you should not be able to set the agenda or frame our political responses let alone frame our future. you should stop putting people against each other and stop lying about migrants and refugees and you should stop confusing migrants and terrorists.
it is beyond all dignity and sense.
smugglers exist because there is a lack of legal pathways.
to externalise borders in the way that some people here want to do is not to save people.
we want to open more legal pathways.
the problem however is that our current policy seems not to be working.
this is together with the negotiation of the mff.
we must strive to defend it and make every effort to further increase its effectiveness.
for example in february two thousand and seventeen we published a staff document to explain our approach.
new alliances are necessary including with big consumer countries especially china and with financial institutions.
finally the commission raised awareness of the importance of language learning through public events like the european day of languages on twenty six september and the national awards of the european language label for innovative language learning projects.
in highlighting the complexity brought about by language diversity and the fundamental importance of language technologies on the road to achieving language equality the report provides food for thought for developing future actions.
and he did his job two years later three years later to see what comes out. and the conclusion is clear the work was fixed the work was done.
good results and even with more capacity to perform in the future.
special times special situation special measures.
inequality is on the rise and of course that goes precisely to those segments of the european social fabric which have been the victims of a long protracted discrimination in history the roma community of course but not only them. let me say that making up the budget is not only a matter in this house for a single european political group and that of course i do favour an
the second thing i wanted to say to you is that in the current dispensation of the european budget there is twenty for social inclusion including in the european social fund.
ever since the great recession got started we socialists have fought all along the way against the recessive austerity and in favour of a european budget in order to fight social exclusion.
mr president subsidiarity and proportionality seem to be the past and president macron if we let him do so will change the structure the strategies and everything of the european union as he
he wants a united states of europe while we european people want a europe of nations of independent nations with sovereignty.
we the majority of europe do not want migration;
on the one side there is my country hungary with the visegrad countries representing clearly the majority of european citizens.
the important thing is that they should speak up much more loudly.
but still if we want to protect europe and our countries and our communities together hungary the visegrad countries and the citizens of europe please speak up where ever you can and support hungary.
so the time really has come for the bank to adopt an up to date responsible taxation policy and that would involve three measures during the exercise of the bank's due diligence particularly for intermediaries which as my colleague hugues bayet said are a particular problem.
it is that point which motivates many of the requests that have been made of the bank.
it is in all of our interests for example that the fiscal capacity of member states is preserved and that the eu's aid policy is not undermined by tax leaking away from developing countries.
firstly we need the bank to make use of the measures contained within the anti money laundering directive and particularly to access the new registers of beneficial ownership of companies.
the bank did in two thousand and nine become a pioneer when it adopted a policy against non cooperative jurisdictions but as we all know that policy has lost many of its teeth as those jurisdictions have creatively complied with the letter of oecd requirements rather than complying with their spirit.
this makes them an indispensable sector in stabilising the european economy and creating jobs and growth in europe.
unfortunately the current instruments are insufficient and do not provide smes especially micro and small enterprises with the necessary means to finance investment.
mr president for as long as i have been a member of the european parliament i have repeatedly called on the member states and the commission to join up their efforts and tackle the root causes of migration which is the only way forward in terms of providing a genuine response to the migration crisis in the eu and in africa. the trust fund launched at the valletta summit on migration is designed to help foster stability in the african regions and contribute to better migration management.
most importantly the fund will help address the root causes of irregular migration by stimulating investment and boosting sustainable growth and through job creation in the african countries where most migrants come from.
we have to ensure accountability transparency and proper management of funds.
we have to ensure well planned investments so that the proposed billions really benefit the citizens through projects which improve education healthcare and infrastructure.
of course the european parliament demands that the commission be fully transparent in all negotiations and that we be provided with timely sectoral impact assessments.
i believe that this opportunity should be used by parliament to strongly support an fta with japan for the following reasons. the european union and japan are industrial giants that share democratic values and together represent.
the economic benefits are clear.
we share similar challenges the rise of china the global financial crisis decreasing demographics and the need to access raw materials and energy sources and to achieve price stability.
in addition we will support bilateral safeguard measures as was the case with the south korea fta to avoid serious injury to sensitive sectors such as automotives electronics aviation and machinery.
therefore i see great potential in further developing trade relations with japan our sixth largest trading partner.
i would like to reiterate that non tariff barriers and public procurement are crucial areas for european businesses where japan needs to make significant concessions.
however unfortunately practice shows that there are always companies operating within the eu that will try to circumvent the rules to gain questionable advantages.
they create many jobs in europe and make important investments that is true.
more than a year.
much of the credit for that goes to the rapporteur and the ecr will support this report in plenary.
it is not just motherhood and apple pie to use the american expression but it is of some real value.
there are already countries in the process whose political systems give less than full throated support to the democratic freedoms and plurality needed for an effective university sector and the admission of belarus would give even more cause for concern over the confidence we want to have in the process.
the legacy is repression isolation and corruption and there is an expectation of the new transition government although it is chaired by a former vice president of mugabe mr mnangagwa.
it is probably a good thing that precisely at this time when we are reconsidering our strategic partnership with africa we should get the chance to prove what we can actually mean in terms of reconstituting a democratic state in the southern part of the african continent and helping it along both democratically and economically.
zimbabwe has tremendous possibilities that it could use in its relationship with europe.
is there any other strategy?
this is a disaster.
it has to be solved somehow.
it is not the responsibility of my country hungary.
we are not the ones who are going to solve it. we are going to continue protecting our country and protecting the schengen borders of europe in accordance with our obligations.
first i would like to commend your efforts to increase the overall road safety by the initiative to include new advanced safety features into cars and trucks.
thirdly and finally i do regret that your proposal for a regulation on electronic freight transport information did not come a little bit earlier in the first mobility package because it could have served as a solid legal base for the enforcement part of the lex specialis on posting or for the cabotage directive.
now we must make sure that they are going to be accessible to every future car owner because safety must not become a privilege of luxury car owners.
but i would like to ask you mr giegold what do you think will happen if countries like sweden denmark and poland are outside the banking union?
mr president on behalf of my group i request that this package of reports be struck from the agenda of this session.
i think that this house should show some measure of humility and some respect for the democratic process.
we all know that ireland has rejected the lisbon treaty and so it is of some wonderment to me that this house persists in debating that matter.
it is not democratically appropriate that this house should set aside the verdict of ireland or that this house should be used to ratchet up pressure on ireland in the coming months to adopt a treaty that is clearly not in our interests or in the interests of the european people.
very often in economically difficult times young people unfortunately get into drug abuse.
is it possible that the european social fund could be used in a targeted way to try and help young people considering the problems that this causes not only to themselves as individuals but to their families and to their communities and given the very severe effect it can have on communities
the eu is built on the notion that we are stronger together and that fundamental rights and values must never be an issue up for compromise.
however i am worried about the current developments at the same time. we see attacks on independent media on lgbtqi people we see attacks on women we see attacks on migrants.
i welcome of course the new rule of law report presented last week but we need to go further.
this resolution suggests important measurable goals involvement of civil society and a broader scope to also include fundamental rights and democracy. we must make sure that the eu does not remain a toothless tiger because this report is good but we must make sure to provide it with teeth.
one of the best ways of providing the tiger with teeth is through stronger conditionality linked to the budget.
