Reviewing the ETS system to support European competitiveness (topical debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, To answer the question of whether to throw the ETS in the trash or to abolish it, what is the current assessment of citizens, it is enough to look at the streets of Warsaw at the moment when these deliberations are taking place. At the moment, hundreds of thousands of Poles are protesting against climate policy on the streets of Warsaw. Your slogans about ETS are beautiful, and in the meantime, look at the various financial instruments. Yesterday in the hall you awarded Angela Merkel. It is a pity that the German delegation does not recall where the ECJ came from. Energiewende – get rid of coal, take gas and gas is to be supplied via Nord Stream 1 and Nord Stream 2. That was your strategy. And today in Lithuania, where our friends from Lithuania live, drones are flying in, which may have been directly financed by Nord Stream 1 and 2, at least by this idea. So think about why this ETS was actually blocking the development of industry and the European economy.
Rule of law, fundamental rights and misuse of EU funds in Slovakia: the need for an EU response (B10-0245/2026) (vote)
Dear President, It is a pity that everyone left, but yesterday you thanked Angela Merkel with great applause, and today, our Lithuanian brothers, friends, drones are flying into the European Union. This could put Gerhard Schröder on the list in response to the aggression of the Russian Federation or further provocations. persona non grata? And that will be adequate. And maybe it will be applauded, not by the author of Nord Stream 1, Nord Stream 2 next to Chancellor Schröder.
Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, Only investment in modern technologies is a guarantee in an economic race in which Europe has a chance to rise to the top. So, of course, all legal acts that provide for the possibility of investing and developing digital or communication aspects should be supported. Crucially, however, we must be careful of extreme regulation, which can limit the freedom of the internet through slogans aimed at a free market. Therefore, all solutions that give the opportunity for freedom, freedom, but mean that Europe has a chance to develop, should be supported. Therefore, in this race between China and the United States, Europe must focus on modern technologies and, of course, the issue of communication, which is also a guarantee of security in the context of a geopolitical threat.
Restoring control of migration: returns, visa policy and third-country cooperation (topical debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. Ladies and Gentlemen, Illegal migration is not only a problem of France, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, but of the whole European Union or of the whole of Europe, because even the United Kingdom, which is not in the European Union, has a gigantic problem. Instead of concentrating on some integration centres, we need to consider how all those who break the law can be sent back or prevented from breaking the law, from coming to Europe. I have a document in front of me that is being blocked by the socialists. It is a question of revising a directive with consequences for those who illegally enter Europe. What do you want as the left side? Exclusion of liability if someone is working in an NGO? I happen to be coming from Poland. And Poland has experience in all these NGOs, which on the Polish-Belarusian border were inscribed in Russian and Belarusian propaganda and narrative. Had it not been for the hard line of the former government, we would have had a flood of hybrid warfare in the form of illegal migrants on our eastern border of the European Union. Therefore, speed up the work that will end the discussion once and for all and close anyone who helps irregular migrants to come to the European Union.
Implementation of the rule of law conditionality regime (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. I must admit that the ability to call things beautiful is your specialty, in fact propaganda. Because the Green Deal is really a rotten deal. And the rule of law? Everyone wants the rule of law. But when we look at what you're talking about, it's all about controlling the governments of the countries in question. An example is the National Recovery Plan. When the conservative-centric party in Poland ruled, you said that you could not, because you had to fulfill this, this and this. A new government has arrived. The colleague Donald Tusk came and suddenly it turned out that without changes these funds are unfrozen. And it went to swinger clubs, different yachts, it went to friends, it went to the wife of the Member - it's all OK. But all this bullshit is just to control, to create a superstate that the Europeans never agreed to. So I am surprised that there were also words in this room – I would like to draw attention to this – that Mrs Katarina Barley, a German woman, spoke about starvation. Really, if a German woman is talking about starving anyone, let her think about what she's saying.
United response to recent Russian violations of the EU Member States’ airspace and critical infrastructure (RC-B10-0419/2025, B10-0419/2025, B10-0421/2025, B10-0422/2025, B10-0423/2025, B10-0424/2025, B10-0437/2025) (vote)
Madam President, I'm sorry. Ladies and Gentlemen, We suggest adding that the European Parliament: Calls on the European Commission and the Council to take action to draw consequences for those responsible for the so-called reset in the European Union’s relations with the Russian Federation and for the promotion and implementation of economic projects that have contributed to Europe’s increased energy dependence on Russia, and consequently to the current security crisis and war against Ukraine; Stresses that Gerhard Schröder should be sanctioned by the European Union and that his case should be a symbolic example of a lack of acceptance of attitudes contrary to the values and interests of the European Union.
Time to complete a fully integrated Single Market: Europe’s key to growth and future prosperity (debate)
Dear President, Ladies and Gentlemen, The recipe for a good single market can be fulfilled on Thursday. That's Ursula von der Leyen's appeal. Europe can count CO2 emissions in tonnes2, and cannot count how many factories, how many jobs are being pushed out of Europe. Europe pays two to three times more for energy than other countries in the world. But we also pay three or four times more for ideology. And this is the best answer to what should be done on Thursday, i.e. cancel Ursula von der Leyen, which is harmful for Europe, for the market. Europe is becoming carbon-free as it ceases to have jobs. Europe is becoming carbon-free as it ceases to have factories. It ceases to have places of production. Europe is dependent on external sources. Over the last few years, Europe has not moved forward, it has even collapsed. And we look at this agony, which means danger. Loss of sovereignty, Mercosur, or read: agriculture, the supply of various raw materials, products, all this has made dependency and the collapse of Europe before our very eyes. The answer to all this is Thursday. You can cancel Ursula von der Leyen.
Solidarity with Poland following the deliberate violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones (debate)
Mr President, I'm sorry. There is no worse attitude in this room than hypocrisy. A bunch of hypocrites, who recently, like puppeteers, ran with pizza or sleeping bags, disturbing order on the Polish border. Where was the European Union when Nordstream 1 and Nordstream 2 were built? Where were your representatives from the European People's Party when Ursula von der Leyen spoke yesterday about accelerating climate targets? When Putin builds drones, arms himself, we slaughter European industry, deprive Europe of food security – read Mercosur – deprive energy security – Energiewende Strategy. Because you have windmills in your head. Because you're saying what? Will it be an independent source of energy? That's all you're doing in this room, that's pure pro-Russian politics. Ursula von der Leyen was the Minister of National Defence in Angela Merkel's government. And you are surprised today that Putin is sending drones? Well, the poor. Hypocrisy and history have long judged you and show that, unfortunately, you have led to this crisis that is pouring over the eastern border of the European Union. The funding for armaments is an adequate response, not your ideological fables.
Solidarity with Poland following the deliberate violation of Polish airspace by Russian drones (debate)
Thank you very much. I'm glad you're talking about Gaza. Such a small correction: The conflict started earlier. It was the Polish border that was pushed forward when the European Union attacked Polish ministers for defending our borders. It was 2008, recalled here by Marshal Brudziński, when Lech Kaczyński spoke in Tbilisi about what was happening with Russia: Georgia today, Ukraine tomorrow, then the Baltic States, and finally my country, Poland. And on the other side was your compatriot, Gerhard Schröder. Do you want it to be persona non grata? For this man to be banned from entering the European Union? Because, as far as I know, he has not been effectively sanctioned, and he is responsible for financing, among other things, any blood that has flowed from the Russian troops.
After 10 years, time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children (topical debate)
Madam President, the situation is urgent. Russian drones fell in Poland, and you say that the topic of the debate was decided on Monday. Tomorrow we are discussing the Congo, not the situation in Poland. It's outrageous what you're doing. If, again, drones fall in Berlin, are we also to say that the topic was fixed on Monday? It's not in your head.
After 10 years, time to end mass migration now - protect our women and children (topical debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. I've tried it here a few times. I'll wait until there's a translation. Thank you very much, because this vote is a little late, but you said that the agenda for the debate is set on Monday. When the drones fall on Berlin, should we also say that the topic was set on Monday? The European Parliament's response should be immediate. The point on the resolution related to the situation in Poland and in the European Union should be a firm response. You, as the European People's Party, want to discuss the European army... (The Chair interrupted the speaker)
Circularity requirements for vehicle design and management of end-of-life vehicles (debate)
Mr President, thank you very much. At every point where we touch on the subject of cars, it is necessary to recall one problem that the European Union is creating, in a few years we will begin to function in a world where the ban on the registration of combustion cars, the work of the Party of the European People's Party, i.e. also the Civic Platform, will begin to enter into force. And all the cars we're going to register are going to be electric cars. This electromobility will mean exclusion, it will mean poverty, it will mean gigantic problems. This is not only an increase in insurance costs, but also the cost of use, lack of infrastructure, increase in energy demand. The whole reform or actually change the system of operation of high-voltage lines. It all means disaster. And today we should put this point as the main one to throw away this idiotic idea of the European People's Party and only later should we move on to the next free market solutions for the circular economy when it comes to the current automotive industry.
Investments and reforms for European competitiveness and the creation of a Capital Markets Union (debate)
Madam President, I'm sorry. Let's start with the fact that there should already be a stronger debate on the Multiannual Financial Framework, which will cause us a real catastrophe. You are talking about the pension system, and you will read there about issues related to the debt of the next generations. Turning to this report, which we are discussing here, the European taxes in the form of the ETS should be thrown out immediately. If you want to make life easier for Europeans, including Spaniards, throw out both ETS and Mercosur. And I have this question: Are you in favour of putting the whole Green Deal in the trash?
Madam President, Commissioner! You will be the gravedigger of European agriculture. Hands off the Polish farmer. Hands off all farmers in the European Union. Your idea in the form of Mercosur will lead to the fact that people on wheelbarrows will just take you out. In the name of some business that will have to be clarified, perhaps the committee of inquiry here will be the best subject to take up this discussion someday, you want to kill European agriculture. So let me stress once again – leave European agriculture alone. And if anyone thinks otherwise, then in two hours you have a vote on Ursula von der Leyen, at least abstain. But if you support Mercosur, the Green Deal, the migration crisis, the crisis with the United States, you will vote for her to remain in office. And if you want to throw it all in the trash, that is, you want a Europe that is right about the state of the Europe of nations, you will vote to leave the European Commission building.
Mr President, thank you very much. Mr. Commissioner, I'm sorry. Make America great again, make Europe great again – these are the words that matter, because if Europe wants to be competitive today, if it wants to talk about trade, it has to go back to its roots, it has to throw away or throw away all the ideological ideas that are in this room. Hundreds of hours of discussion on topics that are not later reflected in good solutions for the economy. Drill, baby, drill, says the President of the United States. What does Europe say? Let's shut down the industry, block the development of companies, add additional taxes, come up with some ideological aspects, bans on registration of diesel cars, and America is reviving and starting to function in a normal way. So if today Europe wants to be competitive and wants to have good trade with the United States, first of all on Thursday, cancel Ursula von der Leyen, because today she also has the face of failure in relations with the United States, because today Europe, the European economy, is suffering the consequences of this misguided policy.
