听听President. 鈥� We now come to the order of business. The final draft agenda, as adopted by the Conference of Presidents on 6听March听2025 pursuant to Rule 163, has been distributed.

In accordance with Rule 9(9), the following report is added to the final draft agenda for a vote on Tuesday: report by Dainius 沤alimas听on the request for waiver of the immunity of Adam Bielan.

With the agreement of the political groups, I also wish to put to the House the following proposal for changes to the final draft agenda for Tuesday. The order of debates in the afternoon will change as follows.

The debate on the presentation of the proposal for a Critical Medicines Act will be taken as the second point, and the debate on the presentation of the proposal on a new common approach on returns will be taken as the third point.

If there are no objections to this, then the change will be approved.

We now move to changes requested by the political groups, starting with Wednesday.

The ECR Group has requested that Council and Commission statements on 'Recent events in Romania: the ongoing investigation into the presidential candidate' be added as the fifth point in the afternoon, before the debate on frozen Russian assets. As a consequence, the sitting would be extended to 11听p.m.

I give the floor to Gheorghe Piperea to move the request on behalf of the ECR.

听听Gheorghe Piperea, 卯n numele grupului ECR. 鈥� Doamn膬 pre葯edint膬, 卯n decurs de trei luni, Rom芒nia a reu葯it recordul de a interzice doi candida葲i, de a anula o rund膬 de alegeri 葯i de a aresta un candidat, f膬r膬 probe. Sistemul judiciar este acum o arm膬 politic膬 utilizabil膬 卯mpotriva oricui.

Ambii competitori care au c芒葯tigat turul unu al alegerilor din 24 noiembrie 2024, ambii, inclusiv Lasconi, 葯i c膬rora li s-a refuzat turul doi, consider膬 c膬 anularea alegerilor 葯i interzicerea unor candida葲i sunt ilegitime.

Precedentul rom芒nesc s-ar putea extinde 卯n toat膬 Uniunea, fapt care ar determina destr膬marea 卯ncrederii poporului 卯n democra葲ie 葯i 卯n justi葲ie. Nu ne dorim asta, stima葲i colegi.

Fundamentul democratic al Uniunii Europene este reprezentat de pluralism politic 葯i alegeri libere. Dar sistemul birocratic european nu are 卯ncredere 卯n op葲iunile omului de r芒nd, pe care 卯l vede inapt de decizii de vot responsabile.

Pentru binele mai mare, Uniunea European膬 a instituit scutul democratic european ca un fel de vaccin anti disiden葲i. Dar cu ce ne face asta diferi葲i de Uniunea Sovietic膬?

听听President. 鈥� Do any colleagues want to speak against?

Mr听艦tef膬nu葲膬, go ahead.

听听Nicolae 艦tef膬nu葲膬 (Verts/ALE). 鈥� Madam President, based on the rule of law and based on democracy, having such a debate would undermine the very principle of legality in the middle of an ongoing election. Let me tell you something: the proponent that came with this proposal tonight, his party leader听yesterday incited 'skinning alive' those who he considers responsible for this 鈥� and this in the middle of riots that were violent.

Enough with the violence. He said it was a metaphor. Well, a metaphor is what Shakespeare said, that the world is a stage. A metaphor is not when you say 'skinning people alive', when you put women down, when you put minorities down, when you go against the constitutional base of the country, when you say that ethnicities are less than people.

So enough with the hate. Let's not export the hate. Romanians deserve a European, modern, democratic life.

听听President. 鈥� Thank you. We will put the request of the ECR Group to a vote by roll call.

(合法博彩网站 rejected the request)

So the agenda is unchanged.

We move now to a request by the ESN Group 鈥� for Wednesday as well 鈥� which has requested that a Commission statement on 'Presidential elections in Romania, particularly the Constitutional Court's ruling of 8听March' be added as the second point in the afternoon.

I give the floor to听Christine Anderson to move the request.

听听Christine Anderson, on behalf of the ESN Group. 鈥� Madam听President, Romania has now barred C膬lin Georgescu, as my colleague Mr听Piperea just pointed out.听This is unprecedented in the EU Member States.

Ladies and gentlemen, if democracy were to effect change, that is the sole reason for having a democracy. You can effect change. But what we are seeing now is actually that people can vote for whoever they want and if they don't like the candidate, they just bar him or put him in jail.

As democrats, we cannot stand for this. The European Commission states that in a healthy democracy, citizens can freely choose their leaders. If the Romanian people choose Georgescu, why do we interfere and why do we stop it?

This has nothing to do with democracy. We need to have a debate on this to get back to our senses. I urge you to vote for this proposal.

听听President. 鈥� Does any colleague want to speak against?

I see a hand up there. Go ahead, Mr听Panayiotou. Sorry, Mr听Sieper. I can't see that far.

听听Lukas Sieper (NI). 鈥� Madam President, dear colleagues, yes, the moustache is gone, if you do not recognise me.

I was just wondering about that colleague that said the people elected this candidate. They didn't elect this candidate in a fair election; it was an election that was scammed by Russian propaganda and Russian bots and Russian influence. I know that you are fond of stuff like this, because it tends to help you as well in our elections.

But democracy also includes the free will of the people without manipulation, without foreign interference. That is the problem here. It is not that a fair election was taken away; it is that a scammed election was taken away. If the institutions 鈥� the Constitutional Court, the board of elections 鈥� decide like this, you have to respect it. You cannot just cry aloud because the candidate that you wanted to run was taken away.

听听President. 鈥� Thank you very much. So let's put the group's request to a vote by roll call.

(合法博彩网站 rejected the request)

So the agenda remains unchanged.

The final request is from the Greens/EFA Group. For Wednesday, it has requested that a Commission statement on 'Secessionist threats in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the recent escalation' be added as the last point in the afternoon. As a consequence, the sitting would be extended to 11 p.m.

I give the floor to Ms听Strick to move this request on behalf of the Green Group.

听听Tineke Strik, on behalf of the Verts/ALE Group. 鈥� Madam President, colleagues, amidst all major recent geopolitical developments and our discussions about increasing European security, we must make sure to pay attention to the developments in Bosnia.

In recent weeks, the situation became extremely explosive after the President of Republika Srpska, Milorad Dodik, took further illegal steps towards judicial succession from the State of Bosnia and Herzegovina in response to his conviction by the Bosnian Constitutional Court for undermining the Dayton Peace Accords.听And as Putin's puppet in the Balkans, Dodik may do anything the Kremlin tells him, including waging war.

So this escalation requires a rapid and strong EU response, as we are not secure without a secure Bosnia.

So the Greens/EFA Group therefore proposes the debate with a title "Commission statement on secessionist threats in Bosnia and Herzegovina and the recent escalation, without resolution", and we would like to extend the meeting on Wednesday then, to 11pm.

听听President. 鈥� Thank you. I will now give the floor to any colleagues who want to speak against. Ms听Zovko?

听听沤eljana Zovko (PPE). 鈥� Madam听President, I strongly commend the intention to speak on Bosnia and Herzegovina and the situation of Bosnia-Herzegovina regarding the recent US approach towards Bosnia, towards multilateral organisation and towards the unresolved situation regarding electoral law reform in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

30 years after the Dayton Agreement, we still have a High Representative who is receiving EUR听26听000 a month to keep Bosnia and Herzegovina in what? In disarray? We have to address the real issue that is electoral law reform. We have to close our OHR office. We have to bring Bosnia and Herzegovina to the European Union because America is leaving.

The OHR office is staying only with Christian Schmidt and the Peace Implementation Council is highly influenced by Turkey and Russia. This is something that we cannot neglect in this debate. I will join the debate, I'm not speaking against the debate, but this debate and the title should be extended to: 'Urgent need to change electoral law reform in Bosnia and Herzegovina and end with international presence.'

听听President. 鈥� Thank you. There is an issue with the timing here because, with the deadlines we have, the title cannot be changed.

So we vote on the Greens' request by a show of hands.

(合法博彩网站 approved the request)

The agenda is now adopted and the order of business is thus established.

(The sitting was briefly suspended)
