Question Time (Commission) – Implementation of the Methane Regulation

Watch

Commissioner, I am pleased to inform you. In eastern Poland, 40 km from the border with Ukraine, there is a hard coal mine ‘Bogdanka’ in the Lublin region. The only unsubsidized mine. A mine that can be a model of transformation and should be rewarded for it. Under the methane regulation, from 2031, emission reductions will amount to 3 tonnes per 1000 tonnes of coal mining. “Bogdanka” already reac…

Urgent need for EU support to Ukraine against Russia’s escalation of its war of aggression (debate)

Watch

Madam President, I'm sorry. Russia is attacking, it is attacking Ukraine, it is attacking Poland and other countries, and in this war the political capital is trying to beat the populists. He wants to break the far right. In my country, 11 MPs demand that the current government organise an Independence March in Ukraine, Lviv, on November 11, so that thousands of people take to the streets, who wil…

Hybrid attacks against the EU Member States (joint debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Today, Poland and the Baltic States, as well as Romania, are on the front line of Russia's hybrid warfare. In eastern Poland, in the Lublin region, where I live, we receive alerts with the following content: ‘Attention! Threat of aerial attack ″. In addition, acts of sabotage, arson, diversion, disinformation, drone attacks, as well as the R…

Madam President, I'm sorry. Thanks to the countries of the eastern flank and the Polish Presidency, Europe has finally recognised that the eastern border of the Union is the first line of our common security. Therefore, Eastern Flank Watch cannot mean mere threat monitoring. Just watching a drone or rocket is not enough. Real defence capabilities are needed: early warning anti-drone systems, integ…

Article 309 of the Treaty on European Union states that the EIB is to promote the sustainable development of the internal market, including projects for the development of less developed regions. I am from such a region, I am from a border region, a frontier region of Eastern Poland, where invest…

Air passenger rights (debate)

Watch

Madam President, I'm sorry. Finally, after 13 years of negotiations, we are improving passenger rights in airlines. Air travel is supposed to give freedom of movement, not cause stress and hidden costs. I say this as an MP from Eastern Poland, from the Lublin region. For many residents of our region, the plane is a fast way to work, to family, to treatment, to Europe. Finally, the price of the tic…

The Central Communication Port, yes, has been criticised, but because you have spent millions of zlotys on investments, on a meadow in which not a single shovel has been driven. Millions of dollars spent on CEOs, secretaries and other expenses. That's why he was criticized because it was your party megalomania. Today, this port is not only under a changed name, but is also...…

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Agriculture must be competitive. To be competitive, fertilizer prices must be lower and nitrogen plants must produce cheaper. For this to happen, gas prices must fall. Gas is the primary raw material for the production of nitrogen fertilizers. But gas is not only the main component related to the price of fertilizers. This also includes the ETS and…

Mr President, thank you very much. Drones have become a mass weapon of the 21st century. Cheap, serial and deadly effective. Ukraine has shown this without illusions. For Poland and other countries on the eastern border of the Union, Russian drone attacks and violations of the European Union's airspace are not isolated cases, but hybrid warfare against the Union and NATO.

Dear colleague, I refer a little to your memory. Remember who was responsible for the Green Deal.

EU cohesion policy funds must be more easily accessible to local governments, businesses and citizens alike.
