Madam President, I publicly demand that the EPP Chair, Mr Manfred Weber, immediately and unconditionally expel from the EPP the party led by the Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer. On 8 December 2022, Austria voted to abusively block the entrance of Romania and Bulgaria in Schengen, even though both countries met all the requirements to join this area. We were not and we are not asking for privileg…

Madam President, ‘personal identity or digital identity’ is the question that we all – regular people or elected officials – need to answer in the current rash of global developments. Personal identity is composed of distinctive qualitative qualities like personal beliefs, aspirations and desires that make a human being unique in their relationship with the state and with other human beings. This …

Mr President, dear Commissioner, ‘it is essential, if man is not to be compelled to have recourse, as a last resort, to rebellion against tyranny and oppression, that human rights should be protected by the rule of law’ – this is what the preamble of the 1948 Universal Declaration of Europe of the Human Rights states. Thus, the rule of law is not a goal in itself, but a way to accurately protect t…

Outcome of the first meeting of the European Political Community (debate)

Madam President, dear colleagues, dear guests, after the Second World War in Europe, a group of eight statesmen, mostly Christians, came together and found ways not only how to reconcile themselves with each other, but how to bring peace to prosperity in Europe. To do so, they came up with a European project founded on two pillars: safeguarding the respect of fundamental rights – and that’s how we…

Madam President, colleagues, Serbia is part of Europe, and we must help this country to pursue its goal in being part of the European Union. I was in Serbia a few months ago during the presidential elections, and I talked to many Serbian citizens, as well as with the President of Serbia. Unfortunately, with our position here, we put this country in a situation without escape. On one side, we are p…

Objection pursuant to Rule 111(3): Amending the Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act and the Taxonomy Disclosures Delegated Act (B9-0338/2022)

Madam President, price is set by supply and demand. This is a basic economics and logic lesson taught in Western schools back in the days for a long time. It seems though that Ursula von der Leyen and Frans Timmermans missed this logical lesson. You cannot on one side close down supplies of energy and on the other side increase the demand and expect that the price of energy is going to go down. I …

EU initiatives to address the rising cost of living, including the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights (debate)

Mr President, I say to the Commissioner, and our dear colleagues: the definition of insanity is to do the same thing over and over again expecting different results. We talk now about the increase in cost of living in the European Union, which is just a result of the insane, unsound policies promoted by the European Union since Ursula von der Leyen took office. Ursula’s plan to forcibly change the…

Madam President, I wish to address the Commissioner. Mr Commissioner, the Digital Green Certificate was the first instrument imposed by Ursula von der Leyen that is leading to the Chinafication of Europe and to a digital tyranny.

Mr President, dear colleagues, when Ursula von der Leyen campaigned in this plenary in 2019 to be elected president of the European Commission, she promised a stronger European Union that provides more prosperity for its citizens.

Madam President, in 1991, when the Soviet Union collapsed, Ukraine ended up having, at that time, over 3000 atomic bombs, making Ukraine the third nuclear power in the world. In 1994, Ukraine trusted the guarantees received from Russia, as well as the West, and agreed to denuclearise so it signed the so-called Budapest Memorandum. In exchange for denuclearisation, Russia affirmed in that memorandu…

The EU's role in combating the COVID-19 pandemic: how to vaccinate the world (topical debate)

Madam President, the question in this debate today should have been how to combat COVID-19, not how to vaccinate the world. It’s not the job of the European Parliament nor its duty to vaccinate the whole world. The job of this Parliament is to legislate for the people and to exercise its control over how the Commission is spending European citizens’ money. The problem is that as we’ve seen in the …
