Aspetos jurídicos e de direitos humanos da agressão da Federação Russa à Ucrânia (Doc. 16000) /O papel

das sanções no combate à guerra de agressão da Federação Russa à Ucrânia/ Contra o apagamento da

identidade cultural na guerra e na paz (Doc. 16003), a 26 de junho

O Deputado Paulo Moniz (PSD) participou no debate conjunto com a seguinte intervenção:

Thank you, Chair.

Dear colleagues,

My first words are for the three rapporteurs, and

to congratulate them.

Since the aggression and invasion of Ukraine

that began in 2014 and culminated in the full-scale

invasion and war in February 2022, the forced

Russification of the Ukrainian people has been

severely imposed.

The attack on the cultural identity, historical

heritage, and values and traditions, thoughts and

genuine expressions of the Ukrainian people have

suffered deliberate actions of erasure and

adulteration.

This intangible offensive, which also strongly affects the entire digital, historical and online environment and

media, leaves much deeper and more lasting marks than other scars.

We must condemn this barbarity and attack on the soul and essence of the Ukrainian people while demanding

its reparation, with all the costs involved and with international observation and monitoring mechanisms, and it

must continue for as long as necessary for complete reparation of the cultural and identity values attacked and

destroyed by Putin's regime.

The evil must not prevail. All together, we must ensure that.

Thank you.

Debate de urgência

Os desafios à democracia na Geórgia (Doc. 16018), a 27 de junho.

A Deputada Edite Estrela (PS),correlatora do relatório, iniciou o debate com a seguinte intervenção:

Thank you, Mr Chairman.

Good morning to you all.

Dear colleagues,

The Law on transparency of foreign influence,

also known as the Foreign Agent Law, is

incompatible with European standards of

democracy and human rights.

According to the opinion of the Venice

Commission, whose conclusions we fully

support, the law is fundamentally flawed. It

undermines freedom of expression and

association. It undermines political pluralism and democracy, and should therefore be repealed in its current form.

The manner in which the law was adopted, creating deep divisions within Georgian society and against the

recommendations and warnings of the international community, raises questions about the country's commitment
