The state of play of advancing EU-Africa trade and investment relations (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, in 2050, a quarter of the world's population will be African, and that shouldn't be a footnote in the European trade policy. It should give us a strategic steer already now. We need to focus on Africa and we need to create business opportunities together, because that will create prosperity both in Europe and in Africa. We all know that Africa has tremendous wealth i…

Stop gold-plating, relieve SMEs: Member States must implement EU legislation without adding extra bureaucracy (topical debate)
Madam President. Commissioner, Minister, we need to simplify Europe because European entrepreneurs are frustrated today. They are actually doing two jobs: one which they like, meaning they are building their businesses, they are serving their customers and they are creating new jobs. But then there is the other job they are doing: dealing with reporting, with compliance, with documentation and wit…

EU-Mexico (joint debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, I would like to start to congratulate you and the Commission for bringing this agreement forward. I will fully support it and I am actually very impressed by the Commission and the pace with which you now deliver new free trade agreements. It is important to mention also that the trade policy of the European Union is not only about new free trade agreements, it is al…

Question Time (Commission) - State of play on the European Commission’s pledge to reduce the reporting burden, in particular for SMEs
Thank you, Commissioner, yes, I think it is really important that we follow through from this House as well. I was the rapporteur for the first omnibus, and there we actually cut more costs than the Commission did. So we did increase in that sense the cost-cutting for businesses. You say that what you are doing now is more than 'one in, two out', so I would like to ask you, what do you aim for? Is…

Question Time (Commission) - State of play on the European Commission’s pledge to reduce the reporting burden, in particular for SMEs
Commissioner, both you and I agree that European businesses should spend their time on their customers, on innovation and on creating jobs – not on paperwork. I would like to ask you a question on the 'one in, two out' principle, because that is just about that: you deduct two euros for every euro that is added with legislation, which is added on the costs of SMEs, not least. This is, of course, f…

Achieving digital sovereignty and resilience for Europe, in light of recent developments affecting access to advanced AI technologies (debate)
You mentioned open source, and I like open source very much. But I also like closed source or proprietary software. Ultimately, I think it is a business decision that the entrepreneurs – the European entrepreneurs – should take themselves. But why are you pushing so much for incentivising open source? Wouldn't that limit the European businesses to make their choice? And that limitation might actua…

Simplification of the implementation of harmonised rules on artificial intelligence (Digital Omnibus on AI) (debate)
Madam President, well, since I was mentioned, I thought it was good to respond, and we would like to have more debate, so let me respond. I think due to the fact that AI is developing so fast, then that is the proof that it will be impossible to keep up with the legislation, with a horizontal legislation. And that is why I think it is much better, if we have a problem with discrimination, that we …

Simplification of the implementation of harmonised rules on artificial intelligence (Digital Omnibus on AI) (debate)
Madam President, first of all, I would like to congratulate our colleagues who have been working on this file, not least Arba Kokalari and Axel Voss – I have seen how hard you have been working. This is a good step in the right direction. This is about simplification and, of course, that is why I will vote 'yes' to this. But at the same time, I would like to send a clear message to the Commission.…

EU-US trade deal (joint debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, the deal that was struck almost a year ago is not perfect. Let's be honest about that. But this is the best deal we can get at the moment and we urgently need it – businesses urgently need it. This is not about being pro‑Trump or not. This is about being pro‑European businesses and for more stability in the trade relationship that matters to every worker and every consu…

European Citizens’ Initiative ‘Stop destroying videogames’ (debate)
I think you're absolutely right on this, and the thing is that all publishers are not the same. They have different business models. They work differently. That's why, if we do any regulation, we have to take every different company into play. We have this 'think small' principle in the European Union when we do our legislation. That means that we have to cater for not least the smallest ones, and…

European Citizens’ Initiative ‘Stop destroying videogames’ (debate)
Yes, absolutely. That's, I think, what I said as well. We need to have transparency, so that the consumers know what they buy, and in some cases I think that is not very clear today. But at the same time, it is a growing industry that is important for Europe. I think without the publishers, without the developers, there will be no engagement from the consumers. So, we need to have both in mind and…

European Citizens’ Initiative ‘Stop destroying videogames’ (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, dear colleagues, almost 1.3 million people across Europe have signed this initiative, and I think that's a signal we need to take seriously. But taking it seriously also means that we have to ask the right questions. And the right question is not only, how do we protect consumers? And do not take me wrong, because that is one of the important questions. But the right…

High time to deliver on the Single Market, providing certainty and predictability for EU businesses and quality jobs (continuation of debate)
Madam President, thank you very much. In many sectors of the single market, I'm sorry, I'll start over. In very many sectors, the single market is still just principles on paper, but far from the reality of everyday life. In the services sector, there are still more than 5000 protected professional titles and these are regulated differently in different countries. It should be applied for, it shou…

Opportunities and challenges presented by a comprehensive artificial intelligence strategy for EU trade (debate)
Mr President, artificial intelligence will play a significant role in international trade, facilitating the exchange of goods and services across borders and playing a huge role in improving the competitiveness of the European Union. It will simplify customs procedures, automate our administration and help companies navigate different regulatory systems faster and at lower costs. This will particu…

Negative trade-related effects of global overcapacity on the Union steel market (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, Europe's success has always depended on its export opportunities. From coal and steel to today's global leadership in agri-food and manufacturing, openness has made Europe prosperous. And it will remain the path to our success. Turning inward could never be the answer. But when major players refuse to play by the rules and when every available instrument has been exhaus…

Presentation of the Better Regulation and Enforcement Communication (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, businesses around Europe, and not least small and medium-sized businesses, are under a lot of pressure these days. We have tariffs from the west, we have subsidies from the east, we have high energy prices in Europe and we have high regulatory costs and burdens on businesses. And this is, of course, important for the businesses, but this is also important for all the…

Multilateral negotiations in view of the WTO’s 14th Ministerial Conference in Yaoundé, 26 to 29 March 2026 (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, the past year has been historic for global trade. Exactly one year ago, the Trump administration introduced the so‑called reciprocal tariffs, directly challenging the long‑standing rules that underpin the multilateral trading system. For decades, these rules have reduced customs duties between countries and made trade cheaper, creating jobs and growth, and lifting mi…

European Union regulatory fitness and subsidiarity and proportionality – report on Better Law-Making covering 2023 and 2024 (debate)
Madam President, colleagues, thank you to everyone who participated in this debate. And let me do a few reactions on what I heard. First of all, the omnibuses were up. The Commission mentioned that ten omnibuses have been presented so far, reducing the cost for European businesses by EUR 15 billion once they are decided and implemented. And I think that is a very good step. But I also like to say …

Certain corporate sustainability reporting and due diligence requirements (A10-0197/2025 - Jörgen Warborn) (vote)
Madam President, I am speaking on behalf of a united EPP. We made an agreement with S&D and Renew, both on content, but also on the fact that we should have a committee mandate. This committee mandate is important because we need to stick to the timetable – meaning that we go into trilogue already on Friday – so that we can deliver clarity for European businesses. Because, outside this Hemicycle, …
