The urgent need for an EU strategy on fertilisers to ensure food security in Europe (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Unfortunately, Russia still has many tools to attack Ukraine, Europe and the whole world. Today, this debate is very important, because one of these tools is to trigger, consciously and intentionally, a food crisis. It was Russia that blocked the transport of food and grain from Ukraine for months, fuelling the hunger and malnutrition…

Outcome of the Commission’s review of the 15-point action plan on trade and sustainable development (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. On Monday, there was a very important debate on freedom of religion and the practice of faith. It condemns an important issue of persecution, including of Christians, all over the world. Why am I talking about this? This is because these persecutions occur in countries that are important trading partners of the European Union and with which the European Union has…

Access to water as a human right – the external dimension (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Water is life and the right to access it is a fundamental human right – and here we fully agree. Water resources are relatively small and fragile. However, due to local shortages, today water is an absolutely strategic raw material. Its shortcomings are the main impetus for subsequent humanitarian crises, as well as a key core element of refugee…

The EU's actions in the field of freedom of religion or belief worldwide (debate)

Thank you very much for this debate. I join the call for the appointment of a new plenipotentiary of the High Envoy for Religious Freedoms. It's important. Persecution for the sake of faith is an important and pressing problem in today's world, but it mainly affects Christians as the largest community of believers. According to independent reports, the persecution of Christ's followers in the past…

Madam President, I'm sorry. In my first words, I would like to thank the authors of the resolution very much for having asked for Bishop Roland Álvarez. But this resolution is also a reminder of the fate of many Christians who today are persecuted all over the world. Christians are a religious group that never wants wars. This is a very hardworking, submissive group. It is astonishing that we have…

Situation of fundamental rights in the EU in 2020 and 2021 (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. This report, unfortunately, has been a list of regrets, half-truths for years. It is completely incomplete. It is formulated by a left-wing majority in the European Parliament. It is cleverly called the state of fundamental rights in the European Union. This is another document to justify billions of euros spent in the European Union …

I hope you will also remember this during the abortion debate. The discussion about migration is always full of emotions.
