we put an end to this practice. European law must aim to harmonise rules so that our economies can function smoothly. And let's take a simple example: if the truck can weigh up t

Protecting children’s safety and mental health from the risks posed by social media – our duty to act now (debate)

PLSpeech

High time to deliver on the Single Market, providing certainty and predictability for EU businesses and quality jobs (continuation of debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Today I will tell you what European entrepreneurs, Polish entrepreneurs need from this Chamber. Certainly not debates. Definitely not another declaration. They need a single market that works. More than half of Polish entrepreneurs point to bureaucracy as the biggest barrier. And I will mention only two problems, very important and those for which we have a solution. Po

PLSpeech

Opportunities and challenges presented by a comprehensive artificial intelligence strategy for EU trade (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, We want to win, don't we? Europe wants to win. But there is one specific condition for winning competition with China and America. And I'd like to focus on him today. Artificial intelligence is a critical infrastructure and must be protected as critical infrastructure. It must be protected from hostile takeover by competing powers. Our data

PLSpeech

Europe's response to reduced US military deployments in Europe, particularly at its Eastern flank in the light of the latest US decisions (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. I'm not going to count all the writing lies, but I'm going to say one thing: Our ministers are in Washington now. Tomczyk, Zalewski, who are they dating? With the Trump government, with the State Department, with the War Department. Where is the U.S. General now? In Warsaw. Who's he talking to? With our government. And the president is where? He wanted to take responsib

EU strategy in response to the ongoing Middle East crisis, its implications on energy prices and the availability of fertilizers (joint debate)

PLSpeech

Enforcement of the Digital Markets Act (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Europe's sovereignty is in our hands, digital too. DMA works: Apple – 500 million penalties, Meta – 200 million penalties for treating Europeans as a commodity. And now this review, this report has one goal: enforce faster and more efficiently, without a reduced tariff for anyone. And now to you. Yes, to you, grieve God, right wing. I read your favorite media. Republic

PLSpeech

Tackling barriers to the single market for defence - Flagship European defence projects of common interest

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Today, Europe is in a moment of truth. Our citizens are very clear: they want security, they want a strong Europe – a Europe that can defend them. And we still have 27 defence markets instead of one European defence market. Today, European armies use 18 different types of tanks – the United States – one. 20 different types of fighter aircraft – USA

PLSpeech

Single Market: how to move from an incomplete single market to one market for one Europe (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Europe is suffocating under a pile of paper. And instead of building the future, we continue to fill out forms. Instead of a free market, it is a corked market. And people are angry because they see that Europe has potential, only it blocks it with bureaucracy. And finally, we lose to China and the US, because they use every minute we spend filling out forms. The single

PLQuestion

A new legislative framework for products that is fit for the digital and sustainable transition (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, before we adopt the new rules, we must first focus on enforcing the existing ones. The cost of ineffective enforcement of EU product safety rules is around €11.5 billion per year. Only in relation to rectifiable accidents. Harmful online commercial practices cost EU consumers another nearly €8 billion a year. Therefore, let's first focus on reducing these costs,

PLSpeech

The decision to impose a fine on Google: defending press and media freedom in the EU (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. No one is above the law no matter how powerful he is, how rich he is. This is especially true of tech giants. I welcomed the Commission's decision because it sends a clear signal of our commitment to law enforcement. This decision concerns elementary justice in the European digital economy, the protection of fair competition and freedom of the press, two key pill

PLSpeech

Promoting EU digital rules: protecting European sovereignty (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, We have to be credible. We have to be fast. We have to be smart. Otherwise, we will lose in this race for market dominance of new technologies with America, with China, and maybe with other Asian countries. Europe has the best digital law in the world, but too often we do not use its full power. In the UCPD (Unfair Commercial Practices Directive) w

PLSpeech

Time to complete a fully integrated Single Market: Europe’s key to growth and future prosperity (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Imagine that you want to open a bank account in another country. Well, it's a simple matter, isn't it? Well, not at all. Each country has different procedures, different forms, different fees. The same applies to VAT refunds or bankruptcy procedures. The Single Market was created 30 years ago and this is our biggest European achievement, but it is

PLSpeech

Solidarity with Poland following the deliberate violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Today Poland is fighting on two fronts. On the one hand, Russian drones appear in the European sky, but on the other hand, we are also dealing with great Russian disinformation. We hear here statements about the climate, about coal, about Nord Stream... I mean, really? About the past? In the face of Russian aggression, Poland needs one common effor

ENSpeech

Implementation and streamlining of EU internal market rules to strengthen the single market (debate)

Madam President, dear colleagues, Mr Commissioner, simplifying the rules and fully implementing our legislation concerning the single market is an essential condition for surviving globally and making Europe competitive. Small companies spend too many resources on compliance, on finding information about the rules they need to follow – all at the expense of innovation and productivity. It is not j

PLSpeech

Package travel and linked travel arrangements: make the protection of travellers more effective and simplify and clarify certain aspects (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Holidays are for rest, but what happens if you have to cancel them due to exceptional circumstances, such as a pandemic or war? Thanks to the new directive, it will be possible to opt out of departure in advance without incurring any costs. During the pandemic, the massive cancellation of leave led to huge delays in refunds, but also resulted in a

PLQuestion

State of the Union (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Today, in the face of the threat, we really cannot divide European society and we cannot replicate Russian disinformation. We cannot really allow any relativization of the fact that Russia is the biggest mortal enemy of the whole of Europe and that it really deserves sanctions. This morning, the remains of a Russian drone fell in the Polish village of Czosnówka, 30 kilo

PLSpeech

Circularity requirements for vehicle design and management of end-of-life vehicles (debate)

Ladies and Gentlemen, raising recycling targets cannot be done at all costs, especially when it leads to the creation of new dependencies on strategic rivals such as China. The automotive industry is a pillar of the European economy. It directly employs almost 2.5 million Europeans, including over 200,000 Poles. And that makes my country the third largest employment center in the industry. For Pol

PLSpeech

Product safety and regulatory compliance in e-commerce and non-EU imports (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. 19 billion euros per year. That's how much Europeans spend on products that can poison us, hurt us, destroy our economies. Last year, the European Union received as many as 4.6 billion so-called low-value shipments below EUR 150, of which 91% came from China. In Poland, we have a great, well-known Allegro platform, 25 years of buildin
