Mental health in the digital world of work (debate)

Watch

Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, respected citizens, mental health is closely related, according to numerous studies carried out over the past two years, to physical health. Mental health, which is impaired by severe fear, leads to severe illnesses, and in extreme cases, it also leads to a direct cause of death. In Croatia, we have a proven deceased one person from the experience of severe fear. Tw…

The call for a Convention for the revision of the Treaties (debate)

Watch

We all know what unanimous means. Unanimous means: We are all equal, we are all equal. When the majority is decided, then the little ones are never equal. We know that. We have seen this in the example of Yugoslavia, we have seen in the example of the Soviet Union, and this is exactly what should never happen to us. And these proposals are going in that direction.…

The call for a Convention for the revision of the Treaties (debate)

Watch

Citizens of the European Union – that is to say, all of us, whether they are members of political parties, independent representatives, or citizens who do not engage in politics at all, but are members of various associations – have the right to take any initiative and ask the European Commission to act in this regard. So I don't see any problems with that. What we're talking about is a violation …

The call for a Convention for the revision of the Treaties (debate)

Watch

Dear colleagues, respected citizens, the proposed amendments to the Treaty on European Union, which include that now the European Council would no longer take decisions by unanimity but by over-voting, are a profound change in the very being of the European Union. It is necessary to ask the question: Would all countries that are now members of the European Union agree to be members? How many citiz…

Revision of the EU Emissions Trading System - Social Climate Fund - Carbon border adjustment mechanism - Revision of the EU Emissions Trading System for aviation - Notification under the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) (joint debate – Fit for 55 (part 1))

Watch

The Honourable Chairman, Honourable colleagues, Honourable citizens, by proclaiming carbon dioxide and fossil fuels as popular enemies of the countries of the European Union is completely insane. On these fuels we have created a modern civilization and we have the standard we have. Now, imposing enormous new taxes on all producers, which normally emit CO2 in the course of production, will lead to …

The REPowerEU Plan: European solidarity and energy security in face of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, including the recent cuts of gas supply to Poland and Bulgaria (debate)

Watch

The Honourable Chairman, the Honourable Colleagues, the Honourable Citizens, is an incredible lie and hypocrisy that sanctions and bans on the import of Russian oil and gas are sanctions against Russia and a ban on the financing of war. They are indeed facing half a billion citizens of the European Union and millions more of the rest of Europe. If that were true, if it were to prevent the financin…

Election of the Members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage (debate)

Watch

–The Honourable Chair, the Honourable colleagues, the dear citizens of the European Union, when I ran for the European elections two years ago, I believed that the culmination of democracy and respect for rights awaited me. Unfortunately, I know today that's not the case. The electoral system created here is designed for a narrow political cartel that has nothing to do with the citizens of the Eur…

Data Governance Act (debate)

Watch

Dear chairperson, respected colleagues, respected citizens, personal data and family life, the state of health of an individual is of great and personal value. Instead of a complete ban and full protection of personal data, primarily medical data, we now make that same data a commercial commodity. We've completely changed the direction we've taken before. We have accepted the direction of the Unit…

Trans-European energy infrastructure (debate)

Watch

Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, respected citizens, the modern world and the economy cannot exist without a constant supply of energy. Unfortunately, in the past we have witnessed strong oil price manipulations. Now I'm going to read to you how the price of oil has evolved over the past forty years.

Rising energy prices and market manipulation on the gas market (debate)

Watch

Dear Chairman, Honourable colleagues, Honourable citizens, the prices of energy products rarely and almost never correspond to their production price and the price of their distribution. They depend mostly on geopolitics and the wars that have begun. We had almost the same gasoline and diesel prices when oil was $120 per barrel and when it was $40 per barrel. Wars bring enormous profits to one of …

Foreign interference in all democratic processes in the EU (debate)

Watch

Dear colleagues, dear citizens, until two weeks ago I was convinced that the amount of hypocrisy and lies that the mainstream media saturated citizens of Europe and the world during the COVID-19 pandemic is impossible to surpass. However, I was very disappointed. Since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, the amount of lies and false support for Ukraine has been horrific. On the one hand, it is sa…

Harmonised EU approach to travel measures (debate)

Dear Chairman, Dear colleagues, Dear citizens, COVID certificates are one of the stupidest ideas in the history of mankind. In addition to directly leading to the death of a huge number of people around the world as vaccinated people, rather than being tested, spread the virus in hospitals among vulnerable people, on the other hand they brought armies to the streets and to the Member States of the…

The Rule of Law and the consequences of the ECJ ruling (debate)

Dear President, dear colleagues, dear citizens, today we are not talking about the rule of law, but about the terror of loathsome ideologies. Hungary and Poland are called, in which the citizens are mostly traditional values, and they want to be removed, they want to change their power, they want their citizens to accept the derogatory ideologies that, if they had been announced earlier, the Europ…

Dear President, dear colleagues, dear citizens of the European Union, President Macron, given the numerous abolitions and restrictions of civil rights and freedoms in France during the pandemic, I ask you only one thing, which is that while you are presiding over the European Union, you do exactly the opposite of everything you did in France.

Dear Chairman, dear colleagues, dear citizens of the European Union, without employers there are no employees, without employees there are no employers, without both of them there is no capitalism.

Dear Chairman, Honourable colleagues, Honourable citizens, smuggling of economic and all other types of immigrants is the most malign and dangerous part of organized crime in the Western Balkans.

Dear President, dear colleagues, dear citizens, today we are discussing how to vaccinate the whole world. COVID vaccines have brought us an unprecedented side effect in medicine and sociology. A side effect that has not existed in any previous vaccine history. It's a panic fear.

Preparation of the European Council meeting of 21-22 October 2021 (debate)

A pre-condition for the rule of law is an equal approach towards all Member States, with respect for the presidency, with respect for colleagues, with respect for citizens. Today, it is clear that the European Commission does not have the same criteria for all Member States. While only the sovereign governments of Poland and Hungary are called, the puppet government of the Republic of Croatia is f…

The Right to a Healthy Environment (debate)

Dear Chairman, Dear colleagues, Dear citizens, we all agree that the right to a clean environment is a prerequisite for a healthy life for citizens. But what we all don't agree on and what we all have maybe a different view of is how to do it.

The Rule of law crisis in Poland and the primacy of EU law (debate)

Dear Chairman, Dear colleagues, Dear citizens, Poland has always been at the heart of Croatian citizens and we have always shared the same sense of law and justice.

Banking Union - annual report 2020 (debate)

Dear Chairman, the draft report welcomes the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the Eurozone. The main industry of the Republic of Croatia became sending money to Croatian workers and expatriates from abroad.
