Ongoing hearings under Article 7(1) TEU regarding Poland and Hungary (debate)

Madam President, Mr Commissioner, dear colleagues, the trouble with authoritarian politics is that without pushback, it becomes ever more aggressive and dangerous. The European Union has learned this the hard way with Putin. But it seems to me that we haven’t really learned this lesson when it comes to our own values and rule of law in Europe. We now have a Member State government that has stifled…

The situation of marginalised Roma communities in the EU (debate)

Mr President, according to the statistics of the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights, around 80% of Roma in Europe live in total poverty, in disastrous conditions, often without access to drinking water, medical care or education. And the poor social situation often at the level of developing countries is, of course, exacerbated by the fact that this largest national minority in the European Union li…

Increasing repression in Russia, including the case of Alexey Navalny

Mr President, Alexei Navalny is a symbol of freedom in Russia today because he stood up to Vladimir Putin with his candidacy for president and his fight against corruption. Ukraine has also become a symbol of freedom. She bravely confronted Putin and his bloody war with the active defiance of her people and her army. Vladimir Putin hates freedom from his soul, fearing it perhaps more than NATO fig…

Madam President, it took the Commission 459 days to trigger the conditionality mechanism against Hungary. And let’s be honest about the reasons behind this long—awaited decision: it was never about the ECJ ruling or the Commission’s guidelines, nor some recent transgressions in Hungary, because these have been documented for over a decade; it is about the massive toxic influence of one non-democra…

Cooperation and similarities between the Putin regime and extreme right and separatist movements in Europe (topical debate)

Madam President, let us no longer cover our eyes. Vladimir Putin is directing the dismantling of democracy in our countries directly from the Kremlin, and this is no longer about circumstantial evidence or suspicious connections or fictitious looking loans to far-right politicians. The spies that Vladimir Putin installed across Europe have long and systematically subverted European democracy. In m…
