Harnessing the potential of a competitive and sustainable EU Bioeconomy Strategy for EU strategic autonomy (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, last March the Council recognised the bioeconomy as a lever for industrial sovereignty, ecological transition and competitiveness. Now instructs states to take advantage of their abundant agricultural and forestry resources and new European instruments, including the industrial accelerator and the Biotechnology Regulation. In France, the bioeconomy represents 2 million …

The Union’s preparedness for and response to health emergencies: the case of the MV Hondius and the hantavirus warning (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, the episode of MV Hondius reminds us that we are never sufficiently prepared for health threats, although we are learning from previous episodes. First of all, the joint work undertaken between national and European authorities to facilitate the evacuation of persons on board should be commended. The fact that States have applied different quarantine protocols for their…

Women’s entrepreneurship in rural and island areas and outermost regions (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, in rural metropolitan areas as well as in the overseas territories, women ensure the continuity of entire sectors of economic activity, but they may face social isolation or insufficient access to support and information networks. Unfortunately, national bureaucracy and European standards do not help. They are above ground and limit their full participation in econom…

Prevention and treatment of obesity (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, obesity is a scourge that causes many other diseases such as diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular disease and mental health. Almost 25% of Europeans are affected. A real societal problem that will not be solved by using the new weight-loss drug that addresses the consequences, but not the causes. There is an urgent need to reduce the amount of fat and s…

Framework for strengthening the availability and security of supply of critical medicinal products as well as the availability of, and accessibility of, medicinal products of common interest (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, with this regulation the Commission has taken stock of our vulnerabilities in the field of medicines. This is by no means the only area. Our dependence on imports – made possible, in particular, by decades of deindustrialisation and free competition – can also lead to serious shortages in the event of a new health crisis. The text contains good …

Impact of the geopolitical situation on European patients and their access to medicines (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, in 2023, medicines accounted for 60% of pharmaceutical expenditure and 13% of health expenditure in the European Union. It is a strategic sector in an ageing continent, with health systems weakened by COVID-19 and declining public funding. The aggressive US strategy, which is bearing fruit there, is leading us towards a price war that will affect access to medicines on …

Outcome of the UN Climate Change Conference - Belém (COP30) (debate)
Mr President, more than 25 years of COP for a world that emits more and more CO2. What a failure! Our countries get lost in commitments they can't keep: climate neutrality, the exit from fossil fuels, but also financial flows. Already at COP29, climate finance had been at the heart of the negotiations. The road map, from Baku to Belém, estimates the cost of financing the energy transition of the g…

Breast cancer: the importance of screening (debate)
Madam President, in France, breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death among women, with 12,000 deaths per year. It is also the most common cancer. Detected at an early stage, it can be cured in nine out of ten cases with less heavy treatments. While there are national plans that encourage women over the age of 50 to get tested every two years, breast cancer is increasingly affecting young…

World Mental Health Day - addressing the socio-economic factors (debate)
Mr President, it is well known that: From education to transport to hospitals, mental disorders are a major public health problem. One in four French people is affected, and this figure has accelerated significantly since the COVID-19 pandemic. France has more than 9,000 suicides per year, one of the highest rates in Europe, and mental illnesses are now the leading cause of chronic conditions ahea…

Summer of heatwaves in the EU: addressing the causes and providing adequate housing and health policies to address record-breaking temperatures (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, a study recently published in Nature has mapped the heat mortality of European cities by 2050, if nothing is done. The figures speak for themselves: more than 25 deaths per 100,000 inhabitants in some major cities in the south, but also sharp increases in the north. According to experts, Europe is warming twice as fast as the global average for sev…

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism: simplification and strengthening (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, everyone knows that the measures proposed here are clearly insufficient. We have always defended the idea of a carbon tax at Europe's borders, but never in this form. It was necessary to succeed in the tour de force to make believe in a protectionist tool finally, when, by rejection of this same protectionism, one imposes only an environmental m…

Amending Regulation (EU) 2023/956 as regards simplifying and strengthening the carbon border adjustment mechanism (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, it is clear that we welcome any simplification of the carbon border adjustment mechanism. However, the measures proposed are far from satisfactory and it is still necessary to ensure that the real expected gains for VSEs and SMEs are firmly motivated by the impact assessment. We must go beyond: calculate the carbon footprint based on the average of the country and not t…

European Action Plan on Rare Diseases (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, there are currently 7 000 rare diseases identified in Europe, affecting 36 million people. These diseases are chronic, debilitating or even life-threatening, and most are not subject to specific treatments. As for the costs of available therapies, they are exorbitant. In Europe, the average time to diagnose a rare disease is almost five years. The solutions are known: e…

Presentation of the proposal on Critical Medicines Act (CMA) (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen, our healthcare system is in crisis, our hospitals and pharmacies are short of medicines. Decades of deindustrialisation and import dependency, notably from China and India: This is where free competition and the search for the least cost lead us. The Critical Medicines Act is based on a technocratic and centralised approach. Pooling stocks at Eu…

Supporting the EU’s most vulnerable regions against devastating effects of climate change, such as the recent cyclone hitting La Réunion (debate)
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the second natural disaster in two months has hit French territory. After Mayotte, the passage of Cyclone Garance, on February 28, 2025, revealed the vulnerability of Reunion to climatic hazards. With gusts of up to 230 km/h at Piton Sainte-Rose, it caused the death of five people and significant material damage, in the order of hundreds of millions of euros: 16…

The need to address urgent labour shortages and ensure quality jobs in the health care sector (debate)
Mr President, Madam Vice-President, ladies and gentlemen, our hospitals are running out of breath: 3.5 billion deficit for French public hospitals. Our caregivers are exhausted and our fellow citizens struggle to access quality care. The crisis in our health care system is the result of disastrous policy choices: bed closures, stifling bureaucracy, insufficient wages and lack of recognition for ou…

The situation in Mayotte following the devastating cyclone Chido and the need for solidarity (debate)
Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, the passage of Cyclone Chido in Mayotte has devastated this French territory, leaving our compatriots bereaved, homeless, without water and essential services. This tragedy once again highlights the vulnerability of our outermost regions to natural disasters, in a context already marked by structural fragilities. Faced with this tragic situation, the European…

Recommendation on smoke- and aerosol-free environments (debate)
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, tomorrow we will be voting on a resolution to create smoke-free and aerosol-free environments. If the objective of protecting public health, especially that of children and vulnerable people, is laudable and shared by all, this text goes too far. It is part of the logic of an overwhelming Europe that risks encroaching once again on the competences of the Member …
