Speeches

Madam President, tomorrow marks the seventh anniversary of the shameful and disgraceful Prespa Agreement, signed by Tsipras and Kammenos hand in hand. As a proud Macedonian, I have felt no greater shame than the recognition of Macedonian language and ethnicity among Skopje – something that even Bulgaria has never accepted. For seven years now, we have been permissively and uncomplainingly watching Skopje’s constant provocations, violating the agreement at every level – political, athletic and historical. Kyriakos Mitsotakis had publicly pledged that if the agreements were not respected, he would abolish it. Six years now, not a single complaint, not a single word. Silence from Mr. Dendias. And Adonis Georgiadis, who once declared that he would never call it "North Macedonia", today calls it only that. I give my word, therefore, to the proud Macedonians, that when we are given the power, we will do everything to abolish this nationally humiliating agreement. Macedonia is one and it is Greek.

Madam President, Erdoğan stepped on the Occupied Territories as a brazen intruder. He went on the bloody soil, the ruins of the houses that his army destroyed and the tombs of the Cypriots who murdered and disappeared his ancestors. Turkey is therefore not seeking membership; It requires submission. Erdoğan is building mosques on destroyed schools. He only wants to conquer as another Sultan what he can most. And what does the European Union do? Instead of stopping him, as he should, he gives him money, equipment and commitments for the future. In a murderous state that denies even today the genocide of Pontians, Armenians and the thousands of murders of Greeks and Cypriots. In response to the Russian invasion, the European Union has reacted and supported Ukraine in a thousand ways. While he is a member of Cyprus, he leaves it to God's mercy. So why double standards in both cases of invasion? Unfortunately, because even some people in here are nothing more than Sultan's son-of-a-bitch. There has never been any discussion of the accession of the murderous state to the European Union.

Mr President, are you forgetting that we are talking about an enemy of the European Union? What does the President of the United States have to say about his intention to Islamize Europe? A country that, while essentially ruled by a dictator, we call democracy? A Turkey that threatens Greece with casus belli if it exercises its sovereign rights? A kidnapping-murdering state of half of Cyprus – while Cyprus is a member of the European Union – that refuses to recognise the invasion? A Turkey that just six years ago attacked Greece with hybrid warfare, armed with illegal immigrants? An Erdoğan who in his public speeches says that they will come at night to take the Aegean? Are you talking about this country? So there should be no debate about it at all. As long as our Cyprus is occupied, our Greece is openly threatened and Turkey itself is a semi-dictatorial regime, even the thought of joining – not in 2025 but in 3025 – must be forbidden. I understand the money's a lot for some people in here, but that's the truth. Turkey is not an ally. He's a wolf in sheep's clothing who lives off invasions, extortion, and innocent blood. It does not belong to Europe. It belongs to the darkness that tries to bring religion and fear back with a weapon. Turkey is the enemy of everyone in the European Union and that is the only way to deal with it. And, as far as I'm concerned, I swear that's all I'm gonna do.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, for 51 years 38 % – the richest and most fertile part of Cyprus – have been under Turkish occupation. The failed proposal of the Bizonal Bicommunal Federation rejected with a thunderous "no" by the Cypriot people in 2004, returns to the forefront again in 2025 in an even worse form. Because now there is an attempt to equate the president of the legitimate Republic of Cyprus with the inaugurated puppet of Ankara. From where to where? The so-called confidence-building measures and the opening of barricades functioned as a Trojan Horse, giving economic breath to the Turkish occupation regime, while the appetite of Turkey, which is now openly asking for a two-state solution, was opened. Cyprus needs support and solidarity, not solutions that catalyze the Republic of Cyprus and legitimize the invaders in an indirect or direct way. No recognition of the pseudo-state. Turkey should be condemned by the European Union for the illegal invasion and the occupying troops should withdraw from the sacred lands of Cyprus. The European Union will prove to be a true union when the Cypriot and Greek flags gaze at Famagusta.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, there can be no debate whatsoever on a common foreign policy and, of course, on security and defence policy unless our basic differences are cleared up. Is Turkey a friend or an enemy of the European Union? For us there is no dilemma, because very simply and clearly it is an enemy of my country but also of the European Union, especially when it illegally occupies 38% of Cyprus for 51 years. Do we all agree on that? How, then, will there be a single security policy if the borders of the European Union are not clarified? That is, if there is a hot episode of Greece-Turkey or Turkey-Cyprus, for example, will the European army intervene in favour of Greece or Cyprus, without even asterisks? The weapon systems of a European army should be ensured to be built exclusively within the European Union, with the participation of all Member States. And of course Turkey should be excluded from any European program. If these are not guaranteed as minimum requirements, then this debate here really does not make the slightest sense. Cyprus is Greece and the borders of Greece are the southernmost tip of the European Union. Simple, simple and clear.

It's really embarrassing to confuse that! It's really shameful of you! This pseudo-dilemma that you are putting forward is a real disgrace just to mention it. Nothing to do with each other. But whoever violates, sir, the door of your house enters prison. We're not even talking about prisons here. Here we are talking about closed centers from where they will have to leave, to return back to their countries. That you make this identification and that you allowed them to enter our countries, ghettoize them and rape them, is your responsibility, not ours. We never say that.

Madam President, Commissioner, illegal immigration is a well-established business for its orchestrators to treasure and for Europe to be Islamised. With the blessings of Germany and France, you have filled our countries with illegal immigrants. We pay Islam, which hates us, from our shortfall, to turn our cities into ghettos, to rape and murder before our eyes in the name of Allah. We are filled with Mahmoud and Mohammed in a Europe that has become unrecognizable. There are solutions. Strengthen by all means the countries that are the first gateway, such as my homeland Greece, but also Italy and Spain. Those who illegally invade European territory should be entitled neither to an allowance nor to asylum. They must be arrested, their mobile phones confiscated, transported to closed centres, to uninhabited islands and from there deported to their country or by interstate agreements to countries outside the European Union. Stop subsidizing their stay and subsidize their deportation. Our beacon must be the policies of Hungary and Poland, which instead of adopting, you are fighting them so that Islam will not be saddened. Anyone who violates the borders of a country is like violating the door of our home. Illegal immigration is Europe's cancer and you treat it with aspirin. So start mass deportations yesterday. There's money, there's airports, there's detention centers. Gather them in detention centres and send them away before Europe dies. We want our country, our identity and our values back. And if you supposedly sensitive socialists are looking for racists, look at your mirrors. You are the biggest racists against Europeans.

Madam President, thank you. I take a position on the application of the Regulation on the basis of Articles 10 and 164. After the last Conference of Presidents, which adopted the agenda, the ECR MEP, Mr. Frangos, with an official announcement and the ECR logo on it, spread fake news to the Greek citizens, that this Plenary is competent to investigate the Tempi railway accident, vilifying both the Patriots and me personally, that we allegedly prevented the investigation of the crime. We all know, ladies and gentlemen, that this is a vulgar slander against all of us. I am sure that the ECR will condemn the lies of Mr Frangos, who not only tried to deceive the Greeks, with the sole purpose of vilifying his homeland, but also of stepping on the dead, going hand in hand with the leftists. Mr. Franco, enjoy your patriotism. You deliberately slandered the institutions you are supposed to serve. And, dear ECR, rejoice in your member still hiding instead of apologizing. In this plenary session, serious patriots have a sacred duty to protect both our institutions and our homelands. Members of the European Parliament and Franco-type attitudes are not tolerated.

Mr. President, seriously, ladies and gentlemen? Has the Right Destroyed the Industry? The right idolized Greta Thunberg? Did the right impose green energy at the expense of industry that destroyed the competitiveness of the European Union? Or the socialist governments that have ruled the European Union for fifty years? France, Italy, Germany, Spain, but also my country, Greece, were destroyed by irreconcilable socialist policies. And do you, the destroyers of Europe, have the audacity today to point the finger at us that the conservatives are a threat to Europe? I'm laughing. I'm really laughing. As Margaret Thatcher wisely said, the problem with socialism is that it ends when other people's money runs out. So let go of the ghosts about the so-called far right and implement liberal economic policies. Reduce taxes, increase competitiveness, restore plastic straws, leave lignite alone, invest in industry and above all accept reality. You have failed. Follow what we tell you before it's too late, because we are tomorrow and you are yesterday.

Madam President, we are coming here today to talk about disinformation and the spread of fake news on social media, in case they affect the elections in the European Union. Are we serious? Are we going to talk about it while we avoid seeing the elephant in the room? And the elephant in the room is that huge corporate platforms censor every voice of reason that tries to tell the truth. Organized minorities, such as LGBTIQ, Gypsies or obsessive leftists, by making organized reports manage to silence the different point of view. Personally, they have closed my tiktok account, dropped my facebook and caused me problems on all social networks. The same naturally happens in all countries, to those who dare to express their opinion on the capture of the European Union by illegal immigrants and how this should stop. That is, it happens to those who react to the paranoia of professional rights-holders, to those who fight open borders and an Islamized Europe. And instead of dealing with how to protect freedom of speech and expression, which is the first issue for any democracy, we are sitting and dealing with left-wing obsessive nonsense that once again wants to convince us that citizens are not indignant at accuracy, are not indignant at illegal immigration, crime, bureaucracy, which afflict the European Union, but vote supposedly more right-wing because it says they are misinformed. Your fairy tale is good, but it doesn't have a dragon. As long as the European Union continues to lead to self-destruction, we who want a Europe of Nations, a Christian Europe, a Europe of family, man and woman, will sweep through the elections in every country and that is our only hope.

Madam President, I am ashamed, sad and angry that, instead of discussing the real problems of the European Union, we are sitting around talking about the alleged oppression of the LGBTIQ community. Kids are kids. Existing legislation on gender transitions and other such nonsense before they reach adulthood is unacceptable. It is unacceptable that there are countries that have been teaching the lies of the 52 sexes since elementary school. It is also unacceptable to tell drag queens fairy tales to our children in kindergartens. There are two sexes: the male and the female. Perfect, dash, paragraph. Anyone who wants to, after coming of age, can look for anything they want. But we will not deprive them of their childhood innocence for the LGBTQ community to rejoice in. Under no circumstances. It is outrageous, then, that countries such as Bulgaria and Hungary, which above all protect children's rights, are today being accused of alleged violations and discrimination. Instead, for any sensible citizen, they are role models for how children should be raised. The only violation that is, unfortunately, also being committed through this Parliament, is the violation of our logic, biology, science and religion within the framework of...

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen, Greece is geographically the southernmost natural border of Europe and guards Thermopylae for the whole of the European Union. Turkey, on the other hand, through illegal immigration, has for many years been promoting the violent Islamization of Europe, while at the same time receiving billions of euros from us, supposedly to do the opposite. And I ask you, how long will we put up with her dirty play? With the crises in the Middle East, but also the huge business that many NGOs have been doing for years, it is a given that within these rivers of illegal immigrants there will be pockets of terrorists who will not hesitate to bloody Europe again. Have we really forgotten what the Islamist fanatics had done in Bataclan, France, on the London Underground, on the trains in Madrid, murdering and injuring thousands of civilians? We didn't. Frontex keeps sounding the alarm. Does anyone hear her? Take a look at this year's strategic risk analysis. It warns of asymmetric hybrid threats, of European security at risk, of the evolution of cross-border organised crime. And in all of this we remain mere spectators. Immediate action is needed. We need to give Frontex more staff, modern equipment and the possibility of immediate intervention to support Member States. It is well known that smugglers deliberately sink boats with illegal immigrants themselves in order to take advantage of the law of the sea that is favourable to them. At the same time, some MEPs act as if they are collaborators of smugglers. And what do we do about all this? Nothing at all. We took a long time to protect our borders. Not one more illegal immigrant should set foot on the territory of the European Union. We want a Europe of nations, not of illegal immigrants.

Madam President, ladies and gentlemen. Since 2017, 37% of Attica's forests have been burned. Last year alone, 900,000 acres were burned in Dadia, Evros, which was the largest European fire disaster in forty years. Evia, Serres, Corinth, Kavala, Rhodes were also burned. For all the countries of the South, three moves are needed. Firstly, there is an urgent need to acquire firefighting planes at European level. Together with each state's fleet, a common European approach would be more effective, cost-effective and would force companies to prioritise the construction of firefighting aircraft. Secondly, I propose the creation of a European civil protection agency with multiple bases, with a permanent rapid reaction force, ready to intervene when needed. Thirdly, funds are needed for prevention, such as forest cleaning, retardant fluids, proper reforestation and others. I therefore call on the European Union to stand by the Mediterranean countries, first and foremost Greece, which has been hit hardest in the last five years, and to help protect our lives, property and environment in this way.

Mr President, ladies and gentlemen. Germany's violation of the Schengen Agreement is hypocritical and extremely dangerous, and the same applies to the closure of its borders. If the entire European continent suffers from illegal immigrants, it is precisely because of the policies of Germany and Merkel that it suffers. Greece and other Mediterranean countries have already borne a disproportionate burden due to their geographical location. The current attitude, primarily of Germany, to find legal loopholes to avoid its responsibilities is unacceptable. Tackling illegal immigration requires comprehensive European intervention also in terms of Turkey's dirty role. It is a matter of survival to make Europe's borders real fortresses. Let's finally let Frontex do its job and give a strong signal. That's enough. There are no more illegal immigrants in Europe. And in this context, I call on the European Union to rule that anyone who tries to invade its territory illegally will forever lose their right to asylum. Anyone who manages to cross illegally will be arrested and detained in closed centers until deportation. The Europe we know is disappearing and we are dealing with paper straws and green horses. It's time to wake up.
