Presentation of the programme of activities of the Polish Presidency (debate)

Europe needs concrete words, not empty words – it's time for bold decisions! Unfulfilled promises are a hallmark of Donald Tusk - should Europe follow this path? The government of Donald Tusk in Poland is a symbol of the lack of concreteness and unfulfilled declarations. Now we see the same mistakes in his approach to the announcement of the Polish Presidency of the Council of the EU. Europe deserves leaders who act with vision and courage, not just empty rhetoric. The Green Deal and the ETS are a brake on the European economy. Current climate policies, including the Green Deal and the ETS, limit economic development and undermine Europe’s international competitiveness. In order for Poland and the European Union to be able to compete globally, it is necessary to move away from these regulations. We need solutions that support our industries instead of strangling them. Border protection is not an empty slogan – we say 'no' to the migration pact. Strengthening EU borders and development aid are the only effective migration strategy. Europe deserves more than empty declarations. Donald Tusk's government has already halted the development of Poland. Now his misguided vision threatens the future of the European Union as a whole. Only courageous decisions that focus on the economy, security and interests of Europeans will allow the continent and Poland to develop dynamically. It's time to act instead of talk!

EU-US relations in light of the outcome of the US presidential elections (debate)

As we look ahead to President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration in January 2025, it is vital that we uphold our commitment to fostering strong transatlantic relations. To achieve this, we must uphold a spirit of cooperation and partnership. The United States and the European Union share a long-standing and rich history, with aligned interests across various administrations. Our shared values underpin our collective efforts to tackle global challenges and capitalise on opportunities beneficial to both regions. It is crucial to differentiate our approach towards allies like the United States from our strategies with third countries less committed to democratic values and the rule of law. As partners, it is vital that our interactions with the US are driven by mutual respect and common goals. By collaborating, we can continue to champion the ideals we hold dear and forge a path toward lasting peace and prosperity. This pivotal moment requires Europe to reaffirm its role as a steadfast ally to the United States, prioritising collaboration over confrontation.

European Citizens’ Initiative ‘Stop destroying videogames’ (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, I think there is no doubt in this House that digital property should be protected, and the European Citizens' Initiative on computer games is a perfect example of how citizens are trying to shape their rights in Europe in a real way. There is also no doubt that the problem of access to purchased computer games is completely real, because when servers are turned off arbitrarily, when consumers lose access to digital goods for which they have paid overnight, we are dealing with a situation that is not appropriate. And this is visible to the naked eye. This is bad for trust in the digital market as a whole. That is why I wanted to express my support for all players who are working in this direction to ensure that these digital rights are properly regulated. I would like to point out that we support this initiative unequivocally. At the same time, however, I would like to point out that we must be careful, of course, not to overregulate the market in this situation, so that the market for computer games in Europe can continue to develop, so that our European sector can also grow. That is why I encourage the European Commission to be open to this initiative, but at the same time to take a pragmatic, good approach so that it does not end up overregulating this area and so that our gaming market can continue to grow.

The multiannual plan for the Baltic Sea and ways forward (debate)

Mr President, I would like to thank you very much. There is no doubt today that the Baltic Sea needs protection and real corrective action. This is an extremely sensitive sea, and that is why we need a policy based on facts, not a convenient excuse to blame the fishermen. If someone really cares about a healthy and prosperous Baltic, it is them, people who have been living from the sea for generations, working in the Baltic regions and supporting their families. Therefore, trying to shift responsibility for the state of the Baltic only to them is a ridiculous excuse. In the age of extensive scientific information about many different factors affecting the deterioration of the state of our sea, we should focus on identifying these risks in a comprehensive and diverse way. I am pleased that there is information in this report that we have reported, such as the issue of predators in the functioning of herds, the clean-up of the Baltic Sea from dangerous remnants of war and investment in a waste water treatment plant. But other elements are missing, that's one thing. And there are a few political points in this report that should be deleted. And we have tabled these amendments. And we call on the European People's Party to support them.

Framework Agreement on relations between the European Parliament and the European Commission (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, I am pleased that the European Parliament is taking action to ensure that the European Commission is as transparent as possible. And that's the word I want to focus on the most. I think it should be extremely important for the European Parliament that the European Commission makes available to us the documents it creates within the European Commission, which are not always public at the time of the negotiations. For example, the Mercosur agreement, which was hidden for many months and not made available to either Members or the public during the negotiation phase. The second issue is also the answer to our written inquiries. I regret to say that the current rules in this area are no longer being complied with. That is, the answers are given after the deadline, but above all there are no answers to the real questions that are included in these questions. It could be said that the European Commission will win a speech-grass competition, for volunteering, when it comes to answering Members' questions. And I would like the European Commission to focus on actually responding with openness to these questions and also pointing out the challenges that all of us face in solving various European problems.

Tackling AI deepfakes and sexual exploitation on social media by making full use of the EU’s digital rules (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. We have to call things by their first name. Sexual deepfakes are a form of violence, and generating nude images without consent is a tool of humiliation and blackmail. It's just digital violence. And the perpetrators of this violence must, of course, be ruthlessly prosecuted. And online platforms should immediately block such content and cooperate with all law enforcement authorities. I think that in this room – in this regard, at least in the absolute majority – we all agree. But let's remember one thing. Often, in these discussions about online security, some want to go a step further, i.e. use the rules that are in the DSA for purposes such as fighting against some kind of views. That's the problem in this room, ladies and gentlemen. I think we should focus on what is most important, on the fight against violence, on what is obvious, what is wrong, and not on criticising or blocking our political views online. We must fight violence, but we must also fight for freedom of speech.

2030 Consumer Agenda (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Dear Commissioner, In Europe, we have created many laws that protect consumers in a real and good way. Unfortunately, we have also created many regulations that have created too many bureaucratic requirements under the slogan of consumer protection. I am pleased that the Commission also sees this, and in some of the projects that it is presenting now in Omnibus, it is trying to remove those provisions that introduce this excess of bureaucracy. It is true that I encourage you to go further in some of these projects. However, what is before us today, our main task, is primarily to enforce these rules from third countries that import goods into the European Union, and which repeatedly do not comply with these rules. It's just unfair competition. Because when Polish, European companies actually implement European regulations, such as China or other third countries, they simply do not comply with these regulations. I encourage the Commission to focus on this, so that customs policy can be coordinated, but I would emphasise that it should be coordinated rather than centralised.

Digital Package (debate)

Mr President, Commissioner, I would like to thank you very much. I am pleased that the European Commission is taking the first step in deregulation and simplification in the digital area. That's good information, but not enough. I urge you to be courageous after all. If we are to compete with China, if we are to compete with the United States in the development of artificial intelligence and cutting-edge technologies, we must encourage foreign capital, but also European capital, to dare to invest in these technologies in Europe. Today, thanks to the regulations that currently exist, many European companies or capital funds decide to invest abroad, because the risk of legal regulations in the European Union is simply too great. That is why, Commissioner, I support the boldness of this project. We will be tabling amendments in this regard and you can count on this project to be more ambitious, including with the support of the European Conservatives, but hopefully also of the European People's Party and other parties in this room.

Protection of minors online (debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Protecting children online is, of course, one of the most serious tasks we face as politicians. Social media is one of the many dangers that children face. Social media can be addictive. But this does not mean that under the pretext of these threats we can regulate the Internet in such a far-reaching way as is proposed through identity verification. Age verification is a de facto verification of identity in the future. Parents should decide what content their children have access to. And so, social media platforms should be obliged to create such tools so that parents actually have such control. And it is a challenge for the European Commission to prepare such technical solutions so that social media platforms, various types of other platforms have the technical responsibility to create such tools so that parents can protect children from inappropriate content. However, we cannot play with limiting the anonymity of the Internet, because the tools you propose will lead to this in the future.

Conclusions of the European Council meeting of 23 October 2025 (debate)

I think everyone in Europe is talking about the regulatory ball. The conclusions of the European Council fortunately note this problem, but I have the impression that the European Commission, unfortunately, does not really see this problem. European bureaucrats are choking the continent's competitiveness under the weight of regulation. Although we have big words about simplifying the law, as I have to be brutally honest, unfortunately nothing follows from this, because on the one hand the European Commission proposes packages called simplification, and on the other hand a whole range of different types of new regulations, delegated acts, reporting. I have the impression that everyone here feels like in such a political, bureaucratic matrix. On the one hand, the words about simplification, and on the other hand, further acts that are supposed to complicate the lives of entrepreneurs. Simplifying legislation and partial deregulation, increasing economic freedom in many areas, among other things, are a lifeline for Europe. It would be fairest for the European Commission to say that for years it has erred in this area and simply made mistakes, because without real deregulation, European companies will continue to flee Europe. After all, no one will invest in a place where every year means new regulations, more expensive energy or less predictability for business. This also brings me to the second topic: ETS and ETS2. A Europe without cheap electricity, without cheap heat, without cheap fuels will not be able to compete with other continents. Today we hear from the European Council that ETS2 should continue to be implemented. We just have to get out of this system. This system cannot be saved. This system will simply make Europeans poorer and make European entrepreneurs less competitive. Even today, the European Commission is still unable to withdraw from the ban on the registration of new combustion cars by 2035. Courage and courage! European Conservatives will help make Europe better.

A new legislative framework for products that is fit for the digital and sustainable transition (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. In principle, digitalisation is, of course, a good direction when it causes us to solve some kind of overregulation, when we simplify laws and use it to simply have fewer administrative obligations. Unfortunately, I have the impression that in this document there is also the second part of digitization or arguments that appear during digitization: new responsibilities, only in digital form. That's not a good solution. This is not a good solution when it means additional obligations for European companies. I am talking here, among other things, about additional obligations regarding the reporting of the environmental footprint or all elements related to the Green Deal and the implementation of these obligations, which we should remove from the legal system, and not mandate their reporting in digital reports for the next decades. In fact, our lack of competitiveness is due to two reasons: One is, of course, competition, in the good sense of the word, which, of course, exists in the international environment. The second reason is the restriction of our competitiveness by the internal regulations of the European Union, through the Green Deal, higher energy prices, through various types of regulations that cause our companies to have higher production prices. And that's what we should be focusing on. Finally, let me give you one example: we have recently rightly introduced additional steel levies from outside the European Union, but our main goal should be to reduce the cost of steel production in Europe, not just to reduce its imports from abroad.

Promoting EU digital rules: protecting European sovereignty (debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Strengthening sovereignty does not require the creation of a regulatory corset. Sovereignty is the freedom to act for our companies and for the scientists who create innovation. Innovation is only possible if there is a risk. Because innovation arises in freedom and in taking this risk. I have the impression that the European Commission wants to keep risks to a minimum in many areas, especially digital ones. Without risk, there is no innovation. Therefore, this is not the way we should go. Sovereignty does not mean isolation. Let us distinguish the building of sovereignty from the building of isolationism, which has probably never been good for Europe. Therefore, it is also worth emphasizing. Another important thing when it comes to digital sovereignty and sovereignty when it comes to technological solutions is the issue of energy prices. And we all know very well that digital solutions, especially in the area of artificial intelligence, are extremely energy-intensive. Therefore, we must also look for a way to make electricity cheaper in Europe. Unfortunately, for this to happen, it is also necessary to withdraw from many of the Green Deal regulations. Also bet on nuclear energy as a stable energy that would also power database centers. That is why today we should talk about it, not about further regulations that are supposed to limit the possibilities of international cooperation and opportunities for our companies and scientists.

Common agricultural policy (joint debate)

Madam President, I'm sorry. I have the impression that we are beginning to make the same mistakes in the field of agricultural policy as we did in the past in the field of energy policy. I mean, you are building here right now a future of agriculture that will depend on external actors, on producers outside the European Union. Unfortunately, such an example is the agreement with Mercosur, which in the future will threaten the profitability of agricultural production in Europe. That's one thing. And the second thing, of course, is the scandalous decision, unfortunately by the Polish Commissioner – but unfortunately I have the impression, together with the Commissioner – to cut agricultural expenditure by 22% in the future budgetary perspective. It's two huge blows. On the one hand, huge unequal competition with the Mercosur countries and, on the other hand, a 22% reduction in agricultural spending. These are powerful blows that will hit European agriculture. And I hope that in 10-15 years we will not have to say ‘we did not say’ the same as we mentioned the wrong decisions about gas imports from Russia. Because today we remind you of those mistakes, and I hope that in 15 years we will not remind you of those mistakes that you are making today.

Common agricultural policy (joint debate)

Madam Member, you have just said so boldly about these goals, I have a question. How is it that during the Polish Presidency you failed to reach a mostly blocking agreement with Mercosur? How is it that the Polish Commissioner, who is responsible for the budget in the European Union, proposes to reduce the budget for farmers by 22%? How come you're just hypocrites in this case? Because it was largely up to your party and your government to see if all this could improve.
