Situation in Nicaragua (debate)

Mr President, this is the fourth resolution that we have brought to this House in a year and a half to confirm the deterioration of the political and social situation in Nicaragua. The Nicaraguan people, besieged by poverty, brutal repression, the curtailment of their freedoms and the persecution of ecclesiastical representatives by the regime, are already worthy of a Nero or a Domitian. The dictatorial marriage of Ortega and Murillo – right, right, Mr Borrell – who are at the moment the great stars of political crime, has been sponsoring the systematic violation of human rights from the Sandinista power for years. Today, the United Nations classifies the actions of its regime as crimes against humanity. Well, now let's see: Where does the Sandinista regime come from? It comes from the help of the socialists and the help of Cuba. It has been Cuba that has created Nicaragua and it is the São Paulo Forum that supports Nicaragua and has ties with Russia, as does Cuba. Why is Mr. Borrell going to Cuba to guarantee Cuba that we will continue to give him millions? Millions for nothing, for violating human rights, just like Nicaragua, and now it is telling us that Nicaragua must be punished. Please, a little coherence, Mr. Borrell.

Protecting and restoring marine ecosystems for sustainable and resilient fisheries - Agreement of the IGC on Marine Biodiversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction (High Seas Treaty) (debate)

Mr President, we have seen how every so often the European Commission comes to tell us that we have to protect the seas, that we have to respect biodiversity and that we have to respect ecosystems, but no one ever comes to tell us that we have to respect fishermen, that we have to respect their families, that we have to respect the population and that we have to respect, in general, Europeans, from whom their livelihoods are being taken one after another. Spain is not understood without sea. We have eight thousand kilometers of coastline. Spain put the seas on the map of the world. Spain has the largest fishing industry in the Union, 20% of total production. That is why we are the first interested and really busy protecting this resource. Seas and biodiversity matter to us very, very much. But we care a lot and a lot about fishermen, we care a lot and a lot about farmers and we care a lot and a lot about Spaniards and Europeans in general, who are constantly attacked by these issues, always motivated by the ideology of the most radical, which the Commission has systematically taken on board. You are again attacking Europe's fishing while China subsidizes and strengthens its fishing fleet and also uses it as a geopolitical weapon, while illegal Moroccan fishing continues to use driftnets, curtains of death, despite the millions that were paid so that it did not use them. In fishing as in agriculture they subsidize Morocco so that it continues to laugh at you, who deserve it, and at millions of Europeans, who do not deserve it. In reality, they should give up the 2030 Agenda and the Green Deal, which is what is leading us to this lack of respect for Europeans in general.

IPCC report on Climate Change: a call for urgent additional action (debate)

Mr President, all the forces which base their political project on purely socialist social engineering must justify their policy with terrible threats of imminent, ever more imminent and ever greater catastrophes. That's what the IPCC and its scientists do. It was also scientists who said that Mrs. von der Leyen's Pfizer vaccines were so safe and effective, and were neither. It stands to reason that they are now demanding of European nations, of all Europeans who are not part of those elites who are reunited with their jets in Davos, who renounce their freedom and their well-being, their habits, their rights and their property, supposedly to save the planet. No longer is the promise of the paradise of the Bolshevik Revolution, of social justice or of things that no one believes in this century. However, there are all the parties - from the EPP Group to the far left and the Greens/EFA Group, worth the redundancy - who, from the consensus, now use the end of the world to force everyone to do what they would refuse to do under normal conditions. This whole report tells us about the need for Europeans to give up growth and assume impoverishment for all but some. Because the average temperature of the last twenty years is a degree higher than the average between 1850 and 1900. The fact is that the immense sacrifices they urgently demand of Europeans will make them poorer, but they will not make the world any safer. This is an ideological project to demand the total submission of the population through a total reduction of rights and their quality of life.

Repression in Russia, in particular the cases of Vladimir Kara-Murza and Alexei Navalny

Madam President, I am very happy to be in full agreement with Mr Verhofstadt today. Once again Russia is condemned to have its best children in prison and its worst bandits in the palaces of power. Once again the Russians are condemned to ignore all their rights as people. Again the Russians are condemned to die by the whims of a tyrant. Again, as in 1937, Russians who tell the truth disappear from their homes. The sick who are now in the dungeons are not Mandelshtam, Bábel, Solyenitsin or Sakharov, but Vladimir Kara-Murza and Alexei Navalni. They are again the heroes, the best of Russia. It is not German or Ukrainian Nazis who threaten, mistreat, imprison and lead to the death of Russians; He's a tyrant again. History will condemn him and admire the heroes, but we have to take action. In this sense, we have the EU Magnitsky Act, which can be applied immediately to very specific people.

Situation in Peru (debate)

Mr President, Peru has suffered a lot in recent years and especially in recent months. But their democracy has won a great battle against totalitarians, with a democratic muscle and strong institutions like no other country on the subcontinent. Its communist president, Pedro Castillo, elected in dubious elections, launched a coup last December. He wanted to accelerate the path to a narco-communist regime under the Sao Paulo Forum and the Puebla Group, the alliance of the communist movement and drug trafficking, such as the regimes of Venezuela, Nicaragua and Cuba that fed it and those that are brewing in Colombia, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. But Peru's institutions reacted and stopped the coup. Narco-communism organised in the streets brutal external interference – with unusual letters from neighbouring presidents – subversive and violent. There the dead were wanted by subversion, they were not wanted by the government to which they were opposed. But for now, democratic Peru has defeated totalitarian forces. The democracies must help to strengthen this democratic Peru and its institutions, and not the communist regimes that harass it, and that have taken a huge setback by not being able to take it to their camp, which is what it was about. See, moreover, Mr Borrell, your pampered Lula, that much praised Lula, now the great ally of Russia and China, the enemy of the West, the one who will protect all subversion in the subcontinent that. And let's see if we learn a little bit from it all. Let's see if we learn a little bit from all this and we are confirming everything.

The need for a coherent strategy for EU-China Relations (debate)

Mr President, Mr Borrell, the People's Republic of China is a strategic rival and adversary of the interests of Europe and of the way of life of the so-called free world, of which Europe is a part with America – with the United States as well – and which penetrates every day in Africa, in Ibero-America, in Asia and in Europe itself. As we are seeing, in Europe we are selling much of our infrastructure, our ports and our rail networks to China. Finally, in this Parliament – where so many useless things are being done for which we have neither powers nor influence – a very serious thing was done, namely the report on a new EU-China strategy of September 2021, which gave the keys to separating us once and for all from that absolutely lethal dependence that had been created in the last two decades. But again, certain countries, which seek to impose ideological criteria on everyone else in the European Union, defend their own interests separately and, of course, still do not demand due reciprocity. And they've all rushed to Beijing, one after the other, to defend their own interests. Thus, every year Germany increases its exchange with China, which is its main trading partner, and the French President and the President of the Commission herself allow themselves trips to Beijing that end up being little less than a fiasco for everyone and for Europe, except, perhaps, for French contractors. Europe must not and cannot stop trading with China, but it must recover many of the relocations made and prevent others, such as those planned by Merkel, Macron and von der Leyen with Xi Jinping, behind the backs of Europeans... (the Chair took the floor from the speaker).

Deaths at sea: a common EU response to save lives and action to ensure safe and legal pathways (debate)

Mr. President, right, every death at sea is a drama. But many of these tragedies are preventable and some willingly take them on to continue the immense business of human trafficking to Europe. The culprits in the deaths are not the nations that protect their borders, but the policies of uncontrolled immigration and the irresponsible knock-on effect that drive crowds into the sea and risk their lives in the hands of traffickers. The mafias of traffickers are not only made up of criminal gangs that seduce with promises and collect fortunes. Your necessary collaborators are false humanitarian organizations led by the extreme left, supported by all of you, and that collect human merchandise in stipulated places at sea, the last link in the chain of slaveholders of the 21st century. Meanwhile, in Spain and Europe the effects of this illegal immigration are skyrocketing: the collapse of services and the escalation of insecurity, violence and crime. All to get cheap labor. If they want to end the deaths in the sea Giorgia Meloni shows the way: closing death routes, repatriating illegals and jailing traffickers, ships and dispatches.

The functioning of the EEAS and a stronger EU in the world (debate)

Mr. President, good afternoon to you all. The report by rapporteur Urmas Paet calls for a reform of the European External Action Service (EEAS) to give it more powers and more power; and, incidentally, also to change the way of voting in the Council through the back door, so that the dominant ideology of the EEAS, so marked, is imposed and has no one to oppose it. The war in Ukraine has brought some surprises, such as Mr Borrell finally being forced to put himself – for once – on the right side of history. But, for the rest, it follows where Borrell's foreign service was: de fuerza protectora del régimen criminal de los ayatolás, la que despreció los Acuerdos de Abraham porque los había logrado el odiado Trump, del que se acaba de hablar también; from lobby the permanent dictatorship of Cuba, to which the European Union, incomprehensibly, continues to pay and subsidise millions to crush its people; and has campaigned undisguised by the narco-communist candidates of the São Paulo Forum, from Boric to Petro, from Lula to Arce. By the way, today marks two years in prison for Jeanine Áñez. Jeanine Áñez is in jail for carrying out a plan supervised by the European Union and the Organization of American States (OAS). Nobody said anything. Has he been asked for his freedom now? No, no, no, no, no, no, In Venezuela, the EEAS has invented the conditions for holding elections under the tyrant Maduro that are as absurd as they are ridiculous. Now, the "foreign socialist service" prepares for the socialist Borrell the "socialist semester" of Sánchez, the 2023 roadmap, as a great operation of legitimation of the consummated dictatorships and in process, all friends of the Spanish Government. The EEAS does not need more money or more size or more power. It needs more commitment to truth and freedom.

Violence against opposition activists in Equatorial Guinea, notably the case of Julio Obama Mefuman

Madam President, I am going to tell you the same story, but with something that some of you have forgotten here. This is this unfortunate incident in the dictatorship with the world's oldest dictator. In November 2019, four opposition members – two of Spanish nationality – were abducted in South Sudan by Obiang agents. After being imprisoned and tortured in Guinea, they are sentenced to 60 and 90 years in prison for attempted coup d'état. Spanish police get evidence that Carmelo Obiang, a son of the dictator living in Spain, is the perpetrator of the kidnapping. Spanish judge Santiago Pedraz issues an arrest warrant, but within days, as police prepared to arrest him, he revokes it. Send a request to Obiang, public, with no summary secret now. This one, logically, runs away. Then one of the condemned Spaniards dies in prison: Julio Obama Mefuman. Now the socialists want to condemn Obiang and his dictatorship in generic terms, but they forget – and want to forget – the succulent trade relations of socialist leaders of the PSOE, such as José Bono, Miguel Ángel Moratinos and Rodríguez Zapatero, with the Obiang dictatorship. We condemn the crimes of the dictatorship, but the Spanish Government must explain what happened so that Judge Pedraz would allow the culprit to flee, revoking that summary secret and the arrest warrant. We want to know.

The erosion of the rule of law in Greece: the wiretapping scandal and media freedom (topical debate)

Madam President, the scandal of wiretapping in Greece has spread endlessly and, as often happens in these cases, there are already so many injured that it will be increasingly difficult to find the culprit, because there are many injured and few benefited. That a state-building dynamic is being created in all European countries at the expense of citizens' rights seems very clear. We are seeing it dramatically in Spain. But the lack of transparency is one thing that affects us all. Here López Aguilar was speaking before the problem of the lack of rights that is being created everywhere and very particularly in Spain. In that sense, I think the alarm bell has to start from here. But with regard to transparency here, the Commission should start by explaining to us, for example, what it puts in those messages it had with the head of Pfizer talking about vaccines. When we know that and we have transparency here, we can ask Mr Mitsotakis for transparency and we can ask for it elsewhere. In the meantime, we're here talking in a vacuum.

Establishment of an independent EU Ethics Body (debate)

Mr President, it has been necessary for a vice-president of this Parliament, a socialist, to be in jail today in order for us to know about Qatargate, Moroccogate and corruption, of course, which may have been key in a policy of privilege to Morocco that has seriously damaged Spain's interests. But these arrests have also been necessary for us to know about the NGO Fight Impunity, one of the hundreds of leftist NGOs that swarm this House. They do so with complete freedom, as we know, with Mr Panzeri, with the socialist Cazeneuve, with the filocommunist Mogherini and with Emma Bonino, who was a member of that Santer Commission that had to resign en bloc in 1999. This is not only happening in Parliament, what we see here and it hurts us so much. Borrell, with the Socialist Group, coordinates with the Cuban Embassy – a dictatorship – its actions. Borrell justified that Delcy Rodríguez, violating the sanctions of the European Union, arrived in Spain and left there forty suitcases, which we do not know where they have gone. A drug trafficker sanctioned by the European Union and a member of a criminal government. We also don't know anything about Huawei's apologists. Why do they do it? Do they do it for free? And what about the Pfizergate? Where are the messages exchanged by von der Leyen with Pfizer CEO Bourla? It was said that they were going to bring them. They have not appeared, as we well know. New codes of ethics are not needed here, nor are new fees charged for new diets. Here we need honesty and love of truth. That, many here, is prevented by their ideology.

The storming of the Brazilian democratic institutions

Mr. President, everyone here seems to agree very much. I very much agree that we must strongly condemn the violence that took place in Brasilia on the 8th, with the assault on state buildings that represent the democratic state of Brazil, and we must all firmly condemn it and hope that those who really participated in it will have a fair trial. However, I do not remember anyone right now who has recalled that, in 2017, Lula’s supporters stormed and set fire to three ministries in Brasília – three ministries burned in Brasília by followers of Mr Lula. Mr. Lula founded the Forum of São Paulo, the great narco-communist network that exists at the moment in Ibero-America and that is burning all democracies. Mr. Lula founded it with Mr. Castro. Mr. Castro is not known as a democrat who came to power, precisely, peacefully. Let's see if we see everything with a little more clarity and we see that democracy is in danger in Ibero-America because of the São Paulo Forum, which Lula founded. That is the fundamental threat to democracy there.

Protecting the Rule of Law against impunity in Spain (topical debate)

Madam President, it was time, of course, for this Parliament to deal with the most scandalous and serious case of undemocratic degradation in Europe, which is what Spain is suffering. In three years, under Pedro Sánchez and his government of socialists and communists, harassment of judges and prosecutors has reached levels typical of Ibero-American Chavista regimes. The abuse of public and private media for government propaganda and attacks on the opposition, with disqualification and criminalization of the opposition, is typical of non-democratic systems. That's no coincidence. The government parties – socialists and communists – have close ideological and corruption links with dictatorships, as in the case of PDVSA with Venezuela or the sending of money to Podemos, the communists, from narco-states such as Venezuela and Bolivia. Spain's government has forced, manipulated and even abolished laws and pressured judges and put politicians they trust as magistrates to help criminal coup plotters and free terrorist murderers, because it depends on their minority votes to continue governing. Until the last day of his campaign he promised he wouldn't do that, just what he did next: agree with the criminals to get the votes of the criminals.

EU response to the protests and executions in Iran (debate)

Madam President, Iran, that is already very clear, is one of the worst enemies of freedom in the world. It has been for forty years. All opposition has been silenced in blood and violence and its years of existence are counted as massacres. That is so, as I say, for a long time. And yet, Europe has always had a position of compromise, looking for ways to do business when others warned about the brutal threat that Iran is, which has always been Iran. And Iran right now has the whole region kidnapped, it has Syria, it has Hezbollah in Lebanon, it has half of Iraq kidnapped and occupied. de facto, and continues to expand. It assists Russia in the war of aggression against Ukraine and has been heavily involved in Latin America, where – in Venezuela and elsewhere – it is involved in illegal mining, drug trafficking, money laundering and all that is the network of the São Paulo Forum and the Puebla Group. That's what socialists and communists like so little to talk about here, because we know the relationship that exists between them and those partners in Iran. We must now go to the punishment of direct Iran. It is not worth it with Mr Borrell's new visits, as were Mrs Mogherini's visits to Tehran shortly after the massacres. We must go to the illegalization, to the list of terrorists for everything that is the Revolutionary Guard. We must demand a radical investigation and, of course, put an end to what has been trying to find bridges, and cut off the negotiation of the JCPOA at once.

Promoting regional stability and security in the broader Middle East region (debate)

Madam President, well, this is a report - with all affection, Mr Pineda - signed by someone in this Parliament who has photographs with virtually all the terrorist groups in the Middle East, which initially clashes. But it certainly reflects well what is the manifest sectarianism of this Parliament and the European Union towards the Middle East. It also explains why we paint practically nothing in the Middle East. For that sectarianism, for that bias that has led us to continue financing organizations that have a lot to do with destabilization and that, for example, here there has not been at the time any interest in supporting the great American success of President Trump that were the Abraham Accords, which are the ones that open the door to real stability, to what is prosperity and openness within the Middle East to open a new era of cooperation in that region.

I would like to know where the Spanish Government is, which has not yet condemned the sanctions and that blacklist that Iran has made against European parliamentarians, including Spaniards.

Very soon, drinking a glass of water will be a luxury in the countries of the European Union as a consequence of applying an irrational agricultural model where the farmer is presented as the number one enemy of the environment, productivity as a taboo and the profitability of farms as a marginal or unimportant aspect. In Spain we are seeing that every day a stab is given to our primary sector, to our agriculture, to our fishing. We're looking at it.

It must be fought with truth, not with censure. And here are many temptations to do the latter. The Kremlin has been paying groups and parties in Europe for many years, from the extreme right, from the extreme left and also, gentlemen, from the conventional parties, which are you. Because the Euro Putins Putin's European acolytes are fundamentally the big parties in Germany, which have led us in Europe to this situation of general prostration against Putin. We do not know if Putin would have dared to do a number of things if he had not had these guarantees that have been given him for fifteen years, fifteen years of helping him to achieve total dependence on the part of Europe, on the part of Mr Schröder, on the part of Mr Steinmeier, on the part of Mr Scholz, on the whole Social Democratic Party of Germany in general.

The death of Mahsa Amini and the repression of women's rights protesters in Iran (debate)

The police of the terrorist regime of the Ayatollahs kill a woman with beatings and torture for showing her hair, for wearing that shawl badly; for wearing badly a handkerchief of which the European Union makes propaganda and which the European Union protects in posters and in its own advertising. Then the police kill and kill and kill women and men who protest against this monstrous regime. It's over 300. And it may be, it may be that this is the beginning of the end of that regime. But, curiously, very little comes out in our media, in our European media, so social democratic and trained, it comes out very little because there are other interests. In 2019, Mr. Borrell, we had 1,500 dead in December. A month later you were shaking hands with the authorities, with the bosses of the murderers, with those who stained all the streets of Iran's cities with blood. Behind, there are interests, apparently very powerful. The European Union must put an end to the agreements with this regime. The European Union must stop treating Iran as if it were any partner; is a terrorist partner, of which you cannot be a partner, in any case.

Nicaragua, in particular the arrest of the bishop Rolando Álvarez

Madam President, Nicaragua is a socialist dictatorship led by a brutal tyrant, Daniel Ortega, who for decades has been pampered by the European left. As have been Cuba and Venezuela. Let us remember that less than a year ago, on the part of the Commission, the demonstrations and brutal repression that took place in Cuba on July 11 were being explained and Cuba was being protected. As Venezuela has been protected so many times. Now a regime is condemned, the criminal Sandinista, for an arrest of a bishop, of Bishop Rolando Álvarez, because the persecution of the Catholic Church is what the dictatorship has left at this moment for repression. They have arrested the opposition, tortured and murdered students, the cage is being completed and closed in a brutal way, but, here, in the Resolution, attempts to decontextualize are again seen. The Nicaraguan dictatorship is a socialist dictatorship that exists because the São Paulo Forum exists, because Cuba exists, because Venezuela exists, because other democratic governments have fallen and, through violence and drug trafficking, we are seeing how democracies in Ibero-America are sinking and how Ortega, now with Russian help, is arming himself and consolidating his dictatorship. There we have the responsibility, in the São Paulo Forum, in Russia, in what is the whole context of socialist and narco-communism in Ibero-America.

Renewed partnership with the Southern Neighbourhood – a new agenda for the Mediterranean (debate)

Madam President, if anything harms the European Union, it is the lack of credibility and all this kind of talk that is without a doubt ineffective, because all the pressing problems, the really pressing ones, do not come under consideration here. Our real problems are right now in seeking to curb absolutely unchecked immigration and seeking to curb the terrorist threat. It is necessary to make the deportations that take place effective and to put an end to the existence of international networks of illegal immigration trafficking, in which NGOs, also financed by European governments, participate very actively. It is necessary to defend the external borders, also with physical barriers, also in Ceuta and Melilla, which are two Spanish cities, and to put an end to the education in hatred and the cult of terrorism that the European Union finances in the Palestinian territories. Our fundamental problems, with incentives and deterrence, are to convince young people in the Maghreb and across Africa that their future lies in the development of their countries and not in Europe. No overdose of political correctness will give us solutions, but it will delay and harm us and create more problems for us.
