What Paulo spoke about.

Madam President, Prime Minister, welcome to Strasbourg, to the European Parliament. We have a maxim and the motto that are essential to the European project. The maxim is ‘leaving no one behind’ and the motto is ‘united in diversity’, and we must use all tools, including financial instruments, to deepen them. That is why the multiannual financial framework, which is at an advanced stage of negotia

Madam President, Minister, Commissioner, the completion of the single market is essential if we are to achieve our objectives as a European Union. In order to have a single market, it is absolutely essential that there is equal competition between the various companies within the European area. What we have seen is the creation of barriers, rather than the elimination of these same difficulties. W

The political group, to which I proudly belong, has taken a very consistent position on this as on other matters. What we cannot defend is a deforestation regime that is not compatible with other dimensions that must be taken into account. I have argued in many circumstances that the concept of sustainability presupposes not only assessing the environmental impacts of economic measures, but also t

I reiterate that the bet on mitigation is crucial, but that does not mean that we should not prepare for the circumstances that are inevitable. Unfortunately, climate change is a reality and its effect on fires, particularly forest fires, is also a reality. And for this, the adaptation and preparation of communities are central. My political group, and the European Commission has done so, is to in

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, there is an inevitable link between climate change, heat waves and fires. This circumstance is becoming less conjunctural and more structural, which explains the permanence of this same sequence. The question is: what to do? There are two very relevant levels of action. First, mitigation: continue to focus on reducing the causes, combating clima

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the single market is a European project and the 28.º scheme is the best tool for achieving it. I am talking about a regime that offers a pragmatic way to overcome the legal fragmentation that continues to limit the growth of European companies, in particular SMEs and SMEs. start‑ups. By enabling an optional, uniform and directly applicable legal

The circumstances are different, honourable Member. What is at stake is a change, an evolution. She prefers immobility, footsteps, maintenance, perseverance in error and the refusal of innovation and change. This is a change and the consequences for

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, imagine a hospital where a doctor is preparing to assist a patient. Suddenly, computer systems stop responding. No, this is not a technical failure. It was a cyber attack. Today, using artificial intelligence, this attack can be prepared, adapted and launched in a few minutes, but the same technology can also detect the threat, contain its spread,

Madam President, Mr Vice-President of the Commission, ladies and gentlemen, the single market is one of the greatest and most important promises of the European project. By ensuring the free movement of people, goods, services and capital, it has created unprecedented opportunities for businesses and citizens, strengthening the competitiveness and cohesion of our European project. But the promise

Madam President, artificial intelligence is profoundly transforming the way we live, work and communicate, but it is also changing the landscape of threats to the security of the European Union. Today, the risks are no longer limited to traditional cyberattacks. AI systems can be used to automate large-scale attacks, manipulate information, create deepfakes highly credible and exploit critical vul

Madam President, the significant increase in fossil fuel prices is having an immediate and notorious systemic impact, contaminating production chains with the ultimate effect of increasing the prices of goods and services. The impact of conjunctural shocks such as this alastra‑se at high speed, and what is systemic can hardly be solved or mitigated by national approaches. That is precise

Mr President, Madam Vice-President of the Commission, Mr President-in-Office of the Council, ladies and gentlemen, Europe is experiencing a context of widespread threat, disrespect for the sovereignty and self-determination of peoples, disregard for secular trade relations, and even dishonesty at that level. It is in this context that we must take on a real challenge to promote internal cohesion,

Madam President, Commissioner, when we talk about deepfakes, we're not just talking about technology or digital rules, we're talking about violence. We are essentially talking about women and children whose images are appropriated without consent and used as tools of humiliation and abuse. This is not a virtual phenomenon, it is violence. Sexual exploitation through deepfakes They are a form of ag

Mr President, Madam Vice-President, I congratulate the European Commission on the proposals presented here today, proposals which bring simplification in the first place. Simplification, because we are talking about better access, lower costs, which greatly facilitates access, essentially for small and medium-sized enterprises. Then it brings predictability, because in this way economic agents kno
