Thank you, we will put this in the Bureau for review and examine – it is a borderline story – whether it is hate speech and can be defined in this way.

Before I pass the floor to the next speaker, I would like to explain one point of the Rules we have for the blue card. Ms Ohisalo asked for a blue card when the blue card of another person was already asked. You have to ask for the blue card with the original speaker, not when the blue card is already raised by another. Just to explain.

Mr Gotink, there is a blue card from Gordan Bosanac. I have to explain, Mr Buda, that it is not possible to ask within the same political group – so EPP cannot ask EPP. And you are on the catch-the-eye list. There is a blue card. Mr Gotink, do you accept this from Mr Bosanac?

I would like to remind you once again that everyone has the opportunity to ask a question about the blue card procedure. So before there is a big protest: It was deliberately wanted that we come here more to a debate in the debates on a key topic. I believe that this can be achieved quite well with the questions about the blue card procedure, as long as the debate is fair and reasonable.

Thank you very much. I remind you that it's normally not allowed to have some haptical things in your hand – books or keys or other things. We are a Parliament, and we talk and do not show symbols.

Sorry, Minister. Please, colleagues, show a little bit of respect for the speaker. We have here a minister talking to us and you are talking as loud as never before. Sorry, if you have to say something important, please go outside. But please, here in the room, listen to the speaker.
