The case of Rocío San Miguel and General Hernández Da Costa, among other political prisoners in Venezuela

Mr President, today we are thinking of Rocío San Miguel, a great fighter for human rights who was abducted and is unaccounted for at the moment, and General Hernández Da Costa, who has been unjustly imprisoned for no less than six years and who is in absolutely deplorable health conditions. And we have a disqualified one that is María Corina Machado, which means the disqualification of the elections that some intend and intended to be held in Venezuela, and that are going to be completely impossible because elections cannot be held when you are stopping, when you are torturing yourself, when you are murdering yourself and when you are making yourself disappear, as you are doing in Venezuela without stopping. And the Barbados Agreement has been another farce, another farce to continue prolonging the situation, to have sanctions withdrawn and to be able to continue playing with the international community. Mr. Maduro will remain in place as long as he has defenders like Zapatero, like Borrell, as long as he has accomplices like Lula and Petro and so many others. And as long as there are no people to enforce international law and law in your home. Dictators never leave voluntarily, unless forced to do so.

Allegations of corruption and misuse of EU funds in Spain during the pandemic (topical debate)

Mr President, President von der Leyen wants to re-chair the left-wing alliance of the Partido Popular, Socialistas y Verdes, of which a well-known member of her party, Mr González Pons, is so proud. That alliance that is destroying agriculture, livestock, family heritage, subsidiarity, the freedom of Spain and that of all nations. To fuel this sinister alliance, the Commission has handed over to Pedro Sánchez, the head of Spain's ultra-left government, tens of billions as frivolously as she once did, in the pandemic, bought and paid for vaccines for hundreds of thousands of them. Today it is not known where much of the money is, but it is suspected. Not a day goes by without new revelations of brutal corruption pointing to the PSOE, the government and even Sánchez's wife, with corrupt connections to countries of narco-communist dictatorships that maintain privileged relations with Sánchez's extremist government. The greatest guarantee that European funds will not be denied, as hitherto, due to ideological arbitrariness, to countries such as Hungary and Poland, or given to favorites such as Sanchez, who, in addition to being an enemy of freedom, rules sunk in the corruption of his government and his party, is that von der Leyen will go home.

Critical situation in Cuba (debate)

Madam President, we see here again the summit of hypocrisy regarding Cuba, saying that we do regret ordinary prisoners, but we must talk a lot about the blockade. There's no blockage. There's no blockage. There is an embargo that does not prevent the United States from feeding Cuba. Cuba is a shame for the Western world and especially for the European Union, where it has many accomplices, who are the ones who maintain that criminal dictatorship, a murderous dictatorship that not only crushes its entire population in a brutal way for sixty-five years, but also spreads the poison of narcoterrorism throughout the continent and has also managed to create those bloody situations of tragedy and dictatorship in other countries. It has done nothing but export misery, hunger, pain, terrorism and blood. That's what Cuba has done. This is full of protectors and the first protector that should be here is called Borrell. That is why Cuba is a scandal and it is necessary that we end that unworthy Agreement that, in addition, finances that murderous dictatorship.

War in the Gaza Strip and the need to reach a ceasefire, including recent developments in the region (debate)

Mr. President, it's a shame. Yes, yes. It is a pity that Borrell is not here, because the same thing would have told us that we must disarm Israel or that we must mount a boycott of Israel, as they asked at the Berlinale this Sunday, which has become a kind of event like "the night of the broken crystals" in miniature. That's what we're seeing on the left: a phobia of Israel and some demonstrations that say that of "from the river to the sea", that is, that Israel disappears. These are the demonstrations that the left is promoting throughout Europe and especially, of course, in Spain, with members of the Government. I very much regretted that the European People's Party was aiming to change the title of this debate and to bring in the ceasefire and remove UNRWA. UNRWA, which some of us have known about for decades, is complicit in all the terrorists that have been in the Palestinian Territories and also, of course, Hamas, and is an organization that acts directly with them. But there's one fundamental thing about the ceasefire. There will be no ceasefire and there should be no ceasefire until Hamas is over, because Hamas puts everything in jeopardy and it cannot be started again. Hamas must end, all hostages must be released and then we talk about that ceasefire that should not be there and that has been put by the European People's Party, unfortunately.

Automated data exchange for police cooperation (“Prüm II”) (debate)

Madam President, at the beginning of this parliamentary term we insisted that in order to protect the Schengen area, it was necessary to improve the mechanisms for police cooperation and reform the Euro-Order. There is no point in having an internal area without border controls if criminals are free to go about their business and there are no rules in place to prevent criminals from absconding or finding forums of convenience to evade law enforcement in the Member States. However, here we are again in one of those grotesque contradictions of the European Union, because Mr Puigdemont and his troops are still absconding from Spanish justice without the Euroorder having been worth anything. And they're not petty criminals. I remind you that Mr. Puigdemont is being investigated for terrorism, as endorsed yesterday by the Board of Prosecutors of the Supreme Court of Spain by a very large majority, in addition to his connections to arrive mercenary troops from Russia and support the coup in Catalonia in 2017. It is good that we improve the data exchange system to prevent and investigate crimes, but what about the euroorder?, Is it more important to exchange photos of the criminal or really exchange criminals to pay their guilt?

Need to fight the increase of antisemitism and anti-Muslim hatred (debate)

Madam President, Commissioner, with all due respect, I believe that there is a trap already in the title here. Anti-Semitism and Islamophobia are presented as existing equally and being the same. That's a lie. There are two anti-Semitisms that make Europe again very dangerous for Jews. We import anti-Semitism with borders open to the illegal and uncontrolled entry of millions of Jew-haters. We have seen European cities full of Muslims calling for the extermination of Jews and the destruction of Israel. And there is the other anti-Semitism, which is the anti-Semitism of the left, disguised as anti-Zionism, with professional haters of Israel such as Pedro Sanchez, whom Hamas terrorists congratulate, or his minister Rego, who heads demonstrations calling for the disappearance of Israel. Islamophobia, on the other hand, is an invention of that same anti-Semitic left to intimidate Europeans and force them to accept the unacceptable with this invasion of a culture hostile to their way of life, of millions who do not come to integrate, but to a territorial conquest that has already begun. The rejection of invasive attitudes is not hatred of any ideology or religion, it is self-defense of those who are attacked and are not defended by their rulers.

Further repression against the democratic forces in Venezuela: attacks on presidential candidate Maria Corina Machado (debate)

Mr. President, Communist criminal dictators do not abdicate. They don't go home voluntarily. Some dictators who have on their consciences not tens of thousands, but hundreds of thousands of dead, tortured, disappeared, and who have created a tragedy like the one created by Nicolás Maduro with all organized crime: those don't abdicate. Barbados was for them the same as it has been on previous occasions when they have teased the entire international community. And it seems untrue that there are still people here who say they had high hopes. There was no great hope. The only great hope there can be is that, now that they went wrong because they let Maria Corina run for those primaries and win them overwhelmingly, there is now outside pressure that hasn't been there before for all the complicity there was with Maduro. Because Maduro is there because of the complicity that has been with him, as the Cuban dictatorship is where it is because of the complicity that has been with it. Massive pressure from the European Union, massive pressure on the entire regime from the United States and the OAS. And that's it. And without that, there will never be anything in Venezuela. They will turn 65 like Cuba.

Russiagate: allegations of Russian interference in the democratic processes of the European Union (debate)

Madam President, today we know that Latvian parliamentarian Tatiana Ždanoka is a spy for the FSB and Putin's secret services. She has also been very active in my homeland, in Spain. Today we know that, a few years before the criminal invasion of Ukraine, Putin participated in another brutal attack against a European country, this one a member of the Union and NATO: participated in a coup d'état in Spain, in the region of Catalonia. That separatist coup failed. The ringleader fled and, since that crime, he has shamed this House - usually sitting there, up there - with his presence. His name is Carlos Puigdemont. Today we know that Putin promised him mercenaries and money to destroy the continent's oldest nation, Spain. In return, he would get Russia's penetration of the European financial system and a bridgehead to make the clamp from the west with his subversive war against Europe. Now, Puigdemont is a protégé of Spain's head of government, Sanchez, who needs him to stay in power illegally. Ždanoka, spy for Russia; Puigdemont, high treason to Spain and Europe, and its impunity shows Europe's vulnerability.

Recent ecological catastrophe involving plastic pellet losses and its impact on micro plastic pollution in the maritime and coastal habitats (debate)

Mr President, to clarify matters: on 18 February there are elections in Galicia. It is a Spanish region with a beautiful coast that has now had a spill of pellets, as they are having the coasts of Tarragona, in Catalonia, continuously and that do not make us have a meeting of these here. Quiet, that the title is absolutely wrong. There is no ecological catastrophe, there is a problem that must be solved, but it is one more problem. What happens is that the Spanish government, the socialist government, is giving a coup d'état and then anything, anything, is good for them to talk about something else. It is giving an amnesty that yesterday they were told that it is a coup d'état, that it is illegal what they are doing, they are dynamiting the Spanish judiciary, but they prefer to look for pellets, which on some beaches is easier to find two euro coins than those pellets, those pellets that are the catastrophe. In that sense, the soft government of Galicia should devote much more to the defense of Galicia, its coasts and to fight against the 2030 Agenda, which is guilty of what is happening there.

Mr President! First of all, I would say to the German Greens that they should not be so proud of this Kießling government that they have set up in Poland. Without the massive help of Germany and this Commission, this result would never have been achieved – firstly. Secondly: All of Germany was paralyzed, the government in Germany is broken, farmers across Europe are rebelling. Everyone is getting poorer, systematically poorer. The energy crisis is total. But here you just have to look at Orbán. Orbán is the one who helps Russia – no, the Germans have helped Russia a lot with their refusal to supply the necessary weapons. There is much more help for Putin than anywhere else. Hungary has ... Hungría se ha puesto en el camino correcto. Y, sin embargo, se la sigue castigando. En España hay un golpe de Estado.

State of emergency in Ecuador (debate)

Mr. President, the situation of total destabilization of Ecuador has reached insufferable limits and, therefore, the new president, Daniel Noboa, is doing what he has to do: use all the resources of the state to defeat the policy of terror and territorial control of the alliance of organized crime and the subversive forces of narco-communism. Because behind all this use of chaos and terror there is a project, there is always a political project, and we must remember how criminal narco collectives were used in Venezuela and other countries such as Bolivia to intimidate society, with the same result. We have also seen it in Colombia. Ecuador is one of the few countries that, until now, had been freed, after the years of Correa, from all this plague of narco-socialism. The current moment is that of the reaction of Noboa to achieve stability, the security of the State and that we do not fall again into that correismo that was the one that fed for many years that alliance of organized crime with its totalitarian project.

Threat to rule of law as a consequence of the governmental agreement in Spain (debate)

Mr President, amnesty is unconstitutional, it is illegal, it has no place in our legal system. I don't say it, the far right doesn't say it, no, Pedro Sanchez said it. I quote again: "amnesty is illegal, it is unconstitutional, it has no place in our legal system" (Pedro Sánchez). His minister Grande-Marlaska, on November 4, 2019: ‘Amnesty is not recognised by the Spanish legal system’. Carmen Calvo, then Vice-President of Sánchez, on 27 April 2021: Do we propose amnesty? The only possible answer is that it is not questionable because it would be to suppress one of the three powers of the State. They were right, and they promised never to do so until they lost an election and their majority no longer reached them with communist extremists, ex-terrorists, coup plotters and embezzlers pardoned last legislature. But after the July 23 elections they lacked those votes and had to ask the criminal coup plotters up there, the escaped coup criminals who are there. And those have been given in secret negotiations outside Spain, negotiations for an amnesty, to continue deceiving the Spaniards. That yes lawfare or not lawfare. Now it turns out that there are some committees in Parliament that are going to control the judges and Mr Reynders does not know, apparently, that there are some committees that are going to terrify, to terrify the judges. That's what's happening in Spain, gentlemen. And that's a coup. That is precisely a coup d'état, with the criminals and with the coup plotters.

Humanitarian situation in Gaza, the need for the release of hostages and for an immediate humanitarian truce leading to a ceasefire and the prospects for peace and security in the Middle East (debate)

Mr. President, Golda Meir said that the war in Palestine, in Israel, would end when Palestinians love their children more than they hate Jews. That hasn't happened yet. We're a long way from it. We must also say that we have contributed to this, because we are financing books in the Palestinian territories that only foment hatred of Israel and that systematically foment the whole culture of terrorism. In Gaza, what happened on 7 October was celebrated with enthusiasm, and in the territories controlled by the Palestinian Authority, it was also celebrated with enthusiasm. The Palestinian Authority – which is presented here as stupendous in the face of Hamas – is also the one that continues to give prizes to terrorists for the Jews they kill. In that sense, Israel has the right to end this war by forever ending Hamas, with that threat. And here it seems that some do not want it to happen. It is going to happen and – regretting all the deaths, regretting all the misfortunes – we hope it will end, it has to end, with those guarantees that Israel will give to itself because we do not give them to it.

Across Europe, many forces have been manifesting, not just foreign ones, not just those millions that we have brought - many of them sworn enemies of our Western society - and that we have imported, that anti-Semitism that we have imported into all of Europe and that we have at this very active moment, so cruelly active. That's happening here. This is a war against the West. Israel is the stronghold of the West.

A true geopolitical Europe now (topical debate)

Madam President, the geopolitical Europe we are looking for faces very clear adversaries who know what they want. And here we have a geopolitical Europe that doesn't know it. And when proposals come out, proposals come out here praising Mrs. von der Leyen and saying that she is the solution and that is the way. I believe that the way is clear, the way is that there will never again be a Franco-German axis that dictates politics here for its interests, because they have led us to disaster and they have led us to vulnerability and they have also led us, through the ideological drift that we have here and that they have in the United States, to an absolutely incredible vulnerability within societies. We have opened the borders without any control. It is happening every day, thousands and thousands of individuals are coming in from certain parts of the world where they are worshipping and celebrating what has been done, the savages against Israel, against the representative of our world in the Middle East – to see if we recognize it – and we are leaving them and they are celebrating it already in the Spanish capitals, in the European capitals in general; and in Spain it is being celebrated by the Government, part of the Government at least. At least, in that sense, to see if we have that solidity that we need to make a policy or a geopolitics against Russia, against China and against Iran, which is the axis of evil against us, against our values. And we have to do it with the United States and with Ibero-America. Let's see if we do it with democracies and with whom we share our values and do not do anti-American politics when we have been flirting, and doing politics to sabotage Washington, helping Tehran. And there we have Tehran doing what it is doing. Therefore, let us reconsider, and never again, the Franco-German axis that has brought us here, to dependence on Russia and everything that has happened since.

The despicable terrorist attacks by Hamas against Israel, Israel’s right to defend itself in line with humanitarian and international law and the humanitarian situation in Gaza (debate)

Mr President, Mr Minister, Mr High Representative, we have witnessed the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. That's sparked a war. And now some are complaining about the effects of the war.

In Gaza there is not a Jew, there is not a settlement, there is not a Jewish soldier for twenty years. There the Palestinians rule. There billions and billions were sent from Europe and the United States to build that. Something good could have been done there. They have a border with Egypt, with their Muslim brothers. They have done nothing but a pit of hatred, weapons and destruction. That's what's been there. And, in the meantime, we are seeing the same thing happening to us in Europe. We are with open borders, bringing all those who support Hamas. They are even supported by a government, which is yours, Minister.

Effectiveness of the EU sanctions on Russia (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, we all very much agree - I think there is a fairly broad consensus in this House - that these sanctions are necessary. It is necessary to avoid escapes and fissures in these sanctions and it is necessary to reinforce them until Russia gives in and, if the necessary weapons are really given to the Ukrainians, they manage to recover their territory. Now, there has been a lot of talk here about Orbán and China as buyers from Russia. But I want to talk here about the current Presidency. The country that bought the most oil from Russia in August was Spain, after China. 18% of Russia's oil sales go to Spain directly; 20% to China, the largest buyer. In that sense, let's see if we really stop so much rhetoric and go to the practical issues. Spain is not setting an example precisely in this Presidency.

That said, Mr Borrell, Pinochet's dictatorship lasted 16 years and left a country that, as everyone has said, is a flourishing democracy. Cuba has been in misery for 64 years. You spoke of 3,000 dead in Chile, how many dead have we been in Cuba? How many dead have we been in Venezuela in 20 years? And there you are protecting those regimes and crying over a dictatorship that left a country in motion, did not leave a country in ruins. He took a country in ruins. Because if you see how Chile was with Allende, how they were occupying, how they were killing, how they were usurping, how they were entering the factories and taking and kidnapping the foremen and kidnapping the owners and killing the people.

The political disqualifications in Venezuela

Madam President, in a dictatorship there are no free elections, in order for there to be free elections, the dictatorship must end. But no one can expect them today in Cuba, or in Nicaragua. Well, not in Venezuela either. But as everyone wants to do business with a dictatorship, which has settled thanks to terror, in oil Venezuela, conditions are invented that do not exist for those who play opposition, their collaborators and other stakeholders to measure. In that framework, a space of freedom has been created unexpectedly and a figure has emerged, María Corina Machado, the only charismatic, who has demonstrated in five years of harassment an unconditional firmness in the face of the greatest murderer in America, which is the dictator Maduro. Now Maduro has closed the space with the disqualification of María Corina as before, demonstrating what we already knew: tyranny excludes free elections. The CELAC summit begins on Monday. Maduro was as invited as the tyrant Diaz-Canel, but he does not dare to come to Europe. But he insults us by sending Delcy Rodriguez, another criminal who is banned from entering the European Union. Is there a greater affront? I'm sure you will. The CELAC summit, with so many important issues, really pending, turned into a ceremony of laundering dictatorships.

The European peoples are already suffering severely from the effects of this Green Deal.

State of EU Cuba PDCA in the light of the recent visit of the High Representative to the island (debate)

Madam President, first I would like to say to my friend Javi López that everything he has been listing about Nicaragua can be applied exactly the same to Cuba and yet he wants to punish Nicaragua and with Cuba he wants to talk about modernisation, like Mr Borrell, who tells us that there are reforms and modernisation. The reforms that have taken place are that there are a number of minors who have been sentenced to ten years in prison for shouting freedom. That is the modernization that has taken place in Cuba lately and for which we are rewarding with money, with millions of euros that Mr Borrell is taking to him, despite a resolution by this Parliament that told him that the democratic clause of the Agreement had to be applied and that payments and the Agreement had to be suspended. There hasn't been any of that. On the contrary: He has gone to Cuba to act again as a lawyer for the Cuban dictatorship asking for the lifting of that ghostly embargo. That's what he's done: propaganda for the dictatorship. That's why I say to him: You can't be a representative of 27 democracies and be all day defending a dictatorship. You resign, Mr. Borrell, for real, or go to Cuba to defend that criminal dictatorship.
