Señor presidente, tengo un minuto tan corto como son los minutos de silencio. Pero, si guardáramos un minuto de silencio por cada víctima de Putin, no pronunciaríamos una palabra esta mañana. Y, si leyéramos la lista de los asesinados por Putin, no acabaríamos en cuatro horas. Esto no es una guerra, esto es un genocidio. Esto es un crimen contra la humanidad y no está ocurriendo a las puertas de Europa, está ocurriendo en Europa, aquí y ahora.  Los ucranianos, hoy, son tan europeístas como fueron los franceses o los alemanes después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Y por los mismos motivos. A los jóvenes les están diciendo que no hay paz sin pagar un precio. A los demócratas, que la libertad se gana cada día. Y, a los europeos, que hay quien está dispuesto a morir por aquello que el  No habrá paz hasta que no derrotemos al tirano. Europa es la esperanza de aquellos pueblos que son masacrados.

Herr Präsident, verehrter Herr Hoher Beauftragter, verehrte Frau Präsidentin, verehrte Kolleginnen und Kollegen! In wenigen Tagen – viele Kolleginnen und Kollegen haben es gesagt – jährt sich der verbrecherische Angriff Russlands auf die Ukraine zum ersten Mal, und ich kann mich nur in Achtung verneigen vor der Tapferkeit und dem Freiheitswillen des ukrainischen Volkes.  Es ist die Aufgabe der EU – Josep Borrell hat es gesagt –, diesen Freiheitswillen zu stärken, indem wir der Ukraine die Mittel geben, die sie brauchen: finanzielle Mittel, humanitäre Hilfe, militärische Hilfe. Mir ist wichtig, alle diese Dinge zu betonen, denn sie gehören zusammen. Und vor diesem Hintergrund frage ich mich schon, welche Funktion die zahlreichen Aufforderungen zu Waffenlieferungen an Deutschland hatten und auch noch haben – viele davon in diesem Plenum. Nachdem die Voraussetzungen geschaffen worden sind, nämlich ein gemeinsames Vorgehen der NATO-Verbündeten, liefert Deutschland Leopard-2-Panzer im Dutzend und Leopard‑1‑Panzer in den Hunderten. Und wo sind die Verbündeten? Nach den Zusagen der Verbündeten – der sogenannten Panzerkoalition – befragt, sagt der deutsche Verteidigungsminister: Das ist nicht so berauschend. Und damit wir uns nicht missverstehen: Im Deutschen ist das ein ironischer Ausdruck dafür, dass die Zusagen bisher ausgesprochen übersichtlich sind.  Polen, Norwegen und Portugal helfen, aber da geht noch viel mehr. Denn die Unterstützung für die Ukraine muss eine gemeinsame Aufgabe sein. Und wenn Deutschland dies entsprechend seiner Möglichkeiten tut, dann sollten die Verbündeten aufhören, sich dahinter zu verstecken.

Voorzitter, commissievoorzitter von der Leyen, de oorlog in Oekraïne woedt al bijna een jaar, met veel menselijk drama en leed tot gevolg. Ook wij ondervinden daar de gevolgen van. Ik denk dat we het er allemaal over eens kunnen zijn dat deze oorlog moet stoppen, op enkele sprekers na, die wellicht door autoritaire regimes worden betaald en die ik niet bij naam zal noemen. De enige oplossing is een overwinning voor Oekraïne en een Europa met haar op de tanden. Wij moeten ervoor zorgen dat Oekraïne onverwijld de middelen krijgt die zij nodig heeft, waaronder straaljagers, tanks en munitie. Voorts moeten we een Europa tot stand brengen dat haar op de tanden heeft. Verschillende lidstaten vragen zich momenteel af hoe zij hun defensie beter kunnen inrichten. Deze kwestie moet echter op EU-niveau worden geregeld. Mevrouw von der Leyen, wij moeten onverwijld een defensie-unie en een Europese krijgsmacht tot stand brengen. Ten slotte zitten we inmiddels aan het tiende sanctiepakket. Wij beschikken over een lijst van zesduizend namen, maar voegen niettemin aan elk nieuw pakket slechts enkele banken en namen toe. Wij moeten deze zesduizend namen toevoegen. Laten we samen tegen Poetin zeggen: “Poetin, je zult de oorlog nooit winnen!”

Mr President, President von der Leyen, High Representative, one year after the start of the war, we have to say clearly thank you to the people of Ukraine. The fight of the people of Ukraine is heroic. It is an inspiration to all of us. It is an inspiration to the free world. And we have the duty to say thank you.  Our second duty is as long as the people of Ukraine are fighting we have to help them. We have to support them with all we can. Soon, fast. Because between the time we make a decision and the moment support gets on the ground, time passes. So we need to accelerate the speed of our decisions.  The choice is not between war and peace. War is a terrible thing. None of us like war. We all want peace. But the choice is between fighting or surrendering. And as long as the people of Ukraine are fighting, it is our duty to stand by their side. And it is also our duty to tell to the people of Europe that Russia is failing. Russia is losing militarily, economically, politically and morally. Russia is talking about an imperialistic past which is long gone. We are building together a future for the people of Ukraine, for the people of Europe, and we are building it together. That’s the difference.

Signor Presidente, onorevoli colleghi, signora Presidente von der Leyen, signor Alto rappresentante Borrell, a un anno dalla criminale invasione di Putin, la Russia non è riuscita a piegare la resistenza del popolo ucraino. L'Ucraina lotta, lotta per l'indipendenza e per gli stessi valori di democrazia e di libertà. E tuttavia i nostri aiuti non sono riusciti a fermare l'aggressione e abbiamo il dovere, colleghi, il dovere di incrementare il nostro sostegno a Kiev. E allora vale la pena chiederci qui oggi quanto stanno costando al popolo ucraino le nostre indecisioni, per esempio sugli aiuti militari? Quanto è costato alla nostra credibilità internazionale? Quanto costano le parole inopportune come quelle che abbiamo ascoltato ieri, vergognose, da Silvio Berlusconi, contro Zelensky? Io, credo, molto. E allora, accanto alle grandi risorse mobilitate, le nostre scelte devono essere accompagnate da scelte politiche coraggiose per punire gli atti criminali di Putin contro la popolazione e per sostenere con ogni mezzo la difesa dell'integrità territoriale ucraina e garantirle un futuro all'interno della nostra Unione.

Mr President, this war can be stopped tomorrow if Mr Putin will decide to withdraw his troops from Ukraine. However, since it is not realistic, the only way to end this international crime is to defeat Russia in the battlefield. The first year of a brutal war has shown that the combination of highly motivated Ukrainian defenders and the Western weapons are much stronger than the Russian military capacity. That is why the delivery of the Western weapons is the most crucial factor which can bring the end of this war. I repeat, it depends only on the West how long this bloody war will continue. I am convinced that all the possibilities to help Ukraine to achieve its victory during this year.  For that to happen, the West has to stop being afraid of Russian defeat impact on the future of Russia. On the contrary, in order to have a sustainable peace on European continent, Russians need to be convinced to abandon their nostalgia of an empire. That will happen if Russia will be defeated in Ukraine, if Putin will be brought before the International Criminal Court, and if Ukraine will be invited to join NATO.

Espero, sin embargo, un efecto positivo de las últimas medidas que hemos tomado en materia de petróleo.  Las sanciones, como dice el  Es muy conveniente que muchos de los países que han condenado la agresión se sumen también a nuestras sanciones. Pero aun así, China y la India contribuyen al mantenimiento de la economía rusa.

Veremos el apoyo y el alcance de la nueva Resolución de las Naciones Unidas. Lo que tenemos que hacer es seguir debilitando a la economía rusa para que no siga alimentando una maquinaria de destrucción y muerte.

Arvoisa puhemies, tulee kuluneeksi vuosi Venäjän brutaalista ja rikollisesta hyökkäyksestä Ukrainaan. Tämän sodan aikana Euroopan unioni yhdessä länsiliittouman kanssa on osoittanut ennennäkemätöntä yhtenäisyyttä suhteessa sanktioihin Venäjää kohtaan ja Ukrainan avussa, mutta näitä toimia on voimistettava. Eurooppa oli aivan liian riippuvainen aivan liian pitkään Venäjän energiasta, ja se hidasti tehokkaiden sanktioiden asettamista.  Olen hyvin tyytyväinen, että nyt valmistellaan jo kymmenettä sanktiopakettia. Näitä pakotteita on kovennettava. Samoin aseapua Ukrainaan on nyt vauhditettava, erityisesti raskasta aseistusta ja panssarivaunuja, joista moni jäsenmaa on tehnyt jo lupauksia. Näitä tarvitaan nyt nopeasti Ukrainan avuksi. Ukrainan kansa taistelee vapauden ja demokratian puolesta, ja he tarvitsevat siihen kaiken meidän tukemme. Meidän on tuettava Ukrainaa tässä taistelussa ja tuettava heidän polkuaan kohti Euroopan unionin jäsenyyttä.

Mr President. Thank you, High Representative Borrell, for your leadership on this and for your personal commitment in the past years. We have to stop giving Ukraine just enough not to lose. We need to give Ukraine what it needs to win as soon as possible. That’s our task. Not after the summer. Not next month. Now! We have to stop the incrementalism on both the sanctions and the military support. Now on the tanks, I want to ask you, High Representative, if you can take an initiative to coordinate this, because since the decision about the tanks, we heard, ‘No, not the leased tanks. No, we have some tanks in the mothballs that we want to refurbish’. We need to coordinate this in a European way, in a European spirit, to get these tanks as soon as possible in Ukraine and to also use currently operationally used tanks for that matter. So I would be very appreciative if you could take initiative on that. Thank you. And

Г-н Председател,  какво научихме през тази една година? Първо, военната помощ, когато е дадена навреме, е по-необходима за мира от дипломацията. Второ, мирът е възможен само след като и последният руски агресор напусне украинската земя. Трето, който днес в разгара на войната говори за мир, всъщност помага на Путин. Четвърто, господин Борел, Вие говорихте убедително днес, но така трябваше да говорите преди една година в Москва. Поуката е, че мирът е невъзможен докато Путин е в Кремъл.  И накрая, надявам се, че в българския парламент ще се намерят достойни депутати, които ще поискат импийчмънт на проруския български президент.

Domnule președinte, domnule Înalt Reprezentant, vreau să încep prin a vă felicita, domnule Borrell, pentru că în intervenția dumneavoastră ați avut această declarație extraordinară, și anume aceea de a pronunța cuvântul pace. Eu nu sunt de acord cu ce a spus colegul meu mai înainte, că dacă spunem pace îl ajutăm pe Putin. Nu, ajutăm să nu mai moară oameni. Și da, trebuie să faceți această intervenție la ONU.  Putin a omorât prin atacul Ucrainei suficienți oameni. Nu sunt de acord nici cu ce s-a spus, că armele nu armele ajută, nu omoară oameni. Armele omoară oameni. De aceea, domnule Borrell, mergeți pe această cale. Ținem legătura, ca Uniunea Europeană, și cu NATO, pentru că știm bine, Moldova este acum deja supravegheată de Putin și trebuie să dăm importanță și Moldovei.  Țara mea este la graniță cu Ucraina. Am ajutat Ucraina, România a ajutat Ucraina, Uniunea Europeană a ajutat cetățenii de acolo, dar trebuie să găsim o cale de oprire a acestui dezastru și a morții a mii de oameni.

Herr Präsident! Seit einem Jahr tobt der Krieg in der Ukraine, das heißt, seit einem Jahr sterben die Menschen in der Ukraine. Ein Jahr Krieg bedeutet auch ein Jahr brutaler Machtkampf zwischen der NATO und Russland auf dem Rücken des Volkes in der Ukraine und der Völker weltweit. Gestern erklärte Herr Stoltenberg, dass dieser Krieg seit 2014 absehbar war. Dann muss man fragen: Warum wurde er nicht mit allen Mitteln verhindert?  Ja, Russland hat den Angriff auf die Ukraine gestartet und gehört dafür verurteilt. Aber was macht die NATO seither, außer real und verbal aufzurüsten? Hören Sie auf damit! Warum haben Sie geschwiegen, als Großbritannien und die USA die Friedensverhandlungen in der Türkei letztes Jahr torpediert haben? Mit Solidarität mit dem angegriffenen Volk hat Ihr Vorgehen überhaupt nichts zu tun. Seien Sie wirklich solidarisch mit den Menschen in der Ukraine und hören Sie auf, Ihre geopolitischen Interessen über das Leben der Menschen zu stellen!

Κύριε Πρόεδρε, εδώ και ένα χρόνο η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση και οι κυβερνήσεις εμφανίζουν τον ιμπεριαλιστικό πόλεμο στην Ουκρανία ως μονόπρακτο έργο. Όμως είναι το αποτέλεσμα μιας πολύχρονης πορείας κλιμάκωσης της σύγκρουσης ανάμεσα σε ΝΑΤΟ, Ηνωμένες Πολιτείες, Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση και την καπιταλιστική Ρωσία στο έδαφος των μεταξύ τους σφοδρών μονοπωλιακών ανταγωνισμών. Θύματά τους ο ουκρανικός και ο ρωσικός λαός, που για επτά δεκαετίες στη Σοβιετική Ένωση ζούσαν ειρηνικά. Ψευτοδιλήμματα περί δημοκρατικής Δύσης από τη μία και ολοκληρωτικής Ρωσίας από την άλλη. Και οι δύο πλευρές είναι καπιταλιστικές. Το Κομμουνιστικό Κόμμα της Ελλάδας έχει καταδικάσει τις ευρωατλαντικές επεμβάσεις και το πραξικόπημα στην Ουκρανία το 2014 και την απαράδεκτη εισβολή της Ρωσίας και αγωνίζεται ενάντια στην εντεινόμενη ελληνική εμπλοκή της συγκυβέρνησης της Νέας Δημοκρατίας με τη στήριξη της νατοϊκής Αριστεράς του ΣΥΡΙΖΑ, τη μετατροπή της χώρας σε αμερικανο-νατοϊκό ορμητήριο και στόχο αντιποίνων. Οι λαοί να δυναμώσουν την αυτοτελή τους πάλη για απεμπλοκή από τους ιμπεριαλιστικούς σχεδιασμούς, για τα δικά τους συμφέροντα, τη δική τους εξουσία.

Signor Presidente, onorevoli colleghi, quando sono arrivato qui in Parlamento stamattina pensavo di trovare un'Aula piena di europarlamentari, di ascoltare interventi tutti mirati a riaffermare la posizione che il Parlamento europeo ha sempre avuto: quella di difesa dell'Ucraina e di condanna dell'invasione russa. Spiace constatare che tanti colleghi hanno scelto di non partecipare a questo dibattito – l'Aula è tristemente semideserta –, e spiace constatare che alcuni colleghi hanno preferito la polemica politica alla riflessione, invece, su quello che significa un anno di guerra. Forza Italia ha sempre rimarcato, in ogni suo voto e in ogni suo atto, la condanna nei confronti dell'invasione dell'Ucraina. Non c'è un solo atto in questo Parlamento europeo che vada in maniera differente. Spiace constatare che alcuni colleghi socialisti, anziché utilizzare il tempo concesso loro per parlare dell'invasione della Ucraina, l'hanno utilizzato per attaccare l'Italia e per attaccare un leader politico come Silvio Berlusconi. Hanno sbagliato e spero che lo capiscano.

Panie Przewodniczący! Rok inwazji Putina na Ukrainę to rok ogromnej tragedii i jeszcze większego smutku. Miliony osób uciekły ze swojego kraju, a tysiące zostały zabite, brutalnie zabite, jak czternastolatek ze swoim psem zamordowany podczas spaceru w Bachmucie dwa tygodnie temu. Zdjęcie wysłał mi fotograf ze Śląska, który dokumentuje na miejscu zbrodnie Rosjan. Wołodymyr Kliczko, który był jednym z gości mojego panelu w Brukseli, powiedział, że to jest wojna cywilizacyjna, że Rosja traktuje Ukrainę jako coś gorszego i dlatego chce totalnej likwidacji języka, historii, kultury i społeczeństwa.  Chcemy pokoju. Sam określam siebie jako pacyfistę, ale trudno nim być, gdy niczym nieusprawiedliwiona wojna toczy się tuż obok naszych granic. Jedyny pokój, jaki możemy zaakceptować w tym Parlamencie, to zwycięstwo Ukrainy nad Rosją i więcej broni dla Ukrainy.

Vážený pán predsedajúci, na začiatku ma fascinuje, že pri takejto téme, ako je rok vojny na Ukrajine, kolegovia z EPP to využívajú trápne na to, aby útočili na nás ako svojich politických oponentov.  Ale myslím si, že treba hovoriť aj o veciach, ako je obeť občanov Európskej únie, ktorí žijú na hraniciach s Ukrajinou, a to konkrétne napríklad občania Slovenskej republiky, Poľska, ale takisto Rumunska, ktorí otvorili svoje domovy a pomáhali ako dobrovoľníci a pomáhali utečencom, ktorí prichádzali z Ukrajiny, ženám a deťom. A naozaj, častokrát to boli ľudia, ktorí sami nemali veľa z toho svojho a dali aj to posledné, aby týmto utečencom pomohli, keď vláda nemohla. Čiže ja sa im chcem veľmi pekne poďakovať a spomenúť aj ich v tejto diskusii, pretože je to veľmi dôležité vidieť, že naozaj čo si ľudia myslia.  A myslím si, že títo ľudia nechcú hovoriť o zbraniach, chcú hovoriť o mieri. A preto si myslím, že aj my ako politici by sme mali hovoriť aj o tom, že mierový projekt, akým je Európska únia, by mal ponúknuť mier aj pri boji na Ukrajine a pomôcť ukončiť túto vojnu. Pretože smrť a utrpenie tých žien a detí, ktorí umierajú každý deň na Ukrajine, je hrozná.

Mr President, dear colleagues, most of us agree that the EU and our partners should increase and speed up support to Ukraine.  As High Representative, you said to our military aid, it must include everything that is needed for Ukraine to defeat the Russia army and regain full control of its territory, including air defence systems, fighter jets and long-range missile systems.  As the President of Commission said, we need to implement a new sanctions package. But this is not enough. The EU also need to take a stronger position on any individual or entity that is helping Russia to avoid imposed sanctions. Any company in Europe that is trying to profit from the war situation should be placed under criminal investigation, have its assets frozen and confiscated, and its owners tried in the court as supporters of terrorism.  At the same time, we must show that EU is ready to start negotiation with Ukraine for accession to the EU process this year.

Sute de mii de ruși au părăsit Rusia și au devenit refugiați, speriați de mobilizare și represiuni politice. Putin pare însă susținut de oligarhi. Au pierdut averi uriașe din cauza războiului, dar tac. Potrivit cercetărilor sociale, la un an de la invazia Ucrainei, Putin nu ar câștiga alegerile astăzi. Iată un scurt sumar al acestui an de război.  În oglindă, avem o Ucraină condusă de „liderul moral al lumii democratice”, Volodîmîr Zelenski, o țară care luptă eroic pentru viitorul ei european, și o Uniune Europeană onorată să își deschidă porțile pentru acest popor de viteji. UE nu va cunoaște liniștea până când toți cei vinovați de crimele din Ucraina nu vor da socoteală în fața justiției, pentru toate aceste vieți frânte.
