What Ondřej spoke about.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues, I'm sure you've all heard or read about Ulysses, a Greek king who took part in the siege of the city of Troy, which lasted for years and was very exhausting. Now, Ulysses is the one who found a solution to this never-ending war. His master plan was to build a big wooden horse which was hollow on the inside and presented to the Trojans as a token of Greek appreciation and surrender. The Greek armies have falsely left the shores of Troy. Yet the big horse which was left behind was too big to fit through the gates of the city, and the Trojans had to dismantle parts of the fortification in order to get the horse through and inside the city walls. After the celebrations of Troy and victory, when the Trojans fell asleep, the hollow horse opened and Greek soldiers climbed out to signal the hidden armies, which then burned Troy to the ground. Now, thousands of years later, we have one of our own who is opening our door to our enemy. Yet it's happening at the same time, when the Czech Foreign Minister, Jan Lipavský, has come up with an initiative to actually ban Russian diplomats from moving freely around the EU. And I regret to say that Viktor Orbán's government is currently letting Vladimir Putin's Trojan horse inside EU walls.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, dear colleagues, I'm very grateful for all the help we've been delivering to Ukraine since February 2022. I've been to Ukraine three times myself since that time, to Khmelnytskyi, to Kyiv, to Kharkiv. I've seen the amount of destruction. I've seen the fates of the people. And it's horrible, in one word. However, although we are sending large amounts of help, we tend to draw red lines to ourselves, and we tend to play by Vladimir Putin's rules, and that is something we need to stop. We need to stop drawing these red lines to ourselves and stop pretending that talking about peace is something forbidden. We must lift absurd restrictions that we've imposed on ourselves and the Ukrainians as well. We must let the Ukrainians shoot with whatever they need, whenever they need and wherever they need. They need our weapons for defence, not for parades.
