Verification of credentials

Thank you very much. Your amendments were declared inadmissible according to Rule 188(1)(a) of the Rules of Procedure, as they did not directly relate to the text that they sought to amend. In fact, your amendments were aiming at repealing the directives, while the Commission proposal is only proposing to postpone the date from which the Member States are to apply certain corporate sustainability reporting and due diligence requirements. They were never published because they were ruled inadmissible. So there you have your answer.

Conclusions of the European Council meeting of 20 March 2025 (debate)

Madam President! War in Europe is no longer something we read about in history books. It's reality. Ukraine is fighting in the fourth year for their freedom, for ours. Denmark takes responsibility. The front states are taking responsibility, and now the rest of Europe must come along. We have to make up our minds whether or not we are going to defend our continent. We cannot defend our values with half-measures and empty promises. If we want a strong Europe, we need action. It requires armament. It requires investment, and it requires the will to stand together. The European Commission has made a good proposal and the Council should support it. Not next year, not in five years, but now. We cannot continue to place responsibility on those who live closest to the war. We must share the burden if we want to share freedom. We must not doubt. We must stand firm and we must stand firm, we must stand united in Europe. I believe that Europe can, if we want to.
