Planned dissolution of key anti-corruption structures in Slovakia and its implications on the Rule of Law (continuation of debate)

Listen, colleagues, especially from those liberal ranks. You come here and try to infiltrate Slovakia in front of the whole of Europe, that it is a mafia state just because it is not you who are in power. Because if you were there, I'm sure everything would be great, everything would be perfect, everything would be the best. The Special Prosecutor's Office in Slovakia is special only because it is…

Jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition of decisions and acceptance of authentic instruments in matters of parenthood and creation of a European Certificate of Parenthood (debate)

Mr President, this EU-wide parental card or the European birth certificate that you are planning to introduce is nothing more than the exploitation of children to push the rainbow agenda. You claim that children have the right to parents and therefore all Member States must recognise homosexual unions entered into in other Member States. That's exactly what you're saying, but not just that. You go…

Proposals of the European Parliament for the amendment of the Treaties (debate)

Mr President, I have read your proposal to change the European Union and I must say: That's pure madness. You write here that you want to abolish the right of veto and unanimity in the vote on key foreign policy and tax issues. This means that it is up to the governing parties in the largest European countries to decide everything. You further write that you want to strengthen immigration policy i…

Effectiveness of the EU sanctions on Russia (debate)

Mr President, when it comes to the effectiveness of sanctions, it must finally be said out loud in the European Union that the European Union's energy sanctions against the Russian Federation are a fatal failure, because they harm Europe more than Russia itself and all those who support them are co-responsible for the inflation and the increase in prices that both ordinary Europeans and ordinary p…

Madam President, you say that Europe must step up rescue operations at sea, because a tragedy has become a tragedy for immigrants.

Ukrainian cereals on the European market (debate)

The Slovak authorities, the Slovak Ministry of Agriculture, first blew up that Ukrainian grain was not present in Slovakia. They then admitted that he was there. They then claimed that there were no toxic pesticides in it. Then they said they were there. Then they claimed that it was not used in mills and baked goods. And then it turned out that eventually the flour was distributed. So yes, even o…

Ukrainian cereals on the European market (debate)

Madam President, Ukrainian grain in Slovakia was full of banned pesticides that cause cancer and mutations in unborn children. So we logically called for a ban on this grain. However, we have received a response from Brussels that Slovakia cannot ban this grain because it violates competition and the free market. In other words, the European Commission has actually told us, I will be vulgar, to sh…
