Ongoing persecution of Christians in Nigeria, notably the Kawel village massacre

Look, I thank you because you are the only left-wing representative in this House today to follow the debate – ah, no, you are two, excuse me very much – two left-wing representatives to follow this debate and so this is very honourable to you. But do you think this is enough? That is, I believe that by now Christianophobia is no longer just in Nigeria, my dear ones. Christianophobia is spreading …

Ongoing persecution of Christians in Nigeria, notably the Kawel village massacre

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, what is happening in Nigeria cannot be dismissed as a simple tribal conflict: It is an insane persecution of Christians. And the numbers are terrible: 3,490 Christians killed in a year for faith-related reasons, meaning that nearly three out of four Christians killed in the world were killed in Nigeria. Villages destroyed, churches attacked, families massacred, …

Recent violent and fatal attacks in Italy and Denmark and their implications for public security in Europe (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, how many more victims will be needed before Europe finds the courage to look reality in the eye? How many more? In Milan, a 55-year-old man was stabbed over 20 times while having breakfast with his father. The assailant, a young man born in Italy to Gambian parents, said after the arrest: “I had fun. As soon as I get out, I'll do it again. In Sweden, a 32-year-o…

Recruitment of children by organised crime (debate)

Ma'am, I think I'll answer you in Italian, because I want all my compatriots to understand what you're saying here. In Italy, we are absolutely open, we were also too open to those who came from the other side of the world and to those who really escaped from wars. But most of these criminals don't come from countries at war, they don't come from places where they run away, where human rights are …

Recruitment of children by organised crime (debate)

I think European people don't want more criminals in Europe, because we don't know their family. And if they come here and they are alone, maybe their family doesn't care or their family is not welcome here, I think. We have to control who comes here. And the control should be in their origin country.…

Recruitment of children by organised crime (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, according to Europol, children account for 70% of the criminal market. But there's an elephant in the room that pretends not to see: Most of these children used by the Mafia are unaccompanied foreign minors. Who am I really? Are they really the age they say they are? European age verification rules are inadequate and should be changed. They are largely foreig…

Political repression and humanitarian situation in Cuba (debate)

It amazes me that those in this Parliament who claim that sanctions are an effective instrument do not want to sanction a regime, a regime that starves its people. But do you hear Cubans, all over Europe – those who have the freedom to speak, all over the free world – calling for freedom, that freedom that even today, after so many years of real communism, you continue to deny? You're complicit. B…
