One-minute speeches on matters of political importance

Madam President, thank you very much. The EU said it would save the forest, but instead the new law on deforestation is collapsing under its own bureaucratic weight. The Commission is now proposing once again to postpone this legislative proposal. The Commission's own computer systems are not able to cope with the burden, according to them. If the EU cannot cope with its own system, how will farme…

Chemicals (joint debate)

Mr President, thank you very much. The EU needs to switch down and start deregulation. For years, the EU’s response to problems such as the financial crisis, the pandemic and climate challenges has been the same old solution: More regulation. Simplifications? This is something we are happy to talk about in this House, but it always turns out to be empty words. And the result? Yes, our European com…

Public health risks in a Europe affected by global warming: tackling the spread of mosquito- and tick-borne diseases (vote)

Madam President, thank you very much. It is almost empty in this House now that most MEPs have gone home, when we are debating ticks, among other things, this afternoon. But I welcome this discussion. Tick-borne diseases such as Lyme disease and TBE can involve long periods of illness and, at worst, neurological problems. Unfortunately, these tick-borne diseases have become an increasing problem. …

10th anniversary of the detention of jailed Swedish publisher Gui Minhai in China

Madam President, thank you very much. Gui Minhai has become a symbol of the struggle for freedom of expression. He dared to criticize Communist China. For this, he was kidnapped and imprisoned – an attack on Sweden’s sovereignty and our fundamental values. The utopia of the left – Communist China – is once again showing its true face. Freedom is shattered and dissidents are silenced. Yet the EU co…

Circularity requirements for vehicle design and management of end-of-life vehicles (debate)

Thank you, Mr President. The Commission's ELV proposal is a threat to our Swedish car industry and car culture. I do not understand how the Commission was able to come up with such an incredibly bad proposal. This should actually end up in the trash where it belongs. Many Swedes love their cars. We repair, renovate and keep older vehicles alive, and that's part of our culture. The Commission wants…

Presentation of the Chemicals Package (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. Yes, this sounded promising: "One substance, one assessment". It sounds like this is supposed to be a simpler system for chemical assessment. But in practice, this is a textbook example of excessive EU bureaucracy. Article 22 introduces new notification requirements that most increase paperwork without improving safety. This particularly affects small business…

But for many girls in Europe, the reality is completely different. Right now, during the summer, underage girls are married off against their will, perhaps with an older man they've never met. They are children, but they are treated as possessions. In Sweden…

Electricity grids: the backbone of the EU energy system (debate)

Madam President, thank you very much. The Commission calls the electricity grid the backbone of Europe's energy system.

Instead of investing in nuclear energy, Brussels paid millions of euros to NGOs to campaign for their interests. It was secret contracts, members were only allowed …
