Mr President, Commissioner, one question: Does Donald Trump have your phone? You call them what you call the FIFA president? I don't know, tell us what those conversations are like. Does Donald Trump call on you to support genocide, to support the illegal occupation of the West Bank? Do you call them when they are going to burn children alive or do you just call them to be quiet and pay for their …

Mr President, imagine any of you earning a million euros every month since you were born and not spending anything on rent or food, on anything. Well, they would need to work 83,000 years (there were mammoths on Earth that time) to accumulate the fortunes of the seventeen billionaires who have accompanied Trump to China. Of course: on the table, not a single woman. I don't know if they get it, but…

Have you heard Judge David Maman, a gender-based violence judge who says many advantages are given to women for reporting? For example, legal ai…
