Speeches

Mr President, I stood by and listened very carefully to all of you. Obviously, you have political statements and opinions for which we should all have parliamentary immunity. Tomorrow I turn 50: 50 years of life, half a century and almost 30 years of law, as well as 6 years of politics. Unfortunately, no rights of freedom of expression and opinion are respected in Romania. I have been asked to waive parliamentary immunity in the European Parliament for statements and political opinions expressed here and in the Romanian Senate. Unfortunately, the prosecutor did not wait for the waiver of immunity and began the investigation and ordered by an ordinance not my imprisonment, but in a psychiatric hospital, where it is full of people who tell the truth and fight for fundamental rights and freedoms. Just as in the case of Germany, maybe I will apply for political asylum in the United States of America, because it seems that the madmen and the corrupt run Romania, while the good people are imprisoned in the psychiatric hospitals.

Madam President, Commissioner, we are both... we come from the same country, from Romania, where misogyny is in bloom. I remember when you were appointed commissioner, how even those in power insulted you and brought unimaginable accusations against you, just because you were a woman and allowed yourself to get to a place where many men would have allowed themselves, but I don't think they could. In Romania, the situation of women is a terrible one, because every hour 14 women are victims of violence and most of them are killed, raped, offended, insulted. If we get into politics, it is even worse, because we are not allowed, because men call us ‘go to the saucepan’! Moreover, I want to tell you, as an MEP, Child Protection told me that I cannot take care of my child, being an MEP, so they came to take my 13-year-old girl and take her to a foster home. Moreover, the Prime Minister of Romania said that he cannot appoint women at the head of ministries, because he can only appoint competent persons, and women are not part of these persons. So, please, do something to respect women's rights in Romania as well.

Madam President, I am horrified to hear that the European Union has been unable to do anything for its citizens for 10 years. I am horrified to hear that for 10 years a man has been in prison, as you say, and accused, and the European Union is unable to do anything. Instead, when it comes to diplomacy with China, you are only ruining diplomatic relations. In fact, you have ruined all diplomatic relations with the BRICS countries. No one speaks of the BRICS as an economic alternative that has already occupied more than 50% of the world's population, which owns 76% of coal production, which contains 72% of the production of rare earth minerals. You, in fact, speak only of whatever is happening in other countries, but you do not see what is happening in the countries of the European Union, where, indeed, as our colleague said, no one should go to prison for free speech. In Europe it is done, in Romania there are people imprisoned for free speech.

Madam President, yes, it is very interesting what is happening there. My colleague from the Patriots is right. Everyone contributed to the disaster in Haiti and nobody cared. But it's very far away and I don't see how you can get involved, because any sanction, any threat doesn't matter. Instead, you could get involved here, in the European Union, in Romania, where we also have organised criminal groups killing people every day on the streets of Romania. We have girls who are taken and prostitutes. We have countless people unjustly imprisoned. Instead of the police and gendarmerie investigating these cases, they are ordered by the Minister of the Interior and the Minister of Justice to register politicians and MPs and MEPs 24 hours a day and to file criminal cases for any opinion and any live that they make. First, take care of it here. And by the way, two seconds, today is Ursula von der Leyen’s birthday, let’s say ‘Happy Birthday!’ and let’s say ‘Happy Birthday!’ to Putin yesterday.

Madam President, both as a Member of the European Parliament and as a lawyer, I wonder how it is possible to have citizens of the European Union, for several months now imprisoned in a prison in Equatorial Guinea, which is an extremely small country in Central Africa, which was effectively a colony of Spain, and we have so far done nothing? With all due respect, but what is the European Union doing to defend its citizens? And then, if the European Union is not able even in front of Equatorial Guinea to impose its respect, power and law, you are talking about rights and freedoms, why is it in Romania? You should know that in Romania we also have people imprisoned in prison, because they can afford to tell the truth on social media or on TV. Politicians who, like their previous colleague, are forbidden by the bank to have accounts. We politicians, including myself, are being put in prison for allowing ourselves to say the right to free speech and opinion. Since when did we come to Europe not to defend our citizens, neither here nor there?

Madam President, I have heard here some matters which, at least, have perplexed me. So only some states are allowed to have nuclear weapons, the others are not. We are talking about rights and freedoms in Iran, but we do not see censorship and inquisition in the European Union, led by Ursula von der Leyen and the European Commission, as well as the European Parliament. You don't see the censorship and inquisition in Romania, where people like me, for example, I have a criminal file for statements and political opinions in the European Parliament and in the Romanian Parliament. Are you accusing Iran but not Israel of genocide and crimes against humanity? Do you support Israel and have been complicit in the genocide there for two years? You only impose sanctions and I ask you: what have you done with the sanctions imposed on the countries you do not support? We have arrived without economy, without industry, without agriculture, and Europe is falling.

Madam President, we have been sitting and talking for two years. They vote resolutions over resolutions here and at the UN. I want to ask you: talk about the two-state solution – what are the two-state borders? Has anyone thought about it? I, as a lawyer, want to see what the boundaries are. Is Gaza still in Palestine or is it taken by Netanyahu? Because, in fact, Netanyahu and Israel have started to become two different issues. More than 1 million Jews have taken to the streets in Israel, demanding Netanyahu's dismissal and an end to genocide and crimes against humanity in Gaza. West Bank. The so-called ultra-Orthodox Jews claim that the territory now held by Israel does not belong to Israel, but to Palestine, and so it is, because, in 1948, the UN took the territory of Palestine and gave it to Israel. At this point, I'm telling you, you're talking about democracy. In Romania it is not allowed to speak of Palestine...

Mr. Dancu, you talked about manipulation and about elections that were rigged and I want to remind you that you, three days before October 5, the day when the Constitutional Court banned me from running for political opinions and declarations as a senator - for which I had parliamentary immunity - announced on Antena 3, a television that PSD pays, that I will no longer be a candidate, because PSD and PNL are preparing my exit from the presidential elections. How do you see manipulation when you yourself are the artisans of manipulation and you are the ones who defrauded the elections in Romania?

Mr President, yes, you are upset that China is now imposing very high taxes, not only on pork, but on many other products. But, unfortunately, you have not used diplomacy with China and you do not know them and you have not treated them properly. China, at this moment holds the highest power, is the highest power in the world. Europe has fallen. Unfortunately, we're going to get worse. It bothers you now and you want to help the farmers. Well, in Romania, you, here, but also from the European Commission, have acted against Romanian farmers. You brought us swine fever, although it never existed, and you banned our exports - and now they are blocked - so that the other countries, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, the powers of Europe would win. When I asked you to help our farmers, you weren't interested and you went bankrupt. Now who are you gonna help? Still of the great European powers? Or are you also thinking about us in Eastern Europe?

I pressed blue card and to the EPP and you did not allow me to speak at blue cardSo you only have us. Mr Piperea, I think we should ask Mrs Ursula von der Leyen why she is not talking about the fact that yesterday Qatar was attacked by Israel and 15 civilians were killed. So it's a war, while Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen quoted from the Talmud and said that the religion of Israel is the religion of...

Mr President, I saw that it bothered most of you that I said "Moldova is Romania", but also accused - Putinism and so on. You can see that you are tabula rasa in history. You have no idea about history! Moldova was called Bessarabia and Bessarabia is Romania. Do you know who is against true history and says that Moldova was never Romania's and we should not unite and that we have no rights over Moldova? Putin's Russia and Putin. You have the same rhetoric as Putin and the Russian Federation about Romania's union with Moldova. Are you talking about democracy in Moldova, in our Bessarabia? Banning opposition parties and candidates - this is what Maia Sandu is doing - elections defrauded with the help of the power in Bucharest, establishing terror against opponents and throwing them in jail, closing televisions that do not support Maia Sandu's line, closing and censoring newspapers, both those sold at stalls and those online, censoring social media, closure of the accounts of organisations that are opposing. Moldova is an artificial state, Bessarabia is (...)

Mr. President, yes, I hear you all talking here. I don't know how many of you have ties to Serbia. My paternal grandfather was Serbian, so I know a lot of things there. I know that everything that's going on right now is under the dominion divide et impera, because Serbia, obviously, was a European Union project started by the Soros Foundation together with the United States Department of State. After Trump's arrival, obviously the USAID project withdrew and then the European Union had to compensate for what the United States had not given there before. I ask the Serbs not to fall into this trap and not to play the game of Sorosist foundations, which, as in Romania, as in Bulgaria, are trying to put Serbs against Serbs. I ask them nicely to unite and fight against these petty interests of the European Union, because Serbia can have there an important Balkan hub in terms of Russian hydrocarbons and even, if Ukraine loses, even there an important economic point.

Madam President, I think you have not understood that the spheres of influence have changed and the poles of power are others. I think you have not understood that the European Union has been left alone and a completely different world power has been formed, with all those countries that you call dictatorships, while the most terrible dictatorship is being established in Europe. About 270 billion dollars had to pass through Romania from the United States to Ukraine. Do you know what happened during the time of Prime Ministers Ciucă and Ciolacu, whom you supported? 100 billion dollars have disappeared and are involved in their theft not only Romanian prime ministers, but also personalities from the leadership of the European Union. And no one's telling you that. The Romanians do not agree that we should die on the front for Ukraine, but know that we also have a million Romanians there who are oppressed and discriminated against by the dictatorial regime.

Madam President, you are discussing the right to freedom of expression and opinion, Article 10 ECHR, but in the Romanian Constitution we have Article 30(2), which states: ‘Censorship of any kind shall be prohibited’. And yet, we have people who are banned, sent to prison because they can afford to express their opinions, because they can afford to think, because they can afford to express opinions other than you. Who can decide what is fake news or disinformation? When power arrogates to itself this right, to mention that what another party is saying is fake news and misinformation, at that moment we are moving on to dictatorship. What is the difference between the leadership of the European Union and the communists who imposed on us their ideas, their expression, limited our right to speak, express and think, and sent our parents and grandparents to prison? The DSA must be abolished, and freedom of expression cannot be censored.

Madam President, in general, I appreciate citizens' initiatives, but in this situation it was initiated by ethnic Hungarians in Romania and I want to tell you that Transylvania is Romania. And no, we do not agree with autonomy, because in Romania, ethnic Hungarians have the most rights that you can find out in any country. We are an example of how we respect ethnic Hungarians, from language, until, in these counties, Harghita, Covasna, Mures, literally only Hungarian is spoken and you are not allowed to speak Romanian. In this context, I heard a colleague from Hungary talking about the Praid Salt Mine. Well, the Praid Salt Mine is run by an NGO called Cholnoky Jenő, which operates with money from Hungary. I can admire Viktor Orbán for his foreign policy, but not for what he does in Romania. I say to him: Romania, Transylvania is Romania. And as far as the regions are concerned, look at Ukraine. Romania has there Northern Bukovina, Herta, Bugeacul and Hotinul, where a million Romanians are discriminated against, they are not allowed to speak Romanian, they are not allowed to pray...

Madam President, thank you for mentioning Romania and Romanian firefighters, because every year, Romanian firefighters help in all countries, but unfortunately you do not know the problems of Romanian firefighters. They are paid 500-600 euros per month and after being firefighters, they also play paramedics at SMURD. That SMURD, which you cheered, led by Raed Arafat, who kills people. Because SMURD doesn't give you any first aid. And the firefighters, even though they do this service, they don't get any extra money. What's more, they don't have equipment, they don't have technology, even though it's a lot of money. I heard Mr Negrescu and Mr Buda speak, but they represent the Socialists and Liberals, who have ruled Romania for 35 years and say that firefighters do not have equipment. Well, because of them, they don't have the equipment, because they steal the money. Two years ago, at the fire in Crevedia, firefighters were to be lynched by the government and accused of not defending people, although they saved them, because of some dubious business of socialists and liberals with liquefied gas. This is the truth about the problems of the firefighters, who are heroes of Romania.

Mr President, Media Freedom Act, In fact, it complements the DSA, which you have adopted. In fact, all you're doing is setting up a new inquisition. In Spain, the Inquisition lasted 600 years. Speak only of control. Control of your power, control of the socialists and liberals, which in Romania is the purchase of the entire press. I, at least, am censored in all the media, on all the televisions, in all the journals. I'm not allowed to, because I'm telling a truth that doesn't suit you. Likewise, the DSA had its first victim, in my capacity, on 5 October 2024, when the Constitutional Court, at the request of Ursula von der Leyen, prohibited me from running for President for statements and political opinions in the newspaper, because I campaigned for the freedom to choose whether to vaccinate or not, for the truth about ‘plandemia’ and about war. The man up there, you forbade him to speak, though...

Madam President, I was wondering if Mrs Ursula von der Leyen would have both common sense and respect for all the MEPs who will take the floor, but also the courage to look me in the eye after her direct interventions in the presidential elections in Romania, where I was banned at her request. You're talking about China. I'm a lawyer and I've been working with the Chinese for 30 years. You're afraid of them because you don't know them. You want to go to the summit and pick on China, because she's friends with Russia? She has always been friends with Russia. He's part of the BRICS. That you don't understand. We are part of NATO. I would prefer to be part of the BRICS, because it is much more interesting BRICS and much more respectful. You want to talk about Taiwan? Big mistake! You go and discuss, and I'll tell you what was discussed at China's diplomatic mission when it was reproached about Taiwan. He said that as Germany united, so must they unite. Do you want to talk about human rights? In Europe we have the greatest tyranny, dictatorship and prohibition of human rights and violation of fundamental human rights. So you have no chance, starting from the premises that you discussed here. Learn a little more about diplomacy and international politics.

Madam President, in Romania, a person with a disability has an allowance of between EUR 45 and EUR 100 per month. The current president of Romania, Nicusor Dan, supported and appointed president by the European Commission and Mr. Macron, as mayor of Bucharest, until he became president, halved this allowance for people with disabilities. He could only get money from people with disabilities. Currently, the Bolojan government, also set up by the European Commission and Macron, has taken some steps. And what did he do? It has halved and cancelled many allowances for people with disabilities. This is the protection of people with disabilities in Romania. What's more, you're talking about deinstitutionalization. We have been deinstitutionalizing some disabled children for about two years now and I want to say that for two years they have been kept in apartments, in studios, from where they have never been taken out, for two years. In Romania, we do not have social assistance...

Mr President, I finally agree with you. But, as a lawyer, I tell you that these measures will not lead to a great success of the European Union, because it is about impoverishment of the population and then we force the population, through all the measures that have been taken for at least five years in the European Union, to go to very cheap and worthless things. Moreover, in Romania, because a colleague of factories and factories was talking here, you and the International Monetary Fund closed all factories and factories. Moreover, we also have a problem within the European Union, with designers ordering products cheaply in China and then selling them expensively in Europe. Moreover, we have French designers, such as Louis Vuitton and Dior, who copied Romanian and did not respond, while from China come countless Romanians, which are fakes. So it is with the pottery of Horezu and Corund, that we also have problems, not only Spain. And no one's taking a stand, which means we're going to lose on all sides.

Mr. President, since when does the minority lead a majority? Democracy is the law imposed by the majority. The majority, for example, in Romania, 98% of us are Christians. We disagree with homosexuality, we disagree with same-sex marriage, we disagree with same-sex adoptions, we disagree with civil partnerships. Nobody forbids them to exist, but in their bedroom. What are you doing on the street? What's so proud of you, man, to go out with your excessive hair on the street, with a mini-juvenile, to show all your exteriors, to show even your genitals in front of children you're destroying. It bothers me, as a woman, to see a man mocking femininity. It bothers me that 9- and 10-year-olds are taught to kiss on the street boy with boy, girl with girl. It bothers me, as a parent, that you mock our children. Get your paws off our kids!

Madam President, you are talking about stabilising the European economy because of the plandemic. In fact, you have done nothing but give money to some countries, and the other countries, through our citizens, to pay off your loans. You should talk to the two rapporteurs who are Romanians and who are part of the parties that destroyed Romania and which have now made Romania borrow 8.9% interest, the lowest interest rate. Why should my Romanians, who are already indebted to more than EUR 40 000 per capita, pay for what other countries profit from? Why are you talking about saving the European economy, when we have the most bankruptcies of transport companies, livestock, agriculture in Romania, and recently we have another blackmail of the European Commission to privatize all the companies that still belong to the Romanian state: Nuclearelectrica, Hidroelectrica, Romgaz and Transelectrica. Because the two, who come from the governing parties, destroyed this country.

Mr President, we are talking about freedom of speech and democracy. No, it doesn't exist. It's the same in Russia as it is in Germany, and even worse. Once you're against power, you're branded an anti-Semite. I tell you this because absolutely all the opposition is made anti-Semitic and legislation is adopted against the opposition, accusing them of anti-Semitism, banning the history of Romania. Hi, bad, it is forbidden by a certain gentleman representative of the Khazars in Romania. It is forbidden, and if you talk about the history of Romania, you are imprisoned for 10 years. If you print a book or buy a book about the history of Romania in the Second and after the Second World War, you go to jail for 10 years. If you can afford to talk about Marshal Antonescu and Corneliu Zelea Codreanu and the Legionary Movement, which was never condemned by the Nuremberg Tribunal, you go to jail for 10 years. And that's because Mr. Vexler, who is the representative of the Khazars in Romania, wants to. And I ask you where is the freedom of speech? How to suppress newspapers, journals and television, because some people don't like the truth. Shimon Peres mentioned...
