What Filip spoke about.

Mr President, you have launched a self-destructive strategy on Europe's energy economy and industry, with CBAM, ETS, ELV, ESG and other absurd acronyms. And now you take it to an extreme. You want central and eastern Europe to carry the bad karma of your colonial past and your failed social policies: 'Wir schaffen das.' In this way, you will break the very soul of Europe. As Gabriel Attal said about the migration pact, the West had convinced eastern countries to accept migrants or to contribute financially to the management of migration. But believe me, the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and others without colonial guilt or the burden of World War II will never accept the relocation of your migrants to our lands.

Madam President, let me tell you a little story. The European Union puts billion-euro fines on its own factories for producing CO2. The EU produces only about 6 % to 8 % of global emissions, yet the world's emissions keep rising. To make this look fairer, the CBAM was introduced, but the reality is different. In the end, we are punishing ourselves: production and investment just leave the European market. Only the biggest players with armies of officers can still afford to trade with the EU. And we believe this will change the climate. It will not. The planet is not cooling anyway. European companies go bankrupt, consumers pay more and Europe is simply turning into a green open-air museum. If you are serious about your favourite world competitiveness, I have one solution for you: cancel all emission targets, taxes and tariffs. Cancel the Green Deal!

Mr President, Everyone is talking about clean technology, but what Europe really needs is clean thinking – we must not lose common sense. We need innovation and freedom to choose – not bands, not green ideology. Brussels keeps imposing more rules completely detached from reality. Why are we killing our own industries? It is our workers and our companies that are paying the price. The Green Deal is an economic death sentence. It is not green leadership, it is strategic suicide. Germany is still bleeding from Merkel's legacy, and Ursula von der Leyen is finishing the job. Yesterday, she called all those who oppose her extremists and pro-Russian. Only history will judge who really damaged Europe.

Madam President, the European Commission has listened to our warnings about the fleet emissions fines on European car manufacturers, and I thank the Commission for it. It's a small but important change, because now they will have more time to comply with the targets, but we must stop the obsession with emissions and cancel these fines completely. We need to reduce or eliminate green regulations – for example, the new proposal on end‑of‑life vehicles – which do not help save the environment. They are simply taxes that make everything – not only cars – more expensive for our citizens. Tens of thousands of workers have already lost their jobs because our industry, especially the car industry, is not competitive against Asia and the United States. The utopia of the Green Deal was created thanks to von der Leyen and Timmermans' manipulation and corruption.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, let me share some important numbers that everyone should hear. Only 3.5 % of all CO2 on planet comes from human activity. From this small amount, Europe produces just 8 %, and from Europe's share, only 20 % comes from transport, and an even smaller part comes from making new cars. So think about this: when we put heavy costs on our citizens, when we stop making cars here, when we force our factories to buy expensive permits to operate, what do we actually achieve? For every factory we close in Europe, two new ones open in Asia, usually ones that pollute much more than ours did. While Donald Trump is protecting the USA, its industry and workers, also through dismissing the Paris Agreement, Ursula von der Leyen and her kind keep destroying our competitiveness with each new regulation and environmental fantasy. There are 1.5 billion cars in the world. If we stop making traditional cars in Europe, it will change nothing for the global picture. We cannot achieve zero emissions. It's impossible. We cannot have production without any emissions, transport without any emissions or life without any emissions. And even if all of Europe had zero emissions, it would not change the world's weather, or climate, if you want. I hope these next five years will be the last where we follow the Soviet-style central planning that is destroying our industry. The result of your policies are already devastating, forcing our companies out of global markets and making European products uncompetitive. History will judge this Commission's actions just as it judged those who weakened Europe before. We must return to protecting our production, our workers and our future.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the Green Deal is hurting the European industry. The automotive industry in the EU is in the worst condition in history. Our car industry is 7 % of EU GDP and gives 13.8 million jobs. The Green Deal puts all of this at risk. Every year we spend EUR 60 billion on R&D; we are a global automotive powerhouse. Now we might end up buying batteries from China. We had a EUR 74 billion trade surplus. Now we might buy more from Asia. This destroys our economy. Provisions like the 2025 fleet emissions target kill our industry. We risk losing production of 2 million profitable cars or paying around EUR 15 billion in fines, simply because people don't want to buy electric vehicles. This is crazy. For every factory we close, two open in China. This really won't change the global climate. Let's stop destroying the EU car industry. Let's stop destroying ourselves. Let's stop destroying our common future.
