Interim report on the proposal for a mid-term revision of the Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027 (debate)

Watch

There is a revision of the finances, because we are standing in front of the wall. EU leaders cooperated with Putin's Russia, Poland warned about this. And he invaded Ukraine and devastated the European Union, ridiculing its leaders. Everything in the EU was supposed to be ambitious, but it was not real. Stories about the energy transition of the economy were in ruins. Climate policy is ruining th…

Rising precariousness in Europe including the need for aid to the most deprived (debate)

Watch

You come from the Liberal Party, a very influential party in the European Union. I'd like to hear your opinion. My question is this: In June this year, an article appeared in Brussels, in a think tank, in which one of the professors says that the climate policy pursued by the European Union is, first of all, very expensive and leads to switching off the lights, to a lack of heat, to a lack of powe…

Opening of negotiations of an agreement with the United States of America on strengthening international supply chains of critical minerals (debate)

Watch

Mr President, thank you very much. A very interesting deal. I believe that the modernity of the European Union, of Europe, can be preserved precisely thanks to good relations with the United States. We all need this very much. We need to learn from the misguided policies that the European Commission, the European leaders, have carried out in recent years in linking the Union with Russia – a monstr…

Ukrainian grain exports after Russia’s exit from the Black Sea Grain Initiative (debate)

Watch

Thank you very much for agreeing to accept the question. I assess you as a good expert on the European market, as well as on Polish affairs, and I would like to ask briefly: Do you understand the situation of Polish farmers and that the food security we are talking about in Poland can be disrupted by smugglers, by those people who illegally import food into Poland, by speculators, by all those who…

European Defence Industry Reinforcement through common Procurement Act (EDIRPA) (debate)

Watch

I listened very carefully to your comments and you said that there are many social issues to be solved in the European Union at the moment. Did you think that this war that is going on in Ukraine is not about society, it is not about children, it is not about mothers, families, refugees? Do you not understand this, just that this war is also a social issue? And this is also a war that is taking pl…

The need for EU action on search and rescue in the Mediterranean (debate)

Watch

I have a short question for you because you have proposed a solution, namely the creation of this European rescue mission. This is an interesting proposition, only the question for today is this: how to finance such a mission in a situation where the budget of the European Union in the Multiannual Financial Framework for 7 years already lacks money? Commissioner Hahn proposes that Member States co…

Nature restoration (debate)

Watch

We are aware that at the moment companies are fleeing from the European Union to China, to the United States, to the United Kingdom. There they build their campuses, because the tax burden is very high. The solution we are discussing today may benefit the unemployed in the area of agriculture and forestry. These data are already there, and those exclusions that will be, will cause an increase in t…

–I have a question for you. Because on June 23 this year Greta Thunberg deleted her entry from five years ago, that on June 23 this year there will be annihilation of humanity. She deleted that entry. Do you not think about everything that is said about this climate package, also in light of the fact that we already have information from the Committee on Budgets that next year, 2024, the election …

The water crisis in Europe (debate)

Watch

In principle, I agree with your statement completely, but I did not have a suggestion of an idea from your side. You are a member of the largest political group in the European Parliament. This group has a powerful influence on what happens to EU money, to the budget of the European Union. The revision of the Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF), the budget of the European Union, is currently und…

Make Europe the place to invest (debate)

I have a question for you because last week in the Committee on Budgets of the European Parliament there were guests from the Bundestag, German parliamentarians and they talked about the huge cost of living in Germany and that it is only now that the average German citizen, as he looks at the electricity bill, gas bill, energy bill, finds out how difficult Germany and the German industry have been…

Preparation of the European Council meeting of 29-30 June 2023, in particular in the light of recent steps towards concluding the Migration Pact (debate)

You mentioned Poland as the country that washes its hands of refugees. I would like to ask you if you are aware that during the war in Ukraine 12 and a half million refugees from Ukraine - mothers and children - came to Poland? Do you know about this? And you brazenly accuse Poland of rejecting the issue of refugees. That's not the case. Poland and all Poles, and not only Poles, beautifully help m…

Situation in Nicaragua (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Very interesting discussion, very interesting conclusions, situations. On the other hand, I look at the left side of this room and I am very surprised that it is applauding in some situations when we talk about the fact that in Nicaragua all opponents of the current president, who tried to compete with him, are in prison. Many journalists, almost all journalists …

Thank you very much for this very interesting discussion and I am impressed by the detail of many questions. However, my question with such a request, because probably the answer will be difficult, is why, despite the fact that Charles Michel as the head of the European Council negotiated between Armenia and Azerbaijan, the agreement between these countries was concluded with knowledge, or even in…

Social and economic costs of climate change in light of the floods in Emilia Romagna, Marche and Toscana and the urgent need for European solidarity (debate)

Watch

I have this question because I agree with you that this solidarity fund is simply too small and the bureaucracy is too slow in disaster situations. The European Union loses its good reputation. What about such catastrophic, dramatic situations? We now have a review of the Multiannual Financial Framework. Don't you think that when discussing these various transfers, we should simply increase this f…

Threat to democracy and the rule of law in Poland, in particular through the creation of an investigative committee (debate)

Watch

Mr President, thank you very much. I wanted to approach this discussion with all seriousness and that is why I will quote the appeal that the U.S. State Department issued yesterday. Namely, the call to clarify whether these provisions will not prevent voters from voting for the candidates of their choice. This is a very good call, because it is a serious institution. We're talking about the U.S. S…

Update of the anti-corruption legislative framework (debate)

Watch

Mr President, thank you very much. During this debate, I heard once again that in Spain the penalties for corruption have been reduced, because thanks to this, the socialist government and socialist courts can release corrupt socialist colleagues. In France, the president passes laws bypassing the French parliament, and police beat up protesters on the street. And that's good. In Spain, France, th…

Moreover, they themselves admitted that they used free hotels. I would like to hear your opinion on this. What do you think of that?…

Impact on the 2024 EU budget of increasing European Union Recovery Instrument borrowing costs - Own resources: a new start for EU finances, a new start for Europe (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Whatever we say, we have a very difficult situation. Well, the plans were that the cost of servicing the loan will be 1 billion, and it turns out that it will be 2.36 billion euros. This is 100% more than planned. Of course, the forecasts were in 2020, we are talking about 2023. There are many indications that this cost will increase in 2024, and in the following…

Indeed, we are talking about transformation here all the time in Parliament, and from time to time we have very large market deformations of the European Union – war, COVID, etc. These are all things that the EU needs to respond to. Your country, Romania, and mine, Poland, are affected by the influx of grain from Ukraine. How do you …

Guidelines for the 2024 budget - Section III (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. There is no doubt that the 2024 budget is another, second budget related to the war that is ongoing in Ukraine and concerns the European Union. We believe that this war issue should have its reference in the budget and it has it. It is important that we note these references in the budget, although we know and see that there are certain expenses in the budget, wh…
