Circularity requirements for vehicle design and management of end-of-life vehicles (debate)

I do not know if it was only the translation into Romanian, but I kept in mind that the term ‘a stupid idea of another political party’ was used. I'll leave that to the translators, see if it was an insult.

Lessons from Budapest Pride: the urgent need for an EU wide anti-discrimination law and defending fundamental rights against right-wing attacks (topical debate)

Madam President, this is what the extreme right does. They push you down the stairs and then they ask you, 'where are you hurting?' They play the victims. This is ridiculous. This is bullying behaviour and in front of bullies there is only one answer: you need to stand proud. You need to stand proud. This is what I saw in Budapest. I saw proud people. Free people. Büszkék voltak, mert szabadok voltak. They were proud because they were free. There were 300 000, you know, and I'm looking at you. They are your kids, your neighbours, your friends. This is the people that were there. Is it so hard to love your own? Is it so hard to love your own people? It is incredible. It is incredible. I saw people who had no protection, but they had their hearts with them. They had their kindness with them. They had a voice which was forbidden. And no, Mr Orbán, nothing was shameful. Nothing was disgraceful. On the contrary, it was something to love. It was something to watch and your heart was filling up. So be proud, people of Hungary. Be proud, Mr Karácsony. Be proud because you showed Europe that you love freedom. Büszkék voltak, mert szabadok voltak.
