European solidarity: key to securing medicine access in a shifting geopolitical era (debate)
Mr President! Commissioner! Ladies and Gentlemen! The Commission's ambitions are exemplary. The goal is clear, but the reading raises some serious questions. All in all, everything is quite theoretical and apparently not really from the pen of people who are based in the medical sector. How should the plans be implemented and implemented in a functional way if even individual Member States fail to…

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance
Mr President! More than 20,000 people – children, women and men – with devastated limbs are waiting for operational care in Gaza. As a doctor and surgeon, I thought we had to evacuate them to Europe, for example. But we don't have to, because despite the destruction, there is enough medical capacity to start in Gaza. This is confirmed by local doctors and international doctors working there. Howev…

Institutional consequences of the EU enlargement negotiations (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner! First of all, I would like to thank Mr Gozi for his report. The report analyses the constitutional status of the EU and then draws conclusions for the structure in case of enlargement to more than 30 members. While sharing this analysis, I have concerns about the course of the EU and the proposed constitutional changes. The report reveals the serious constitutional cris…

A new vision for the European Universities alliances (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner! Research makes a significant contribution to the further development of human life on this planet. Therefore, research is in the interest of our citizens and all people in the world. I found a lot of criticism in reports and resolutions in this Parliament last year – not so in this report. I would like to thank Mrs Farreng warmly for her report and her work; However, I …

Announcement by the President
Madam President, It will be very short: With reference to Rule 178 of the Rules of Procedure, which governs speaking time, I would like to take a critical note that there is no opportunity for non-attached Members of the European Parliament to take the floor for the debate on the ESF+ on 9 September of the year. As far as my understanding of parliamentary democracy goes, Parliament is made up of p…

2023 and 2024 reports on Bosnia and Herzegovina (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner! First of all, I would like to thank Mr Kolář for his work. I support the report in part because it describes in a very realistic way the profound problems and structural challenges associated with the EU accession process of Bosnia and Herzegovina. If we want to debate honestly and not just make symbolic gestures, we have to draw conclusions from the report. At the s…

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance
Mr President! I have a more fundamental point to make. We live in 2025 and debate as if we were in the Cold War. I've been a doctor all my life and have never understood why politics can't think peacefully. More tanks don't make Europe safer. The number of heavy weapons no longer determines war and peace, but the political will to resolve conflicts diplomatically. Let us stand together here in Par…

Topical debate (Rule 169) - Social Europe: making life affordable, protecting jobs, wages and health for all
Mr President! Unfortunately, nothing specific from the Commission – that would be insufficient at school. People in the EU will only continue to believe in our good project if they live adequately in the EU, are cushioned by the welfare state if necessary and embedded in the best possible health care. The current dysfunctionality in the EU is now being fuelled by mass war hysteria. Members of this…

Secessionist threats in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the recent escalation (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner! The EU-Bosnia and Herzegovina Association Agreement has not yet been successful. The causes are manifold and lie, among other things, in the fragile intergovernmental structure. EUFOR troops, a military force, are intended to promote stability – so far, this has prevented a flare-up of armed violence at best. A country can only grow together from within; I don't believe…

Union of Skills: striving for more and better opportunities to study, train or work in the EU and to bring our talents back home (debate)
Mr President, Madam Vice-President! Actually, it is a good idea, but the implementation will depend on the framework conditions and the working climate in the EU. As long as conditions are better for entrepreneurs, scientists and specialists outside the EU, they will not return. On the other hand, our talents lie dormant in Europe. Germany has 2.48 million young people without education or trainin…

The need to address urgent labour shortages and ensure quality jobs in the health care sector (debate)
Mr President! Madam Executive Vice-President! Ladies and Gentlemen! 1.2 million doctors and nurses are missing in the European Union. Each nation deals with it differently. The practice in practice from a German point of view, at least, is quite unsolidaristic. Nurses and doctors follow the money and start their activities after completing their studies in Germany. Its neighbours, however, train n…

Need to detect and to counter sabotage by the Russian shadow fleet, damaging critical undersea infrastructure in the Baltic Sea (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen! The targeted destruction of underwater infrastructure is a crime and must be condemned in the strongest possible terms. Like everyone in this House, we support any measure to prevent this from happening and to punish it if it happens. On 26 September 2022, three out of four tubes of the Nord Stream pipeline were destroyed in a criminal act. 25 perc…

Promoting social dialogue and collective bargaining and the right to strike in the EU (debate)
Mr President! Commissioner! Ladies and Gentlemen! I perceive the following reality: Today's EU is a Europe of banks and the big business. A Europe where social inequality is growing and social rights are falling under the wheel. Precisely in times of crisis, social fundamental rights and collective bargaining autonomy are subordinated to the economic freedoms of the internal market with the right …

One-minute speeches on matters of political importance
Mr President! My topic: Europe as a peace project. The public atmosphere in Germany in 1914 and now, but also the spirit in this house are the same: We are preparing for war – we know the end. Mr. Rutte recommends 450 million Europeans over the weekend to prepare for a war mentality because we are preparing for war with China and Russia. I agree with you that all wars, including those of Russia in…

Regional Emergency Support: RESTORE (debate)
Madam President, ladies and gentlemen. We are critical of reallocating unused funds from Cohesion Funds and using them for covert objectives. We hope that this will not make roads fit for the military. The aid payments to those affected from EU funds must not be a substitute for national efforts in order not to have to expect the same effects for people in the event of the expected weather disaste…

Guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States (debate)
Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, Improving working conditions for Europeans within the single market is an important task for this House. I would also like to welcome the present outcome of the EMPL activity, and I would like to thank Li Andersson in particular for the collegial and constructive cooperation. Contrary to the Commission's drafts, the EMPL text has a lot of realism and a deep soci…

Presentation of the programme of activities of the Hungarian Presidency (debate)
Madam President, tease Minszterelnök úr! It is not necessary to agree with everything that has happened in Hungarian civil society in recent years. But that is not up for debate today, nor can I judge that. In addition, we have seen enough Hungarian election campaigns in the last hour. However, I find it quite outrageous to derive from this a blockade attitude towards the Hungarian Presidency. And…

Need to prevent security threats like the Solingen attack through addressing illegal migration and effective return (debate)
Madam President, Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen! The first thing I want to say: Asylum is an important human right. Tells you an East German who fled to the West under communist rule. However, the recent murders of an Islamist who was an asylum seeker in Germany are an expression of a failed migration and integration policy. Violent crime and uncontrolled migration are not only statistically r…
