PL Written Statement

Statement by the candidate for President of the Commission (debate)

I am not surprised that most of your speech was directed to the left side of the room, which is consistent with the agenda that you have been implementing over the last 5 years, both in terms of burdens on European businesses and citizens and the continuation of the federalisation vision. When you spoke about the aggression against Ukraine, human rights and security at the external borders, you di…

Recommendation on EU-China political relations (debate)

Watch

Madam President, thank you very much. When we debate relations between the Union and China today, we must always remember what the real nature of this country is. China is a communist, totalitarian dictatorship that threatens the free world. Reducing relations with China to pragmatic economic relations is not only cynicism, but irresponsible stupidity. China is flooding Europe today with cheap, st…

Political prisoners in Cuba, in particular the case of Félix Navarro and his daughter Saylí Navarro

Madam President, I'm sorry. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. We are once again debating the brutal human rights violations in Cuba. Once again, we demand the release of political prisoners by the communist regime. The resolution we will adopt in their defense, in particular, is dedicated to the heroic defender of freedom Félix Navarro and his daughter Saylí. However, we remember all 1339 political pri…

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, The threats posed by Putin's authoritarian regime and Communist China are real. They must be strongly opposed, because they concern the sphere of national security and strike at the essence of democracy. However, the competences of the Member States need to be developed and strengthened in this regard. It is not an appropriate response to the hosti…

Future of EU support for Russian democratic forces, anti-war actors and repressed civil society (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. I am glad that we are talking in the European Parliament about another Russia, a Russia that will not be a mortal threat to the free world and that will not drip the blood of innocent victims. Is such a Russia possible? When we look at the history of this country, it is difficult to find a basis for optimism. Both Tsarist Russia and Red Russia were aggressive imperialis…

2025 Commission report on Moldova (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. The opening of Moldova's actual accession negotiations with the European Union is a good and well-deserved step on the country's European path. Moldova has the right and the will to break out of the post-Soviet sphere of influence, and we want to help it in this. Our task is to support Moldovan partners in building a strong, modern and democratic state. This means, amon…

Political repression and humanitarian situation in Cuba (debate)

Madam President, the High Representative! Communism in Cuba is in agony. Only brute force keeps the regime in power. It has no democratic or moral legitimacy to govern the Cuban people. There are no basic human and civil rights in Cuba. All manifestations of social resistance are suppressed, and a record number of over 1,200 political prisoners are held in tragic prison conditions. Have you seen a…

The Commission’s 2025 Rule of Law report (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, The Commission's report on the rule of law in the European Union is a document devoid of any objectivity. Once again, on the basis of political motives, the Commission gives a false picture of the situation in this regard. The principle adopted by the Commission is simple: if a country is governed by a conservative right, the rule of law doe…

Combating corruption (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Work on the Anti-Corruption Directive took three years. This document was intended as a response to the Cathar affair, which shocked European public opinion. This was supposed to be a breakthrough in the fight against corruption in the European Union. However, the project on which we are debating will certainly not be such a breakthrough. The directive as it stands…
