Corrupt large-scale sale of Schengen visas (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, corruption in the administration and fraud in residence permits are nuisances that must be tackled with the utmost firmness. You refer to the case of Poland, which you systematically have in the viewfinder, whatever it does. This questioning, which occurs opportunely two weeks before the Polish elections, openly targets the Polish government, which has neverthel…

Single market emergency instrument (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the European Union’s march towards federalism is continuing and it is taking advantage of the crises to acquire new powers. Moreover, everything is a pretext for grabbing full powers. These powers, which have never been provided for in the Treaties, are obviously worrying, as Eurocrats may not hesitate to declare that their political adversaries represent a t…

European Defence Industry Reinforcement through common Procurement Act (EDIRPA) (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the sovereignty of France, like that of nations, is not negotiable. Although the European EDIRPA instrument, which is a joint weapons procurement system, remains for the moment limited in scope and financial volume, it nevertheless creates a perspective that we cannot accept. The French defence industry, its patents, the Rafale, the Leclerc tank, our nuclear …

The need for EU action on search and rescue in the Mediterranean (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, this debate today on the alleged need to collect migrants at sea, held some time after the adoption of the disastrous Pact on Immigration, demonstrates the immigrationist obsession of the political majority in this European Parliament. There is no obligation to fetch ships that are not in perdition and, when they are in perdition, there is no obligation to br…

2022 Report on Bosnia and Herzegovina (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, today we are discussing the European Parliament's opinion on Bosnia. This opinion slavishly mirrors that of the European Commission and becomes more caricatural every year. Bosnia and Herzegovina, an unlikely state, reflects all the dangerous fantasies of the European Union. You, the majority of this European Parliament, sing the praises of a multiculturalism…

Geographical Indications for wine, spirit drinks and agricultural products (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, as a Frenchman, we are, perhaps more than all, particularly attached to the principle of controlled and protected designations. As you know, France is a pioneer on this issue, creating controlled designations of origin in 1935. Geographical indications must be a bulwark against the dominance of foreign brands, whose EU free trade agreements promote unfair com…

Externalising asylum applications and making funding to third countries conditional on the implementation of return agreements (topical debate)

Madam President, finally, a debate on immigration, which Mrs Keller, or Mrs L’clair, does not displease, since she has already disappeared from the Chamber. Finally, a debate that raises relevant questions because the externalisation of asylum applications is finally mentioned. It has been completely logical for us for a long time. With a 50% increase in asylum applications in 2022, almost one mil…

2022 Report on Kosovo (debate)

Madam President, the forced integration of Kosovo into the European Union is a disaster that has already cost European taxpayers EUR 1.2 billion over the past 15 years. You are constantly gargling with your so-called values of the European Union, values that we know are only worth when it suits you. For example, the European Union, by order of Washington, has allowed Kosovo and Metohija to be torn…

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

Mr President, "when China wakes up, the whole world will tremble," Napoleon said. China has awakened. The world is trembling. Emmanuel Macron and Ursula von der Leyen both went to try to soften the Chinese president and suffered only humiliations. There is no need to dwell on Macron, whose speech has no value and who only says what his audience of the day wants to hear. But the EU as a whole has n…

Madam President, for the greater good of Europeans, the green ideology, which is very powerful in Brussels, has just suffered a major setback. Indeed, Germany, by refusing at the last moment to endorse the decision to ban the sale of new thermal vehicles in the European Union from 2035, together with Italy, Poland and Bulgaria, makes it possible to prevent the suicide of our now high-performing au…

Question Time (Commission) - Strengthened EU enlargement policy to the Western Balkans

Commissioner, EU resolutions and declarations consistently call for the accession of Balkan countries to the European Union, including the territory of Kosovo. In line with this wish, the European Council granted Bosnia and Herzegovina official candidate status on 15 December 2022. This poses a twofold problem. On the one hand, with regard to Bosnia-Herzegovina, one of its two components, the Bosn…

Madam President, there are situations where humanitarian aid, where the salvation of the people must take precedence over any other political or diplomatic consideration. The EU keeps saying this when it comes to migrants, but it is hypocritically abandoning its main principles when it comes to Syria. An earthquake hit it hard.

For us, the war in Ukraine is a tragedy that must be brought to an end as soon as possible through negotiation. For you, this is an opportunity to go to war. This is hardly believable.
