2025 Commission report on Türkiye (debate)

Madam President, as every year, so this year, the Turks celebrated the Fall. Their national narrative: They always have cultures. Then they had Mongolian horses, now they have German, Spanish and other foxes. The Turks are arming Europhilargy and naivety. We hear about the European far right and we really laugh. The history of the CHP, the Turkish comrades of the Socialists and the Greens, is bloodthirsty. Please be informed. They literally swim in the blood of Christians, our grandparents. From the Mongolian steppes to the present day, they have a spreading mentality comparable to cancer and buy European technology drones, Leopards and transports. Which European Union? What values? We now demand the implementation of Resolution 944 of 2008 and, of course, never, ever to upgrade the customs union with Turkey.

Commemoration of the genocide of Armenians and Greeks in Pontos and Asia Minor (debate)

Mr President, Turkey declares that something happened 100 years ago, so today it must be forgotten. Unfortunately, we have met willing fellow parrots of such paid positions. Ladies and gentlemen, we are not talking about 3.5 million ankles. We are talking about 3.5 million people slaughtered by Turkish Islamism, of whom 353 000 Pontic Greeks, simply because they were Christians. We don't forget it, as it was our grandparents. But they could be your grandparents. We recall that there was guidance from German politicians and soldiers who tested methods that they then perfected. Every year we ask Turkey for recognition, unsuccessfully. This year, we are also calling for Germany to acknowledge its contribution to the genocide and end its unacceptable support for Turkish Islamism. Turkish Islamism targeted Hellenism and every version of Christianity and non-Turks. It is a conflict between Hellenism and Turkism, between Christianity and Islam, between darkness and light, between civilization and conquest, between murder and theft. What a shame to say you're Turkish. Our ally is memory, historical knowledge, responsibility. Our enemy is the paid holidays for you and your family, the free tickets of Turkish Airlines and the legitimate and controlled Islamist voters who promise you. Pick a side.

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Turkey is preparing an invasion against us. Now is Europe's time. Neutrality is complicity and it seems that complicity is bought. Soon we will have revelations about Turkey-gate. Anyone who talks about military cooperation with Turkey must be on the sidelines, dangerous and finger-pointed. The entry of Turkish agents should be prohibited. We know and you know, every euro that goes especially to Turkey's war industry is a bullet in a Greek, and some people import war material. After Turkey's intention to extend Greek jurisdiction, there is no question. We must put an end to any European programme that favours Turkey. It is unheard of for European governments to deal militarily with Turkey. Can the Spanish rapporteur also remain in the report on Turkey? Socialists must rethink it while Spain does business with Hitler's Turkish equivalent. Ask these governments if they would import from Nazi Germany simply because of cheaper prices.

Rail transport safety in the EU – lessons learnt from the Adamuz accident and three years after the Tempi tragedy (debate)

Madam President, the criminal case of the Tempi crime has been artificially fragmented in many cases, exhausting the relatives of the victims and removing the investigation from the objective truth. All these files were opened after the crime. All but one. Contract 717 has been under investigation since 2018. If this project had been completed, the crime that killed 57 people would have been avoided. However, this investigation was "buried" with a misleading finding. The auditors of the National Transparency Authority, who allegedly covered up criminal responsibilities, are currently on trial. But instead of the Greek State supporting the charge, it finances the defense of the defendants. Even court decisions requesting the presence of the State are attempted to be circumvented. When the state itself obstructs justice, then we are talking about a serious crisis of the rule of law. I would like to ask you, Commissioner, what steps are you going to take to overturn this executive cover-up? How does the Commission intend to intervene in order to guarantee the right to a fair trial? Finally, how do you assess the fact that 12 years after the conclusion of the criminal contract 717, it has not yet been implemented?

Urgent actions to revive EU competitiveness, deepen the EU Single Market and reduce the cost of living - from the Draghi report to reality (debate)

Madam President, the paradoxes themselves. For years we have been hearing about artificial intelligence that will drive most occupations into unemployment. On the other hand, labor import agreements are being made. So we're importing tomorrow's bonuses? Competitiveness requires economic and social predictability. When, apart from legitimate businesses, there is smuggling of all kinds, what kind of competitiveness are we talking about? We also all know young people who are leaving to study and work in the US and East Asian states to avoid the Islamist cancer that is spreading in our societies and universities. Do we want our civilized young people or do we want the allahuakbari? Finally, yes, we want in every way the repatriation of Greeks abroad. We need an organized strategy to reattract our own people, regardless of whether they are the first or fourth generation in the United States. In a world torn apart by absurdity, we want our economy strong and we want our country back and let's eat stones.

Restoring control of migration: returns, visa policy and third-country cooperation (topical debate)

Mr President, the European Union is the only one that in one way or another has open borders. That's because he made the mistake of considering the real Europeans replaceable. He didn't see the people, he saw the numbers. Our societies have literally bled. And the time has come to tell every European government that we are not numbers, we are not replaceable. Europe belongs to its nations. Russia, China and Japan have shown the way. The US, Israel and Hungary also showed the way. It's time to say goodbye to the ugly world we leave behind. No more ghettos in our cities, no more no-go zones. Now, every time we talk about immigration, we will also talk about deportations. Deportations and zero tolerance. Any government that does not initiate deportations will be punished by the people as they should. The world of real Europeans is emerging.

Implementation of the rule of law conditionality regime (debate)

Madam President, we are talking about an unjust state, not a European rule of law. It is unfair and extremely anti-European, in the primary sense of the term, to target states that believe in Christian values and defend their culture. Hungary is the number one target as it resists illegal invasion. The European Commission is targeting nation states that want to remain nation states. On the contrary, he sees no problem in the Mitsotakis government. A highly servile government to German demands. After all, it is a government plunged into corruption, committed to squandering public money on us. We are talking about an unjust state, a European superstate and parastate that we have before us. We repeat: End the targeting of nation states. No more rinsing us. Enough with the hypocrisy of the von der Leyen Commission.

2026 budgetary procedure: joint text (debate)

Mr President, new reductions for agriculture and cohesion. Two pillars supporting farmers and the region. We are seeing huge cuts in agriculture. Basic income support for farmers is reduced by EUR 83.7 million, while the crisis reserve of the Guarantee Fund is cut by EUR 35 million. We see policies that gnaw at the income of our producers. In cohesion, even if there is no nominal reduction, the reality is equally worrying. It is even necessary to activate the flexibility tool for just one million euro. This is not a functional design. It is a confession that cohesion policy is suffocating. At the same time as the European leadership opposes U.S. initiatives for peace in Ukraine, it is funding the corrupt Zelenskyy regime and the defense production of Turkish affiliates in Europe. Everything is wrong with the European budget.

Preparation of the European Council meeting of 23 October 2025 (debate)

Madam President, Mr Nikos Aslanidis was travelling with a delegation of journalists to Istanbul. The Turkish authorities stopped him at the border as an undesirable person and dangerous for the country, without any further justification. This action constitutes a blatant violation of press freedom, confirming Ankara's illiberal conception. Turkey, even today, persecutes anyone who speaks about the historical reality of the genocide of the Greeks and all the Christians of Asia Minor. Europe and Turkey are moving in two completely different cultural universes. The obstruction of the Greek journalist is a mosaic in the vast mosaic of Turkish unfreedom. No intelligent person contemplates cooperation with Turkey on security matters. A top security issue is the promotion of historical truth about Turkey internationally.

Changing security landscape and the role of police at the heart of the EU’s internal security strategy (debate)

Mr President, before we require police officers to be examples of social behaviour, we must ensure their dignity. The phenomenon of police officers with afternoon jobs to supplement the wages offends common sense and the sense of justice, it strikes at the very core of the rule of law. We are talking about the people who are facing the wave of illegal immigration in the state where smuggling and the mafia rule. At the same time, in Italy, France and Germany, police officers are paid two, three and four times the salary of the Greek police officer, respectively. Nevertheless, the Greek police continue their heroic work, despite the intolerable reality. An obvious precondition for the success of the European Union's internal security strategy is convergence with the European average wage.

Common agricultural policy (joint debate)

Mr President, our livestock farming is not about Kolonaki and Kifissia. Livestock are our villages. It's our homeland. In Macedonia and Thrace thousands of people are afraid. They tremble at the principles of the uninformed and heartless cardigans. They're afraid of losing what they've been fighting for a lifetime, their lives. Sheep and goat pox is becoming a social wound. The sheepfolds are emptying, the rural economy is languishing, so young people are leaving the countryside. A farmer in the Little Monastery died of injustice. In accordance with Regulation (EU) 2020/687, Member States may apply vaccination against killing. So we're talking about a failure of the Ministry. The Commission must ensure Greece’s access to the European Vaccine Bank, technical support for the rapid approval and distribution of vaccines, monitoring compliance with EU law. It is not possible in 2025 for the state's response to be only the extermination of animals. The Commission acknowledges that vaccination strategies exist. Farmers don't ask for alms. They ask for justice, respect and life in their homeland.

After 10 years, time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children (topical debate)

Mr President, the dominant political system is indifferent to illegal immigration. The wealthy NGOs do not want such discussions at all; and, of course, the enriched NGOs do not leave those who reproduce their narrative in this way. The truth is, they've actually succeeded. European societies have become unrecognisable within 30 years. Brussels, Athens, Amsterdam, Berlin; When you walk, you forget where you wanted to go and where you are, they are no longer our cities. In France and Britain, this is over. What has not been achieved through wars has been achieved through human rights. The solution is one: forced returns. Let the various European courts do us a favour and deal with the corruption that is tearing our states apart. For migration issues of all kinds, enough is enough! Deportations now and in every way. No time for delay, deportations, deportations, deportations! And we don't mind the rumored impact on the economy at all. For us, "we want Greece and let us eat stones".

2023 and 2024 reports on Albania (debate)

Madam President, the report on Albania shows that Europe is indifferent to the truth. There is no mention of the huge property problem. Greek minorities find themselves losing their property rights and watching their homes and churches collapse. Always face a wall in front of them. The report congratulates Albania on progress in the judiciary. Funny phrase for the Greek minority. It's an exhibition that doesn't see the mobsters in the room. The Albanian mafia ravages and oppresses from the US to China. We regret that the report does not mention the Greek national minority of Northern Epirus at all. It does not mention a historical, cultural, demographic and political reality wildly and in various ways persecuted, unfortunately under the guidance of Ankara. And, to God, the murdered Konstantinos Katsifas through his tomb awaits vindication. The mafia killers of Katsifas belong to the Albanian parastate. Obviously, we are voting against the report, as well as the unacceptable Skopje report, as both are distorting and highly problematic.

Two years since the devastating Tempi rail accident (debate)

Mr President, I have very little time and importance, so I have no time to respond to what has been said. Today, the relatives of the victims of the Tempi crime are waiting for answers. Answers not given by the corrupt Greek system of cover-up. A system that, instead of seeking justice, threatens those who seek it. First of all, Commissioner, with regard to the actual allegations of cover-up, tell us what the Commission's position is that the Greek authorities have ordered that the point of conflict should be wrongly seized and that biological material should be thrown away even a month and a half after the crime. They went so far as to deny the parents the exhumation to carry out new examinations, while bones were found in wagons ten months after the crime of Tempi. In addition, there are some very important questions. Do you confirm that the way railway safety is supervised in Greece is in breach of Directive (EU) 2016/798? How independent do you consider EODASAAM, whose members are appointed by the supervising minister? What is the Commission’s position on the Kövesi statement that Greece is in breach of Regulation (EU) 2017/1939 by granting immunity to ministers involved in Convention 717? Is it true that the Action Plan was funded by DG REFORM? Something very important: Are trains safe in Greece? As a Commission, do you guarantee the safety of citizens? Why did the Commission delay in acting when it was aware of the violations before the Tempi crime? And finally, were ERA's responsibilities for issuing conditional safety certificates for Hellenic Train investigated? Thank you and I look forward to your answers.

2023 and 2024 reports on Türkiye (debate)

Mr President, there is no room for moderation in the debate on Turkey. On the one hand, it is all of us who see a state with a criminal record instead of history, comparable only to Nazi Germany, a state that leads Islamist terrorist organizations, a state that spreads culture everywhere. All of us who see a system that soils everything it touches with mafia, corruption and smuggling of all kinds. And on the other hand, there are Chamberlain's political children, who are indifferent to whether millions of people in Europe, Asia and Africa are suffering because of the Turkish occupation boot, Turkish colonialism, inhumane Islamo-Nazis. Today, Turkey is the epicenter of the axis of evil, the noose on the neck of the world. We ask all colleagues to be informed about the bloodthirsty genocide of Christians that continues to this day, about the attacks in every neighboring state. Be aware, that's enough for us. Not only should we not finance Turkey, not just should we not put it through the back door in our defence, but it wants at least tough sanctions. He wants the army of all of us on the Turkish border.

Conclusions of the European Council meeting of 20 March 2025 (debate)

Madam President, paragraphs 8 and 9 of the Council conclusions are ridiculous. The whole Middle East laughs at European naivety and hypocrisy. Accepting a five-year transitional jihadist regime is completely ridiculous. We all say it's all about education. Apart from the fact that the cat is a juvenile in the tiles, the al-Julani regime implements and teaches terrorist jihadism in Syria. Children are taught the importance of dying for Allah. Syria becomes a Hamas regime, and Ms Kallas promises EUR 3.4 billion directly to the regime. Mrs Kallas, you are financing a regime of terrorist production on our south-east European borders, and that would be ridiculous if it were not so horrific. We call for the overthrow of the jihadist regime immediately, in order to lead Syria to elections.

White paper on the future of European defence (debate)

Mr. President, I'll give up my country. It is the Greek oath that comes from far away. We don't have eternal friendships. The integrity of our country is an age-old faith. We all have an interest in the electricity interconnection between Greece and Cyprus. The work has to be done. That is why there must be ships for all of us, a deterrent to Turkish invaders who want to strike at a European project of general interest. No other Member State has taken such an aggressive action. Whether we like it or not, there is not a single person in this room who disagrees that NATO is weakening. The gap is filled by the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union in Article 42(7); the mutual defence clause. So we're interested in dual-use infrastructure. We are interested in the possibility of building more ships on our territory. We are all interested in enhanced military mobility to defend the sanctuaries of the Greeks, such as Thrace, Kastellorizo, Kasos and the temporarily enslaved Famagusta. Thank you very much.

Wider comprehensive EU-Middle East Strategy (debate)

Mr President, a number of murderous attacks on priests and prominent Christians in Lebanon and Syria. On individual cases in the US, Russia, China and Egypt, the European Parliament adopted a number of resolutions. We never talk about systematic purge against Christians in the Middle East, as if Christians were not people. Let us look at Israel's solidarity with Jews around the world and rediscover our Christian compass, our lost Christian identity. Hamas knows that the attack on Israeli civilians brings a decisive response from Israel. Accordingly, Turkish jihadists operating in Syria and Lebanon must know that if they touch our Christian brothers, they will receive an overwhelming response. Europe, not the Muslim Brotherhood, must be represented in this Chamber. All Christians, Greek Orthodox, Greek Catholics, Armenians and Maronites should enjoy our protection.

Geopolitical and economic implications for the transatlantic relations under the new Trump administration (debate)

Mr President, Americans and Europeans are cheering 'make our nations great again', rejecting the woke agenda, pro-immigration and anti-national policies. Trump's "America First" policy was not just about the United States. It was a global trumpeting in favor of national sovereignty. Donald Trump challenged the elites, defied the rotten system, and proved that politics must serve people first. His struggle for secure borders and national pride echoes in the hearts of our nations. Europe needs leaders who put above all citizens who defend our culture and who prioritise freedom over anthropophobic and anti-national bureaucrats. Let us be inspired by Trump's vision and build a Europe that is strong and sovereign. It is time for Europe to welcome the time when the voice of nations will be heard loud and clear. Let's make Europe great again.
