Need for an adaptation of the EU legal framework on sustainable biofuels (debate)

Mr President, as the price of fuel explodes and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz reveals that Europe cannot continue on the path of energy dependence, now is the time for action. We have at our disposal reliable and low-carbon energy that has, in addition, the merit of supporting agricultural incomes while contributing to our sovereignty: biofuels. Yes, bioethanol is a cheap and available alte…

International Day of Education, fighting inequalities in access to education (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, when we talk about unequal access to education, we spontaneously think of rural areas that are isolated or prone to social difficulties. But this must not make us look away from the essential. Today, some families who can afford it are fleeing public school to private education and trying to keep their children safe, while others are reportedly doomed to stud…

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, where did the Christmas crèches go? Are we now ashamed of our history to the point of having to hide it, relegate it to a corner of our Christmas markets? In France, nurseries are disappearing: in the cities of the eco-bobos. Some are concealed, as if they had become embarrassing, while others are ransacked, as in Amiens. Worse: In Brussels, a nursery with facel…

Development of an industry for sustainable aviation and maritime fuel in Europe (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Brussels claims to make Europe fly higher. Yet our industry is in free fall. By 2050, EU airports will have to source at least 70% of sustainable fuel. As usual, the Commission persists in its dream of becoming a power by the norm, but forgets the main one: industrial strategy. With sustainable fuels three times more expensive than kerosene, only massive product…

Mr President, a few days ago, in Lille, two days before his birthday, Mathis lost his life, knocked down by a multi-recurrence driver drugged with nitrous oxide who refused to comply. Not surprisingly, these canisters can be seen everywhere, littering the streets of Brussels, Paris or Berlin. It can even be purchased in stores as easily as a baguette of bread. Yet hilarious gas is indeed a new dru…

Conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction (debate)

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, under the green veneer of ecological virtue, this BBNJ directive is a new illustration of Brussels' technocratic drift. We are being told to transpose an international treaty negotiated sovereignly by the States, but the Commission is taking the opportunity to extend its hold on the high seas and, worse still, on our own national waters. Concretely, this text…

Key objectives for the CITES COP20 meeting in Uzbekistan (debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, as the Food and Agriculture Organisation points out, the European Union remains one of the main markets and transit points for global wildlife trafficking. This illegal trade destroys entire ecosystems while fuelling international crime. Signed in 1973, CITES has made previously flourishing businesses illegal. Thousands of species have been saved, but European l…

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, this week we are going to vote for the latest madness "made in Brussels". With the road safety package, it would seem to be attending the Lépine contest of the worst ideas to annoy motorists. Never lacking in imagination to achieve this, the Commission now wants the end of the life permit and the European forfeiture of the permit. If this text passes, every f…

Chemicals (joint debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, once again we are examining a text which, under the guise of transparency and public health, increasingly centralises power in Brussels to the detriment of nations and the competitiveness of our businesses. With this regulation, we are promised a simpler, clearer and more effective evaluation of chemicals. But let's be honest, this is a new gas plant imagined by…

Europe’s automotive future – reversing the ban on the sale of combustion cars in the EU (topical debate)

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen of the technocrats, what have motorists done to you so that you will be so hard on them? Even Germany is sounding the alarm and Chancellor Merz has just asked to reconsider the end of the combustion engines in 2035. This is obviously good news, as it is notorious that with Mme von der Leyen, when Berlin speaks, the Commission executes. But at what price? Thousand…

Mr President, 'Beetroot, a new wealth for France': With these visionary words, Napoleon enabled Europe to ensure its full food sovereignty.

While the European market is the only one that has not returned to its pre-Covid level, Brussels continues to impose unrealistic standards. Now is the turn of vehicle circularity and recycling, another nightmare for European car manufacturers. By requiring 25% recycled plastic for a new vehicle an…

Madam President, did the European Union want to be an ecological model? It is becoming an industrial cemetery...

Ultimately, this ecological impasse worsens our carbon footprint, as we have never imported more products from the most polluting countries. Moreove…

Madam President, in France, on the 1ster Last January, the cleaver fell: 11 million motorists are excluded from major cities because of low-emission zones, which are also found elsewhere in Europe. This new social segregation punishes those who do not have the means to invest in an electric vehicle and yet need this means of transport to get around. After moving the working classes further and fur…
