Deteriorating situation in Gaza following the non-extension of the ceasefire (debate)

So many innocent civilians have been murdered, women and men raped, bodies mutilated and children taken hostage. And yet, almost two years later, this Parliament still fails to state the obvious: Israel has the right to defend itself! What were Israel's options? Do nothing? Accept any demand made by the terrorists while the hostages were still being held? No country in the world would tolerate thi…

The reintroduction of internal border controls in a number of Member States and its impact on the Schengen Area (debate)

Romania has been eligible for Schengen membership for many years. There is nothing interpretable or questionable here, things are clear. Under these circumstances, it is humiliating to be kept at the door, treated like second-class European citizens. We know that economic interests govern the times in which we live, but it is unacceptable that this violates the principles on which the European Uni…

An updated regulatory framework for wool (debate)

Mr President, for years, because of absurd regulations, wool has been unfairly treated as risk waste, forcing sheep to bury or burn it. This is not environmental protection, it is a clean waste. European Regulation 1069/2009 treats wool as waste rather than a valuable strategic resource. We do not need ideological constraints that bury traditions and suffocate farmers, but smart, realistic solutio…

Recruitment of children by organised crime (debate)

Madam President, extreme poverty fosters crime and the recruitment of minors, both for the purpose of committing serious crimes themselves, such as drug trafficking or violent crime, and for the purpose of exploiting them for begging, sexual abuse or various other crimes. In other words, the poorer our children are, the more they are in danger of becoming victims of organised crime networks. There…

Mr President, Commissioner, everyone is talking here about strategies, statistics, reports. But in real Romania people don't live off European papers and slogans.

Mr President, thanks to organisations such as WWF and Agent Green, in Romania everyone has heard of the Arthur bear.

Mr President, my conclusions after deepening the report: Although the European Commission announces for the period 2028-2034 the largest budget in the history of the EU, at almost 1.8 trillion euros, it is in fact much smaller than the previous budget year. A significant part, EUR 150 billion, i.e. NRRP loans, needs to be returned. Although the European Parliament boasts that it is increasing the …
