What Dario spoke about.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the crisis of the war in Ukraine and the Black Sea is leading to a real economic emergency on our continent, including food security, linked to the plight of our farmers throughout the world. In Italy, in my country, a young man, Michele, olive grower in Puglia, decided to work on his land, but he had to take to the streets with thousands of Italian farmers t

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, a few days ago, near Florence, my city, a 45-year-old woman, Lorraine, was brutally killed by her former partner, who threw her off a motorway viaduct. It is the number 34 femicide in Italy, where 86% of the murders of women take place at the hands of a partner or family member. And in Europe, 19 out of 27 states consistently report data on femicides. The oth

Mr President, colleagues, thank you, dear rapporteur Sánchez Amor. When this report was adopted, we denounced the arrest of Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu and the removal of 28 elected mayors. Today it's worse: recently, a court in Ankara annulled the CHP Congress and removed its leader, Özgür Özel. They did not strike down one man, they decapitated an entire opposition party. And what do we do? We adopt st

Mr Borrás Pabón, you said that this plan comes late and is of no use. I believe, on the contrary, that it is a good basis with which to work and, rather than rejecting instruments with which to try to deal with the emergency, we should make concrete proposals. I have not heard any concrete proposals from you, but in particular I ask you: Right-wing forces criticise the CBAM because they prefer to

Madam President, Commissioner Hansen, ladies and gentlemen, this action plan on fertilisers which the Commission is presenting must mark a real paradigm shift. Fertilizers are not just any commodity: They are a strategic input for food security and strategic autonomy, and we cannot remember that only in crises. In 2024, the European Union imported two million tonnes of ammonia and almost six milli

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, at this moment we are living in a war that we did not want and, however, we have to pay the bill: in a few hours, the price of gas and the praetorium of oil has reached levels not seen since the pandemic and markets are trembling. Europe cannot always prevent the wars of others and, unfortunately, it is not doing so now. But you can and should stop

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I wish the President all the best for this Cypriot Presidency of the European Semester, which is full of challenges, dangers and threats. We never imagined, until recently, that the main economic and political threat would come from the United States of America, led by Donald Trump. A threat to which we can no longer respond with sentences of circumstance. We

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, agricultural programmes are a central part of the European budget. For 2026, as socialists and democrats, we have focused on generational renewal, which is a matter of survival for European agriculture. Today in too many regions the average age of farmers exceeds 57 years and every young person who would like to take their place faces enormous o

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the attack on the car of journalist Sigfrido Ranucci has shocked us all and shows that those who want to limit information today feel stronger, to the point of using violence. In Western Europe, Italy is now only 49th in terms of press freedom, according to Reporters Without Borders: The worst result. The report He denounces mafia threats, extremis

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, if we really want the CAP to remain at the service of farmers, we must give a concrete answer to the problem of simplification. Today we risk spending more time in bureaucracy than in the fields. Reducing complex procedures, speeding up payments, making rules clearer and more uniform between Member States does not mean having less effective control

It was to better clarify our concern about possible cuts to the multiannual budget for agricultural policies, a concern that we know we share with the Commissioner, because, without resources, the viability of our farmers will be even more at risk, food security will be even more at risk, the development of European regional areas will be even more at risk. Therefore, we strongly say that we will

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, if there were a 15% cut to the common agricultural policy, we would have -217 billion euros compared to... (The speaker shows the assembly a sign with figures)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, fellow rapporteur, Commissioner, we have a complex and invisible network in Europe, over 11 million kilometres long, connecting 266 million households and businesses across the European Union. We have an epochal challenge: make this network climate neutral by 2050. So well the plan for affordable energy and well, for 2026, the Grid Package to accelerate a mor

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, without an appropriate multiannual financial framework, the European Union will not be able to face any of the major challenges it faces: I think about tariffs, I think about the economic crisis, I think about international competition. That is why we need financial and budgetary instruments that enable Europe to play a leading role in the world. W

Madam President, Commissioner, last Saturday I attended a huge rally in Istanbul, where more than 2 million citizens demonstrated peacefully against the arrest of Mayor İmamoğlu and another 1 400 people. On Friday, we met the leaders of the CHP party with a delegation of the European Socialist Party to stand for democracy in Türkiye, but the Minister of Justice refused our visit to the mayor in pr

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, in these 20 years we have lost 37% of our farmers and 12% of our profits. Commissioner, the work of the vision is an excellent starting point. There are, however, many issues that we need to address, starting with resources: Without adequate resources, we will not have a vision Nor will we have a common agricultural policy. That's why we say "no" to any cuts in

(IT) Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, there is no doubt that the new geopolitical framework arising from the American elections and the ever-increasing Chinese influence on South America require Europe to change its pattern. We must strengthen our commitment on all international markets, play a commercial leadership. Europe thrives on exports: 30% of the GDP of our continent is li

I will speak in Italian. Mr Pabón, you are rightly concerned about the destruction of agriculture. So why doesn't he say anything about the risk of tariffs coming from the American government and Trump on European products, such as agri-food products, such as wine, such as olive oil? And when that happens, will you be against Spanish farmers or Trump? He was in Madrid saying that Trump is his lead

Mr President, Mr Vice-President, we are facing a new protectionist policy by US President Trump, supported by the right wingers in this Chamber. Instead, we must respond as protagonists by strengthening multilateralism and opening Europe to new markets. This is why the document on competitiveness is important. But in many aspects it is still incomplete and generic. The reference to the Draghi and

Mr de la Pisa Carrión, you speak of freedom, autonomy and opportunity. But where is the freedom of the European Patriots who have become American Patriots? Where is the freedom and autonomy when you accept the imposition of a concentration of economic and political power by President Trump and financier Musk? Where is freedom if you want to defend workers and citizens, but you are against any incr
