Speaker: Roberta Metsola

Language: EN

Dear colleagues, today marks the 28th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide. A day that will live in infamy. An ethnic cleansing campaign that saw nearly 30 000 people forcibly expelled and the brutal murder of over 8 000 people – mostly Muslim men and boys who had sought safety in the Srebrenica enclave. Atrocities so barbaric that they are almost unspeakable, and yet we must speak. We speak to remember the victims. We speak to warn the world of what has happened so that it may never happen again. The genocide of Srebrenica will forever haunt us. 28 years later, we are witnessing increasing genocide denial, more false narratives and more glorification of war criminals. It is our duty to speak out against it, to remind the world of a truth that cannot be denied. Last weekend, we marked 500 days since Russia launched its full-scale military invasion on independent and sovereign Ukraine. A war that has brought to light the cruelty of Putin’s regime, and the return of war crimes and atrocities to our continent. The European Parliament will never turn a blind eye to war crimes. This is how we ensure that nothing like the Srebrenica genocide ever happens again. So on this solemn day, the European Parliament pays tribute to the victims of the Srebrenica genocide and reiterates its solidarity with all the families of all the victims, many of whom are yet to be identified. _______________

Because in Europe, our darkest moments were followed by our brightest. Because 50 years after Auschwitz, there was Srebrenica, and our failure to act was, and remains, one of our deepest sorrows. We were not saviours. We were merely witnesses of Srebrenica. Twenty-eight years later, we are still only witnesses. Last year in Irpin, we witnessed Srebrenica. Last year in Bucha, we witnessed Srebrenica.  So we must go back to Bosnia, to Srebrenica, to learn that difficult and painful lesson: that truth is not compatible with denial, that justice is not compatible with impunity, and that peace is not compatible with aggression.

The genocide perpetrated by Serbian soldiers is regarded as the country’s deepest wound. This shows how important the legal investigation is. More than 20 people have been charged until today and also convicted of genocide. The relatives of the victims have a right to know what had happened to their loved ones. Still not all bodies have been found and recovered. It is intolerable that nationalist agitation, especially by the Serbian and Croatian politicians and individuals, is deliberately being plunged into renewed ethnic conflict and suffering. ‘Never again’ should really mean ‘never again’. Every individual who can, and we at the EU certainly can, should do whatever is needed so that Srebrenica does not happen again.

Resda smo ob razpadanju Jugoslavije videli marsikaj. Videli smo Vukovar, videli smo Škrabinje, Prijedor, Višegrad, Bijeljino in še bi lahko našteval. A Srebrenica, Srebrenica predstavlja grozljivost. To ni samo nekaj grozljivega, temveč groza sama.  Moj spomin kot spomin najstnika na Srebrenico odražata dva strašna prizora. Prvi je ločevanje družin na Potočarih in drugi je posnetek usmrtitve nesrečnih bošnjaških mladeničev, tedaj ne mnogo starejših od mene.  A bolj kot grozljivosti teh prizorov se spomnim neizmernega cinizma, brutalnosti in popolne odsotnosti empatije morilcev. Kot je dejal eden od tožilcev na nürnberških procesih, je vir vsega zla odsotnost empatije, odsotnost človečnosti kot take.  In tako kot je Srebrenica povzročila odsotnost empatije, ta odsotnost empatije žal zaznamuje tudi čas, v katerem živimo. Nekako se zdi, da je opomin Srebrenice in genocida pozabljen, da se to ne more več zgoditi, čeprav smo že mnogokrat dejali nikoli več, a se ta nikoli več kar naprej ponavlja kot večno vračanje zla.  Sporočilo Srebrenice je opomin za današnji čas, česa je človek zmožen in sposoben, ko si na izzive sodobnosti odgovori s smrtonosno mešanico skrajnega nacionalizma, odsotnosti empatije, za katero poskrbi propaganda nadzorovanih in nesvobodnih medijev.  Zato je boj za temeljne svoboščine in pravice, na katerih temelji tudi naša EU, vedno pomemben in relevanten. In tako kot je pomembno poudariti, da je odgovornost za genocid vedno individualna, je potrebno tudi hkrati poudariti, da vsem, ki zanikajo genocid v Srebrenici, ki poveličujejo vojne zločine, ki ne zmorejo obsoditi vojnih zločinov in genocida, ni mesta v naši Uniji.

Some wounds never heal, but by commemorating we pay respect to the victims and their families and to Bosniak society. We give them a voice, a voice saying loud and clear that justice does not tolerate impunity, not for war crimes or genocide, not for denying or glorifying these atrocities. It hurts that this message is still badly needed, day by day.  Some wounds never heal. But let us remember them and learn from them to decisively stand up against the first signs of division, discrimination or maltreatment and to prevent genocide from ever happening again.

Уважаеми колеги, няма по добра метафора за тази политика от нерешителните действия на мироопазващите сили на ООН, предали безславно града на настъпващите сръбски военнопрестъпници. Жертвите на Сребреница са жертви на великосръбския шовинизъм, винаги подкрепян от Кремъл. Не забравяйте това.  Югославия, този концлагер на поробените народи, между които освен босненци, хървати, словенци, македонски българи, македонци и други такива, беше твърде дълго възприеман от Западна Европа като модел за социализъм с човешко лице. Разпадът на този модел показа истинското грозно лице на този режим. Отново, не забравяйте къде беше създаден и кой го подкрепяше досега. Геноцид и етническо прочистване следваха разпада на Югославия за всеки народ, който не желаеше да бъде част от сръбския свят или сръбския мир, правите връзката предполагам? Геноцидите в бивша Югославия не започват от Сребреница, а може би Сребреница беше последният, но преди това беше Вуковар. Завършвам, уважаема г-жо Председател, и македонската кървава Коледа на 7 януари 1945 г. Официалните власти в Белград отказват да нарекат събитията в Сребреница с истинските им имена - геноцид. Докато това продължава да бъде официална сръбска позиция ние не трябва да правим отстъпки пред властите в Скопие, пак казвам, директно свързани с Кремъл и Москва. Помнете жертвите на сръбския геноцид. Вечна памет! Помнете Сребреница.

We remember the victims and we say ‘never again’. Never again shall the international community turn a blind eye to mass murder, ethnic cleansing and genocide. Never again shall Europe fail to support the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina.  This is more important than ever as we see the aggressiveness of the President of Republika Srpska. Let us use this occasion to call on President Dodik, as well as the governments of Serbia and Russia, to recognise the genocide. Let us remember the victims of Srebrenica and make sure that Bosnia moves forward in peace and prosperity.

Intimidation, diffamation en ligne, emprisonnements, tortures, disparitions, assassinats. C’est malheureusement ce à quoi nombre de journalistes par le monde sont exposés. Nous devons dénoncer ces faits et nous devons donner tout l’appui possible aux journalistes qui s’exposent, eux et leur famille, à des représailles afin de divulguer la vérité. Dans ce rapport – et permettez-moi d’ailleurs de remercier très chaleureusement mes collègues rapporteurs fictifs pour le travail d’équipe que nous avons pu réaliser – nous faisons de nombreuses et diverses recommandations afin de renforcer la politique de l’Union européenne en matière de protection des journalistes. Nous évoquons ainsi, entre autres: l’éducation aux médias; le combat contre la diffusion de messages qui incitent à la violence contre les journalistes; un plan d’urgence à suivre par les délégations de l’Union, qui inclut visite aux journalistes en situation à risque, visites en prison et assistance aux procès; l’assistance aux pays tiers qui en font la demande pour concevoir des cadres juridiques favorables à la promotion du journalisme et à la protection des journalistes; enfin, des échanges et des formations pour les journalistes et les juges concernés. Je relèverai encore un dernier point. La désinformation et la propagande aujourd’hui utilisées à très grande échelle, notamment par les régimes autoritaires, mettent en danger la profession même de journaliste, et ceci partout dans le monde. Les vérificateurs de faits jouent aussi un rôle primordial et permettent de soutenir la crédibilité du journalisme d’investigation. Ils sont particulièrement exposés aux représailles. Or il est primordial que les citoyens sachent qu’ils ont accès à des informations de confiance. Si les citoyens doutent de la possibilité même d’obtenir des informations crédibles, ils n’auront plus confiance dans la démocratie. Les citoyens ont le droit d’être informés, les journalistes celui d’informer.

Zato je dobro da danas raspravljamo o ovom izvješću. Na samom početku krize izostaje koordinirani odgovor na europskoj razini, što je dovelo, između ostalog, do zatvaranja granice i ograničavanje izvoza medicinske opreme u druge države članice.  Takva situacija bila je jasan pokazatelj koliko je neophodan zajednički europski odgovor na zdravstvene krize. Zajednička nabava cjepiva upravo je primjer takvog odgovora Uz sve zamjerke koje ćemo i danas čuti, ona je omogućila da manje, gospodarski slabije razvijene države članice, koje nemaju vlastitu proizvodnju, dobiju pristup cjepivu u isto vrijeme kao i one veće i razvijenije.  Time smo pokazali da u Europskoj uniji nema i ne smije biti građana prvog i drugog reda.  Pandemija nam je također ukazala na važnost inovacija te smatram da je veoma dobro za naš kontinent što smo imali europsku tvrtku koja je razvila uspješno cjepivo. To pokazuje koliko je za globalnu konkurentnost i otpornost EU-a na svjetske krize, kao i njenu stratešku autonomiju, važno imati poticajan okvir za istraživanje i inovacije, uz snažnu zaštitu intelektualnog vlasništva kao nužan preduvjet.  Pored navedenog, istaknuo bih dva problema koja predstavljaju naslijeđe pandemije s kojim ćemo se boriti u godinama koje dolaze. Mentalno zdravlje mladih i dugotrajni COVID.  Potrebna nam je zajednička akcija ulaganje u zdravstvenu skrb na europskoj razini kako bismo pomogli stotinama tisuća ljudi koji se s ovim problemima suočavaju. Oni se ne smiju osjećati izoliranima i ostavljenima.  Odgovornost je svih država članica da to spriječe uz maksimalnu pomoć s europske razine.  Na kraju, zahvalio bih se izvjestiteljici na mukotrpnom radu na ovom izvješću koje sadrži sve bitne elemente i pouke vezano uz COVID-19 te vas sve pozivam da ga podržite.

In questa relazione ci sono proposte concrete per preparare l'Unione e gli Stati membri a proteggere con più efficacia la salute di fronte a possibili future emergenze sanitarie. Innanzitutto il diritto ad una sanità pubblica di qualità per tutti. Poi la collaborazione e il lavoro coordinato per il monitoraggio e la sorveglianza epidemiologica, ma anche le grandi potenzialità di un'Europa unita per la ricerca scientifica, per gli acquisti congiunti di vaccini, dispositivi medici e farmaci, così da renderli accessibili a tutti e a prezzi equi. Abbiamo chiesto maggiore trasparenza in tutti gli ambiti, sia nel campo della ricerca e sviluppo, dove i costi reali, anche delle aziende farmaceutiche private, dovranno essere resi pubblici e servire da base per la determinazione del prezzo, ma anche nella negoziazione dei contratti, in particolare dove i fondi pubblici sono interessati; abbiamo chiesto che venga creata un'infrastruttura pubblica di ricerca per sopperire alle mancanze del mercato e operare nell'interesse dei cittadini. I fondi pubblici, poi, dovranno avere un adeguato ritorno per i cittadini, in particolare per la disponibilità dei farmaci a prezzi equi e la loro commercializzazione in tutti gli Stati membri. Sugli aspetti sociali ci siamo concentrati sulle porzioni più fragili della popolazione, abbiamo inserito proposte concrete e interventi mirati per mitigare le conseguenze sulle persone già marginalizzate, sulle donne, sui giovani che hanno pagato un prezzo alto, penso in particolare alla salute mentale. Questo lavoro potrebbe essere una svolta per le capacità europee e nazionali di reagire in tempi di crisi, non solo sanitari. Il voto di domani sarà complicato. Come sempre si poteva fare meglio, ma come socialisti voteremo a favore di un testo comunque ambizioso, consapevoli che gli interessi dei cittadini vengono prima delle convenienze politiche. Questa relazione, cari colleghi, è un'occasione unica per continuare anche nella costruzione dell'Unione europea della salute. Ci auguriamo che il senso di responsabilità prevalga, dimostrando di essere all'altezza del compito che i cittadini europei ci hanno affidato.

El recuerdo de las víctimas y el reconocimiento de la extraordinaria responsabilidad de los ciudadanos en la lucha contra la pandemia deben estar muy presentes a la hora de tomar decisiones para prevenir situaciones similares. No estamos exentos de amenazas futuras para la salud pública a nivel global: por eso mismo, debemos estar más y mejor preparados de lo que estuvimos en marzo del año 2020.  Y esto es precisamente lo que traemos hoy aquí, a esta Cámara: un paquete de medidas para luchar contra las futuras pandemias sobre la base de tres pilares fundamentales. En primer lugar, una futura Unión Europea de la Salud fuerte y resiliente. En segundo lugar, una autonomía estratégica en materia de salud para no depender de terceros países. Y, finalmente, una mejor coordinación entre los Estados miembros a la hora de adoptar medidas drásticas que vulneran los derechos básicos de los ciudadanos, porque no olvidemos que la salud no entiende de fronteras y es un bien común que debemos preservar entre todos.  Así que, señorías, acabo como he empezado: volviendo a recordar a los millones de ciudadanos fallecidos durante estos años por la pandemia y reivindicando así el establecimiento de un día europeo en recuerdo de las víctimas de la COVID-19, tal y como solicitamos en este informe, para que los años que nos queden en el futuro no nos olvidemos de ellos y, por eso mismo, solicito que apoyen este informe.

Parmi ces dernières, la condamnation des pratiques de triage à l’hôpital, l’appel à financer massivement nos systèmes de soins publics et à résoudre la pénurie de soignants, et l’importance de tirer les leçons des mauvaises utilisations qui ont été faites du certificat COVID numérique de l’UE par certains États membres. Mais ce rapport appelle aussi à mettre en place les mesures nécessaires à l’intégration de l’approche One Health en Europe. C’est un point extrêmement important que nous pouvons contrôler pour prévenir de futures crises sanitaires. Et la première est déjà en cours: l’antibiorésistance. Toutefois, ces points positifs ne devraient pas occulter le fait que la leçon la plus importante de cette pandémie n’est pas reprise dans ce rapport. Nous avons nié l’accès aux soins à la majorité de la population mondiale. Et pourquoi? Pour protéger les profits de l’industrie pharmaceutique qui, soulignons-le, ne nous ont pas fait de cadeaux durant cette pandémie. Les Verts ont donc déposé des amendements pour corriger le bilan trompeur établi à cet égard. Si ces amendements venaient à ne pas être votés, nous ne pourrions pas soutenir un rapport qui ne tire pas la leçon principale de la résolution de cette crise sanitaire mondiale.

A small number of MEPs asked for transparency, but we were blocked every step of the way. We asked that the Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen, who negotiated contracts with Pfizer via text messages, appear before our committee and answer questions. That did not happen. Ursula von der Leyen signed contracts worth over EUR 71 billion to purchase 4.6 billion doses of so—called ‘vaccines’. We asked to see the COVID contracts in their full and unredacted version, and we were denied access.  The report also negates the side and adverse effects suffered by people who got injected with the anti-COVID vaccines. The report also praises the EU Digital Green Certificate, which was used by some governments in Europe to severely violate the fundamental rights of all the people.  If these political groups have not learned anything from the mistakes made during the pandemic, I really hope that the European citizens will learn from this report not to elect the EPP, S&D and Renew into any office in 2024.

Purtroppo, quando la pandemia è scoppiata, nessun paese europeo era pronto ad affrontare un fenomeno del genere: mancavano medici, infermieri, mascherine, respiratori e altri dispositivi sanitari. Dobbiamo assolutamente imparare dagli errori del passato ed essere pronti in caso di nuove pandemie. È per questo che è necessario investire per rafforzare il nostro sistema sanitario: non possiamo più dipendere dalla Cina o da altri paesi per la fornitura di materiali. L'Europa deve essere completamente autonoma nella produzione di mascherine, di farmaci e di dispositivi medici. Dobbiamo dare maggiore attenzione a tutti gli operatori del comparto sanitario che hanno lavorato senza sosta, e in alcuni casi, purtroppo, perdendo anche la loro vita. È indispensabile aggiornare e tenere sempre aggiornati i piani pandemici nazionali. Dobbiamo, soprattutto, garantire ai malati oncologici le cure e soprattutto in questi casi di emergenza. Imparare dagli errori del passato significa anche chiedere maggior trasparenza per quanto riguarda i contratti dei vaccini stipulati dalla Commissione europea. Dobbiamo evitare che il certificato COVID venga reso obbligatorio, come richiede l'OMS. Cari colleghi, facciamo tesoro degli errori fatti, lo dobbiamo a tutti coloro che hanno perso la vita a causa di questo virus.

Zpráva je zcela nekritická k machinacím při uzavírání smluv o hromadných nákupech vakcín. Vyhýbá se otázkám, jak je možné, že dosud nebyly smlouvy plně uvolněny ani nám, ani veřejnosti. Opomíjí, jak byly vyjednány přes mobil předsedkyně Komise za pomocí SMS zpráv. Už vůbec neřeší odsouzeníhodné chování společnosti Pfizer k nám jako k poslancům tohoto orgánu. Zcela opomenuta byla i pochybení členských států při tom, jak propagovaly často zavádějícím způsobem vlastní očkovací kampaně. Samotnou kapitolou je pak neřešení patentového práva jak uvnitř EU, tak vně, kdy si pravicový válec silou vynutil, aby nebyla dodržena ani předchozí usnesení Parlamentu, která vyzývají alespoň k nějaké reformě dohody TRIPS.  Naopak obraz, který nám zde pravice představila ve smyslu, jak EU pomohla třetímu světu, je až nekriticky pochvalný. Kolegové, mrzí mě to, ale k hlasování bych mohla říct jen to, že kdo pro zprávu tohoto znění bude hlasovat, nemá jako poslanec žádnou důstojnost.

Signor Presidente, signor Commissario, onorevoli colleghi, la definizione di questa relazione è stata particolarmente travagliata vista la mole di emendamenti presentati, ma l'esito che domani voteremo è del tutto privo dei contributi critici di vari membri su numerosi e gravissimi errori compiuti nella gestione della pandemia. Dalla malagestione degli acquisti congiunti dei vaccini da parte della Presidente della Commissione, con opacità e compromissione dei bilanci UE e nazionali su cui è in corso un'indagine dell'EPPO, al fallimento dei certificati digitali COVID, che hanno favorito la diffusione del contagio instillando nei vaccinati la falsa sicurezza di essere protetti dall'infezione e non poter infettare gli altri; dalla discriminazione e violazione dei diritti umani fondamentali di chi non fosse munito dei certificati validi, benché immune per guarigione, alla negazione del dibattito scientifico aperto su temi chiave, ai danni economici imponenti dovuti a restrizioni inutili e sproporzionate. Di tutto questo non c'è traccia nella relazione. Il lavoro di un anno è stato sprecato e la credibilità del Parlamento ne uscirà ulteriormente indebolita. Non meravigliamoci poi se i movimenti euroscettici guadagnano consensi, siamo noi a regalare loro i voti.
