What Ryszard spoke about.

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. The prominent left-wing writer George Orwell, who once communised and then understood what communism was and converted to freedom and democracy, wrote the book Animal Farm. There he described the governments of pigs, which believe that they are more equal than other animals. I have the impression that George Orwell's book is still rel

Mr President, High Representative, since the October War, the world is gradually confirming the analysis that the Iranian resistance has been telling us for four decades: the Iranian regime is the head of the snake that creates war. The Iranian regime is active part of two main wars that are threatening European peace and tranquillity. They are providing drones and missiles to kill Ukrainians, and

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Mr. High Representative, thank you very much. This debate is certainly listened to attentively in Moscow, because the words of condemnation, verbal sanctions Russia is not afraid. But strikes on the pocket are afraid, because it is an instrument that can actually harm Moscow and Russian imperialism. It must be said very clearly to those who

Mr President, an oral amendment to Amendment 29: ‘underlines that the Parliament should provide the financing of the APA missions in question from the same budget line as the one for EP missions’. Shortly speaking, we cannot discriminate our assistance.

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Representatives of the Court of Auditors! Well, it is not good, as once again for the budget discharge, and so such a technical and financial report adds political matters. Making politics out of everything is the wrong way. To say that it is regrettable that Hungary has been given money is a misunderstanding. It shouldn't be. On othe

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Perhaps it is a pity that our former colleague Alexander Stubb, who was elected president of Finland and who recently, although not much younger than me, took sixth place at the triathlon world championships, is not here with us. This is an example of a healthy lifestyle! However, I think that in this debate we should pay s

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Unfortunately, Commissioner Johansson's colleague has caused great concern in the societies of our European Union, saying that the Union needs four and a half million immigrants a year. Of course, this can be divided into individual countries. My country, Poland, is the 5th largest in the European Union. That's h

Mr President, thank you very much. Commissioner, I'm sorry. I think that this debate must show our unanimity. This is very important because Russia would like a divided Europe. I think this death can and should strengthen our response to this empire of evil. Here Prime Minister Verhofstadt said that the Commission is doing wrong, probably so that the Council is doing wrong, probably so, and I will

Madam President, Commissioner! President from Finland, Commissioner from Finland! I'm sorry, I'm not from Finland, but I'll say "kiitos" at the end. I think this is an important debate because we are talking about a country that is in second, third place when it comes to territory, when it comes to population in Africa. It is a key country for this continent and, at the same time, a country which,

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, I'll get straight to the point. What was far too little in this report? For non-political reasons, there was not enough about Cuba, not enough about Venezuela, not enough about Nicaragua. Well, and there are pros that we were talking about Ukraine. It was good that there was talk of the need to enforce the human rights

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. We, Poles, and our neighbours the Baltics, and not only our neighbours in the north-east, can have bitter satisfaction, because we have been talking about these Russian interferences, including agents, for years. However, we are aware that this does not apply only to one political group or just the Baltic countries, where in each parliamenta

Mr President, thank you very much. Commissioner, I'm sorry. This is an important debate. It is a pity that the President of the European Commission did not persevere to the end. I want to thank you for these important declarations. Words are important. They change reality, but they cost less than deeds. I cannot understand why we, as the Union, are still not really sealing the sanctions regime, wh

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, It must be made very clear – and this may have been lacking – that Serbia is a country in a geopolitical match between us, the West, and Russia. And, of course, there are many Serbs who want to be closer to Moscow than closer to the European Union. Question: What do we say? Will we, as the Union, try to westernise, ‘swe

Dear Mr President, Hungary is a European country with a great history and a determining European nation. Hungarian culture has had a great impact on European culture and our common European traditions. Of course, Hungarians also represent a wide range of political opinions, make free decisions and go their own way, just as Hungarians deserve respect from all nations. However, following the Europea

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, I would prefer, however, that – this is a remark to my previous speaker – the German Members deal with their internal affairs outside this room. We are talking about European solutions, not disputes within Germany. This debate is needed. I think it is important to be clear that some NGOs have been in the past and

Mr President, thank you very much. Vice-President of the Commission, Ladies and Gentlemen, This is a total war for Russia, which is not only about turning industry into war and delivering more than twice as many tanks in a year as the West delivered to Ukraine. This is a total war, also in the area of propaganda, minds and mentalities, since cadet schools and officer schools in Russia have never e

Mr President, thank you very much. Dear Vice-Presidents, Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, It is good that there is this debate, it is good that there are two vice-presidents of the European Commission. In principle, this European economic security strategy needs to be supported, but it is also worth creating a full map of threats and vulnerabilities to our European economic secur

Mr President, thank you very much. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen! It is good that men are speaking in the European Parliament on this issue. And it is good that this issue is something that unites MEPs from different sides of our House. This is an important message to the world. I think that unanimity in this matter, or almost unanimity, is something important, necessary and expect

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. The three countries that are candidates for accession to the European Union, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine, are countries whose territory is occupied by Russia. In Moldova it is Transnistria. Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk are known in Ukraine. It is also known that in Georgia it is Abkhazia and South Ossetia. And the death we are talking about toda

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, If I were to ask how many of you were in Niger, I'm sure a few people would come forward. I was. It is perhaps the poorest, certainly one of the poorest countries in Africa, and perhaps the world, a country that is a dictatorship. But this, of course, does not mean that it must be a poor country, because we know in Africa –

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Secretary of State! Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. I think that we are in agreement in many respects on this issue, although as a historian I would prefer that we also talk about the past, because Russia's full-scale war with Ukraine is also the responsibility of politicians on our side, who for years have preferred to be blind when it comes to Russian imperial

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Yes, we owe Chechens solidarity, especially those who fight for the freedom of their homeland. And they fight for this freedom with those who have a Russian umbrella. But we also owe them because we, as the European Union, have sins of conscience against Chechnya. After all, I recall the situation I was a participant in when the admin

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, When I was a dozen or so years old, 20 years old and in martial law in Poland we fought the communists for the freedom of our country, in distant Afghanistan Massoud was also a legend for us. After 40 years, today I am an MEP here, and Massoud continues to fight, Afghanistan continues to fight. I'm glad his son i

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. I had the honour of being a member of the European Union-Moldova delegation for several years. I have been to Moldova several times, in a country that has historical ties to Poland several centuries ago. I think what is happening there is really a very important geopolitical match between the West and Russia. Moldova deserves our full

You are doing an election campaign and you are doing it at the expense of Poland, because you are doing it in the European Parliament. Voters will see this soon. I think it is precisely on this point that we should thank the Polish government for what it has done for farmers in the last eight years. It is not appropriate for the people who represent us in the European Parliament to campaign in suc
