What Bruno spoke about.

I think we all mourn the memory of Daphne, but you have been mentioning corruption and trying to correlate it. It's funny because when we vote for more transparency on the Panama Papers, your group votes against. When we vote, for example, on having a clear traffic of flows on offshore accounts, your group votes against. Then you bring all the countries that you don't like: you brought Portugal; y

Madam, we completely agree on condemning violence. But let me speak of a violence that is usually forgotten: silent violence. Silent violence about parents for whom to pay rent and give something to their children is unbearable at the end of the month. The silent violence about a generation that has to think about how many lives it will have to work in order to buy a house. Silent violence in a co

Madam President, Prime Minister, welcome to the European Parliament, and know straight away that the Socialist Members will be by your side so that Portugal does not have EUR 0.01 less in the next Community framework. But defending cohesion requires more than good intentions, it requires leadership. In the negotiation of the previous framework, António Costa toured the European capitals, led a gro

You say that you want to lower the cost for European families, but you vote against taxation of war profits. He says he does not want a Europe dependent on other blocs, but instead of helping European industry, what he does is exactly the opposite, because he proposes Elon Musk for the Sakharov Prize and defends Trump's wars, which make us poorer. My question is very simple, because it says that i

Mr President, I am not going to nationalise the issue here, as the PSD has done in the past with PS MEPs, I am going to Europeanise it. He talked about the civil protection mechanism and we are together, not only in that action, in that activation and in that where there is help to Member States, but it is that here in this house, in 2023, European legislation against deforestation was passed. In

You have mentioned the Pope, you have mentioned the Socialists and you have mentioned migrants. It couldn't be anywhere else. I want to mention probably two things. The first, Aristides de Sousa Mendes – you could remember this name. A Portuguese that helped thousands of Jews get into a safe harbour not less than a century ago. The second mention is the Pope. You have asked us to agree more with t

On 28 February, the US began Operation Epic Fury and the goals were clear, as you have mentioned: to isolate Iran, prevent nuclear weapon proliferation and free the people. From blaming NATO to Vice President Vance yesterday admitting granting EUR 300 billion to Iran if they signed to long term agreements – the same they already had under Obama's JCPOA – Epic Fury became epic failure: 7 000 killed

You mentioned that the EU is lagging behind, and I have to agree with you. But I also have to remind you that you sit with the sovereigns – the ones that were cheering for Trump at the beginning of this mandate. And you have not even mentioned one of the topics that has been worked on under the Cloud and AI Development Act that has been proposed by the Commission. So instead of sitting and critici

Madam President, Commissioner, absent Council, today the greatest destiny of young Europeans looking for opportunities is not America, not Asia – they are other countries of the European Union itself. This proves something very simple: The European single market is already our greatest strength today. But it also reveals a challenge and a problem: it is that for many of these young people leaving

Madam President, your phone has just vibrated. There, you find a message with an unknown number: is your child with a clear audio. You've run out of battery, you're on your way home, but you can't afford the train. You voluntarily send the amount equivalent to the return ticket to this contact. But this was not his son – he was a sophisticated artificial intelligence agent who had just served the

Madam President, Commissioner, foreign policy is not about extending the red carpet when our partners violate international law for oil reserves. Europe can and must be more than an extra in Donald Trump's wars that threaten European lives. To accept this role would be, in fact, to stop being at the table and become on the menu. For decades, we've become accustomed to strategic comfort: American p

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, Joseph Figueira Martin is a Portuguese and Belgian citizen, a European citizen and a worker in a non-governmental humanitarian aid organisation in the Central African Republic. It was in that country that he was captured, kidnapped, abducted by the Wagner Group mercenaries, the same ones who collaborate with Vladimir Putin, and who handed Joseph

Madam President, High Representative, Speaker, while Donald Trump squanders the political capital of the United States of America with blackmail and threats, the affirmation of our strategic autonomy gains urgency. In a few days, a decisive summit will take place in India. It's not just a bilateral meeting, it's an opportunity to bring two of the world's largest economies and two of the world's la

The honourable Member had two minutes to reply, and I will ask him again: Can you condemn Vladimir Putin's illegal invasion of Ukraine? Can you condemn, or not, Donald Trump's statements about Greenland?

The honourable Member speaks here about everything he wants to talk about and about everything that Europeans do not want to hear. My question could be extensive, but I think it can be succinct and very clear. The leader of his parliamentary bench did not say anything about condemnation, he does not have a word of condemnation for the words of the American president. You are making an intervention
