The role of gas storage for securing gas supplies ahead of the winter season (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Today, Europe must meet the expectations of the citizens of the European Union. Today, Europe must become completely independent of Russian gas. European security is a priority for the European Commission. There is no economy, no energy security without low gas prices. We warned in Poland. Poland has repeatedly warned against dependence on R…

CFSP and CSDP (Article 36 TUE) (joint debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Faster debate and faster action. Eastern European countries, such as Poland, are today on the front line of defense against threats from the East. Therefore, initiatives such as the East Shield and the Baltic Defence Line are necessary today. Polish EPP MEPs tabled further amendments to strengthen defence on land, air, sea and other areas. In ad…

A Vision for Agriculture and Food (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. The biggest challenge facing farmers today is low profitability, or even lack thereof. Farmers in Europe, especially Eastern Europe, face strict regulations and unfair competition from products outside the European Union. The Commission's vision for agriculture and food includes, among other things, a dialogue with farmers, which is o…

White paper on the future of European defence (debate)

Are you talking about diplomacy? Are you talking about peace, about democracy? Have you heard of women from Belarus and Ukraine? Have you heard of rape? Have you heard of the rape of a 4-year-old girl? In what reality are you living? Do you want to put 500 million citizens of the European Union at risk? Will anyone take responsibility for this?

EU-Mercosur Trade Agreement (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I would like to thank you. The trade agreement between the European Union and Mercosur, prepared in secret from farmers, is not an opportunity – I say this with pain – but a verdict on European agriculture. Mercosur is a black hail cloud that will destroy micro, small family farms that are already struggling to deal with unfair trade from countr…

Russia’s disinformation and historical falsification to justify its war of aggression against Ukraine (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Mr President, thank you very much. Russian disinformation is a modern weapon of mass destruction. It sows chaos, undermines trust in institutions and, above all, divides societies. In Poland, we have seen misinformation many times, from the Smolensk narrative about the attack, which they brazenly fed public opinion, dividing Polish society, dividing Polish fam…

Madam President, thank you very much. The European Commission has introduced the RESTORE Regulation, which is a response to the need to provide rapid assistance and support to European Union citizens affected by cataclysms, such as floods this year in Poland.

Rise of energy prices and fighting energy poverty (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Poles pay the highest energy prices in Europe. In 2023, 11% of Poles suffered from energy poverty, of which 1/4 are pensioners. Problems with high prices also generate problems for companies that close because of this. This is the aftermath of 8 years of bad, improper rule by the Law and Justice party, which did not bet on the energy tran…

Strengthening the security of Europe’s external borders: need for a comprehensive approach and enhanced Frontex support (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Since 2015, the European Union has been confronted with the migration crisis. Currently, this crisis is being exploited by Putin and Lukashenka and is in the nature of a hybrid war. It is necessary to strengthen Frontex and to give it more competences. Poland and the eastern border are a perfect example of how crucial it is to protect our borders. Today, howev…
