DA Speech

Tackling non-tariff and non-tax barriers in the single market (debate)

Watch

Mr. President! The EU's single market provides jobs and growth. It also ensures good consumer protection, it ensures a green transition and it ensures fair and social progress. I believe that this is one of the greatest achievements of the European Union with the single market. This is the engine of our collaboration. In many ways, the internal market is absolutely crucial for us. We also need the…

Implementation of the Toy Safety Directive (debate)

Watch

Mr. President! I would like to start by congratulating Mr Benifei on an extremely important and good report. In fact, it can be said quite simply. All toys purchased in and for the EU must be safe. Unfortunately, today we see that this is not the case. Toys from third countries, in particular, are being sold on online marketplaces that do not comply with our internal market rules at all. Parents c…

Digital Services Act (continuation of debate)

Watch

Mr President, I would like to thank my colleagues so much for a very good and very interesting debate. I really appreciated to listen to all your comments, and what I see and hear is that we are rather united. Of course, we have small differences, but there is big and broad support behind the proposal from the Committee on Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO) with all the associated comm…

Digital Services Act (debate)

Watch

Mr President! Now we are taking back control from the tech giants and bringing our digital EU legislation into the 21st century. We are building on the e-commerce directive that we adopted in 2000. At that time, the world looked very different. Facebook didn't exist, Mark Zuckerberg hadn't even got the idea, and Steve Jobs and Apple hadn't yet launched the iPod, let alone thought about the iPhone.…

Preparation of the European Council meeting of 16-17 December 2021 - The EU's response to the global resurgence of Covid-19 and the new emerging Covid variants (debate)

Watch

Mr President! It is deeply worrying that we continue to see new Corona variants creating problems for our health around the world. No one is safe until everyone is safe. That is why we in the European Union also need to do much more than we do today. As far as the EU is concerned, we need to make a huge effort. Here we do not lack vaccines, but we must make a great effort to overcome misinformatio…

Digital Markets Act (debate)

Watch

Madam President! Commissioners, colleagues! Then we are taking back the fight and control from the big tech giants. When we vote later today on the Digital Markets Act, the DMA, we are putting our foot down against the very biggest tech gatekeepers, who have been able to dictate the rules of our Digital Single Market for too long. We in the European Parliament want it to stop now. The rules must b…

Disinformation and the role of social platforms (debate)

Watch

Madam President! Commissioner, ladies and gentlemen. This is an incredibly important debate we are having tonight and I would like to thank the INGE Committee for raising this issue again in this House. Because we are in a situation where we need to do something to regulate social platforms. But let me start somewhere else, because do you remember when we called the social platforms “our virtual a…

EU Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Authority: ensuring a coordinated EU approach for future health crises and the role of the European Parliament in this (debate)

Watch

Madam President! Preparing the EU for the next health crisis is a serious matter. That's why I'm glad we're having a discussion about HERA here today. The way we have dealt with the coronavirus pandemic was indeed reactive. We were naturally acting backwards. Therefore, we need to be better at seeing the health crises before they hit. And we must ensure that we have the necessary production of med…

DA Speech

The future of EU-US relations (debate)

Watch

Mr President! The world needs all democratic forces to stand together, and the EU must therefore keep close to everyone who shares our values. This is not the time to push anyone away. The European Union and the United States share history and values, and there is no doubt that we also share the future. That is why the US is and must be the EU's closest trading partner, cooperation partner and sec…

European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control - Serious cross-border threats to health (debate)

Watch

Mr President! We have learned from the coronavirus crisis. The pandemic exposed and underlined both the strengths and weaknesses of the European Community. When the coronavirus hit Europe, we were too slow to react. We were too poorly prepared and had too few protective equipment, and a large part of our health production was distributed to countries outside the EU. This aggravated the situation. …
