EU Action Plan against Trafficking in Cultural Goods (debate)

Mr President, I see your slightly bored face, it's understandable. We have gathered 13 brave MEPs for this epic debate, but it is still important and important because the theft of cultural goods really continues in Europe. You have countries like North Korea, sorry North Macedonia, where the theft of cultural heritage continues, where the forgery of this cultural heritage continues and it is pres…

IPCC report on Climate Change: a call for urgent additional action (debate)

Mr. President, I'm listening to you, colleagues, and I'm wondering a little bit. I wonder, because I don't understand, are you talking about this economy, are you talking about this continent, are you talking about the jobs of the people who elect you and pay your taxes? Yes, urgent action is needed and it is needed to protect economies from your green utopia and green religion. Most recently, abs…

Dieselgate: suspected widespread use of defeat devices in cars to reduce effectiveness of pollution control systems (debate)

Madam President, I did not understand very much the example of a drunk customer throwing up in a taxi, but there may be such cases, I do not know. What I do know, however, is that between 2000 and 2015, many people recommended diesel cars and people in Europe bought diesel cars because they were advertised as greener, more efficient and more efficient. Now, however, it turns out that this was not …

Revision of the EU Emissions Trading System for aviation (A9-0155/2022 - Sunčana Glavak)

on behalf of the ALDE Group. - Madam President, I again voted with conviction against this report, as well as against the previous ones, for one simple reason. This is again a bureaucratic redistribution of funds, this is the imposition of a tax on entrepreneurship, this is an air tax, this is a violent destruction of an economy that works. The aviation industry needs development, not brakes to be…

Revision of the EU Emissions Trading System (A9-0162/2022 - Peter Liese)

Member of the Commission. - Madam President, I voted strongly against the report on the revision of the European Union's greenhouse gas emissions trading system, mainly because it is expanding its scope, including buildings and transport. Yes, there is a delay mechanism, the so-called emergency brake, but it only works for one year. It is to say that after this one year, the factors have not chang…

Madam President, the main and main military-political defence alliance in the northern hemisphere is the North Atlantic Treaty, known as NATO.

Madam President, to be honest, this did not happen in this House during this conversation. We have to say that there is not a very big relationship between the European Union and Iraq, simply because such a country has not and will not have for a long time.
