Interim report on the proposal for the multiannual financial framework for 2028-2034 (debate)
Mr President, a European AI company that is becoming a global player. An external border that stands like a house. A defense that keeps our continent so safe that we can just live here. That is what this budget should make possible. And you can. But then we have to be honest. More money is not the answer. I'll make choices. A budget that invests a little in everything does not really invest in any…

Savings and Investments Union: time to accelerate the process to deepen market integration (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, Europe is full of talent. Everywhere ‑ups are born with smart ideas and technologies, which make our economy stronger and make us less dependent on others. Too often we see the same thing happen: a company starts in Europe, grows a little and then leaves for another country, because it cannot get enough money here to continue to grow. If we want to focus on …

European Semester for economic policy coordination 2026 - European Semester for economic policy coordination: employment and social priorities for 2026 (joint debate)
Mr President, we must invest in our defence to ensure that we remain safe. Because our security is not free, but neither is the money we need for it. We have made clear agreements with each other about our national debts and to ensure that European countries are financially sound. Now new situations call for new choices. This was the case with the coronavirus outbreak, with the Russian invasion of…

The EU’s post-2027 long-term budget: Parliament’s expectations ahead of the Commission’s proposal (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, Minister, with the new multiannual budget, we have the opportunity to build a strong Europe. Then, however, we must seize that opportunity. We do this by investing heavily in our defence, by jointly producing weapons, strengthening our infrastructure and increasing our digital security. Also by growing our companies and economy with more room for innovation, clean techn…

Financial activities of the European Investment Bank – annual report 2024 (debate)
Mr President, Commissioner, Vice-President, defence, weapons and ammunition contribute directly to our security in an increasingly unsafe world. However, there is still a stigma and that causes our collective security to be hindered. We need to get rid of that stigma. We no longer have the luxury of abandoning weapons and ammunition. The European Investment Bank has already made great strides in s…

A revamped long-term budget for the Union in a changing world (debate)
Mr President, if we want Europe to emerge stronger from this era, we must dare to invest smartly and purposefully. A strong European Union starts with security. That means investing more in our own defence, so that we are no longer dependent on the United States but can guarantee our own security. It also means focusing on innovation and industry, so that we can once again become a leader in techn…

Savings and Investments Union (debate)
Mr President, we hear the concerns of our entrepreneurs and companies on a daily basis. They want to innovate and grow in Europe, but money is needed to do so. However, this venture capital is currently not sufficiently present in Europe. That is why companies still leave too often and we are less and less able to compete with the United States and China. For more than a decade, the European Parli…

European Central Bank – annual report 2024 (debate)
Mr President, today European politics speaks with a clear voice. The ECB shows strong ambition on climate change, but seems to underestimate the impact of geopolitical tensions on inflation. We therefore call upon you: Take geopolitics seriously. The world is changing fast. War and conflict have shown over and over again in recent years how they can fuel inflation and disrupt our economy. The ener…

European Central Bank – annual report 2024 (debate)
Mr President, Mrs Lagarde, Europe was once a continent of stability, where hard work was rewarded, where your savings grew and where you could plan for the future. You could set aside part of your salary every month for a bigger purpose – a house, a pension or a well-deserved holiday. Thanks to a decent interest rate, that goal came closer step by step. But that certainty is gone. More and more pe…

General budget of the European Union for the financial year 2025 – all sections (debate)
Mr President, it is time to open our eyes to the harsh reality. Our security is under pressure and economic prosperity is no longer self-evident. This requires a budget that is ready for the future. We can no longer spend two-thirds of our budget on agriculture and cohesion. We need to invest heavily in defence, get a grip on migration and stimulate innovation. These are the real challenges of tod…
