ES Speech

Systematic repression of human rights in Iran, notably the cases of Pakhshan Azizi and Wrisha Moradi, and the taking of EU citizens as hostages

Watch

Madam President, Commission, ladies and gentlemen, more than a thousand executions have been carried out in Iran in 2024, including 34 women. It is no coincidence that it is a country where a regime of radical Islamism prevails, whose laws already violate the human rights and dignity of people, especially women. Iran's history has long been marked by major massacres. The police of the terrorist re…

ES Speech

Addressing EU demographic challenges: towards the implementation of the 2023 Demography Toolbox (debate)

Watch

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the demographic crisis is yet another symptom of the social and cultural depression we are suffering. An existential pessimism promoted, undoubtedly, by the ideological lines that have been tried to impose from the international institutions in recent years; Among them, a radical feminism that defies a natural order, confronts man and woman, denies motherhood, p…

ES Speech

Recommendation to the Council on the EU priorities for the 69th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women - EU priorities for the 69th session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women (joint debate - EU priorities for the upcoming session of the UN Commission on the Status of Women)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, Saint John Paul II already predicted that the success of this conference depended on offering a vision of women's true dignity and aspirations. Then there was talk of women and girls. It wasn't questioned who we are, like today. There was talk of equality between women and men, not gender. It defended the empowerment of the role of women in society…

ES Speech

Need to update the European strategy for the rights of persons with disabilities (debate)

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, our priority, the priority of our society ahead of others, as pushed in this House as the green or digital transition, should be to address disability. But we limit ourselves to these debates. The first thing should be to offer minimums to those living with a disability and their families: early care, education, removal of barriers, job opportunities, technol…

ES Speech

The increasing and systematic repression of women in Iran

Watch

Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the application of the sharia – the basis of the Islamist regime in Iran – is a reality that some here dare not condemn, even leaving it out of the text. Ignoring the role of the sharia distorts the root causes of brutality against women in Iran. I therefore ask you to support the amendment by the Patriots for Europe Group in this regard. Recogn…

ES Speech

Rise of energy prices and fighting energy poverty (debate)

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, energy poverty is a consequence of the policies of this House, supported by many of you, which have made us dependent on third parties or on non-continuous sources. It is a shame that we repeat a presidency of the Commission with an ideological line that has led to misery for families and businesses and that, as you announced today, you will maintain. It is o…

Urgent need to tackle the gender pay gap (debate)

ES Speech

International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, today the women of Europe live in fear. It is dramatic an aggression in an environment of trust, as it is not able to live with tranquility in the public space. I want to believe that we are all doing everything we can to prevent this from happening, but, ladies and gentlemen, the reality is that it is not being successful. In Spain, for example, t…

ES Speech

The devastating floods in Spain, the urgent need to support the victims, to improve preparedness and to fight the climate crisis (debate)

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, one, two, three, four days without help. Caught by more than two meters of water on the way home. Crucial hours to have been able to save completely wasted lives. In the face of this, there is no justification. There isn't. It is petty that Mr. Sanchez should say to them: If they want help, ask for it. It was clear that help was needed. It was clear that imme…

ES Speech

Need to strengthen rail travel and the railway sector in Europe (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, strengthening the rail sector in Europe. In Spain we did not even get it to work; the current management of the government is disastrous. Renfe, our main operator, has left behind its prestige and is now synonymous with chaos and inefficiency and even danger to people. Last week a train derailed in Madrid and no one has taken responsibility. There …

ES Question

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

You said men can decide to do whatever they want. I don't think that's entirely true, do you? If a woman makes the decision to go ahead with her pregnancy and have that baby – something that happens and I agree with that – the father has an obligation to take care of the baby. So, if we assume the obligation of the father to take care of that baby, why do you think that he does not have to have an…

ES Question

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

For my part, I would like to know what your position is on abortion. Would you limit it to cases where the woman's life is at risk or do you talk about an abortion in other situations? In what cases, for example? What stadiums? What assumptions? Because I think it is manipulated here by talking about situations where women's lives could be at risk, which, as we have said, is a completely different…

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

I start by thanking my colleagues, because you are giving me an opportunity to exchange views with you on a topic that you know I am very concerned about: Thank you for this opportunity. Do you realize, Irene, the social impact of abortion legislation like the one that exists in Spain? What message are we conveying to society, to children, to women, when we point to fertility as a problem, when we…

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

When a woman's life is at stake, no one questions that there is a decision in that regard. I don't know exactly all the details of what happened there. But when there is a risk to a woman's life, Polish law provides for such a situation. If you would like to collaborate with medical professionals, who are tried to be set aside, who are not even given the freedom of conscience... In hospitals, medi…

ES Answer

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

I think a woman's right is to be protected in her pregnancy, to be able to welcome her baby. We know that where there are permissive legislations, where there is the simple proposal of abortion, the woman feels pushed to abort. I do not see you concerned about this situation of women, which is a real discrimination: that a woman cannot take her children because of a complicated economic situation …

ES Speech

Findings of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women on Poland's abortion law (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the conclusions of the United Nations regarding Poland and its legislation on abortion are very worrying. They represent a clear interference in the sovereignty of a country to impose an agenda that violates the most fundamental right: the right to life. There is no right to abortion. They invoked a 1979 convention on discrimination against women t…

ES Speech

World Mental Health Day - need for a comprehensive EU strategy on mental health (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner Schinas, ladies and gentlemen, 11 million children and adolescents suffer from mental health problems in the European Union. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death between the ages of 15 and 29. It's very worrying. What are we doing wrong? Why are our young people losing the illusion for life and suffering? We are facing many changes that can affect us. Family, wh…

ES Speech

The rise of religious intolerance in Europe (continuation of debate)

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, I understand that abortion harms women and that women should receive support and alternatives. But here it has been said that maintaining a pro-life stance is intolerable and that such speeches should not be allowed. My way of thinking is not accepted in this House. Moreover, they point to all those who think like me as aggressors of human rights. Many of you…

ES Speech

Iraq, notably the situation of women’s rights and the recent proposal to amend the Personal Status Law

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, today we are concerned about the women of Iraq; at the previous plenary session, those of Afghanistan; And Iran, how are the women there in Iran? What or who legitimizes assaults on women? Who forces them to cover their body and face? Who forces girls to marry at age nine? We all know that. Ladies and gentlemen, in Iraq, in 2021, 22% of unregistered marriages…

ES Speech

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, last Thursday, the CUP registered in Catalonia a proposal for a law on the effectiveness of the right to abortion that proposes to eliminate the deadlines – that is, that it be possible to have an abortion at any time –, to allow 12-year-old girls to have an abortion without their parents’ consent and to prohibit the conscientious objection of doctors and nur…

ES Speech

The deteriorating situation of women in Afghanistan due to the recent adoption of the law on the “Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice”

Watch

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Commissioner, I thank the Afghan women who have accompanied us and courageously offered us their testimony: We're with you. The recently adopted law on the prevention of vice in Afghanistan blatantly violates women's most basic human rights, attacks their dignity and seeks to alienate them from society. We all agree on this, don't we? However, it is incomprehens…

ES Speech

EU response to the Mpox outbreak and the need for continuous action (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, the Commission can continue to applaud itself as much as it wants for the management of COVID-19 and for vaccines, but the reality is that if they take to the streets they will see how people have lost confidence in the institutions. We would all like to forget what we experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic, but we cannot. We must not let the sam…

ES Speech

The future of European competitiveness (debate)

Watch

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, after our insistence on the previous mandate, the obvious is now recognised: the policies imposed by the European Union have led to the paralysis and destruction of businesses and jobs. It is impossible to create initiatives, we are no longer a reference in innovation. That's your responsibility. Those who survive today do so by falling victim to a system of …

ES Speech

La Hulpe declaration on the future of social Europe (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, at our interparliamentary meeting in February, the Belgian Presidency itself announced that Europe was going to suffer an economic one with serious social consequences. The governor of the Central Bank said verbatim that greening would reduce our growth potential, put us at a disadvantage, that there would be many losers and that it was not known h…

ES Speech

Combating violence against women and domestic violence (debate)

Watch

Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, it is dramatic when violence breaks into the home and into relationships of supposed trust. The Internet also exposes us to risks of aggression that should not go unpunished. We must all combat and end domestic violence and violence against women. However, we see that women's safety is increasingly threatened by uncontrolled immigration. Fear alrea…
