  • Brussels, 27 March 2017 Dear Mr. Dijsselbloem, Earlier This Week We
    Brussels, 27 March 2017 Dear Mr. Dijsselbloem, Earlier this week we have known the statements you have made to a communication media, which we consider unequivocally discriminatory and offensive against several EU countries as well as offensive and sexist towards women. Shortly after the publication of your statements, you had the opportunity to rectify at the European Parliament, but you avoided doing so. On the contrary, instead of apologizing, you have said that the problem is that we do not understand the direct style of speech known to Calvinist culture. In our opinion, Calvinist culture has nothing to do with disdain for other people. This is the reason why we are again asking you - as representatives of European citizens, who have chosen us directly - to reflect and to rectify. Your statements attack one of the most important values that underpin our European Union: equality. In the last six decades, we have all managed together, Mr Dijsselbloem, to materialize a dream that once seemed unthinkable: that Europeans should be equal in opportunities, rights and obligations. The EU is not just rules, meetings and political decisions. What supports all of this, what gives meaning to the EU, are our common values, and equality as the most important one. Therefore, respecting these values should be the first obligation for any European leader, Mr Dijsselbloem. This includes assuming that European citizens, like any human being, are all equally respectable, regardless of our gender and our country of origin or residence. Attacking a certain group of countries as you have done is attacking each one of the EU countries.

  • A Look at the New European Parliament Page 1 INTERNATIONAL TRADE COMMITTEE (INTA)
    THE NEW EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT KEY COMMITTEE COMPOSITION 31 JULY 2019 INTRODUCTION After several marathon sessions, the European Council agreed on the line-up for the EU “top jobs” on 2 July 2019. The deal, which notably saw German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen (CDU, EPP) surprisingly designated as the next European Commission (EC) President, meant that the European Parliament (EP) could proceed with the election of its own leadership on 3 July. The EPP and Renew Europe (formerly ALDE) groups, in line with the agreement, did not present candidates for the EP President. As such, the vote pitted the S&D’s David-Maria Sassoli (IT) against two former Spitzenkandidaten – Ska Keller (DE) of the Greens and Jan Zahradil (CZ) of the ACRE/ECR, alongside placeholder candidate Sira Rego (ES) of GUE. Sassoli was elected President for the first half of the 2019 – 2024 mandate, while the EPP (presumably EPP Spitzenkandidat Manfred Weber) would take the reins from January 2022. The vote was largely seen as a formality and a demonstration of the three largest Groups’ capacity to govern. However, Zahradil received almost 100 votes (more than the total votes of the ECR group), and Keller received almost twice as many votes as there are Greens/EFA MEPs. This forced a second round in which Sassoli was narrowly elected with just 11 more than the necessary simple majority. Close to 12% of MEPs did not cast a ballot. MEPs also elected 14 Vice-Presidents (VPs): Mairead McGuinness (EPP, IE), Pedro Silva Pereira (S&D, PT), Rainer Wieland (EPP, DE), Katarina Barley (S&D, DE), Othmar Karas (EPP, AT), Ewa Kopacz (EPP, PL), Klara Dobrev (S&D, HU), Dita Charanzová (RE, CZ), Nicola Beer (RE, DE), Lívia Járóka (EPP, HU) and Heidi Hautala (Greens/EFA, FI) were elected in the first ballot, while Marcel Kolaja (Greens/EFA, CZ), Dimitrios Papadimoulis (GUE/NGL, EL) and Fabio Massimo Castaldo (NI, IT) needed the second round.

    Dr Stella Kyriakides Commissioner for Health and Food Safety, European Commission And Dr Thierry Breton Commissioner for Internal Market, European Commission And: Dr Rafael Mariano Grossi IAEA Director Subject: Transport of Radiopharmaceuticals in the European Union Brussels, 22th April 2020 Dear Commissioners, Dear Director during this pandemic period, the outcome of which is unknown, we must continue to ensure that services in the hospitals are provided to patients who require radiopharmaceutical care. Radiopharmaceuticals are drugs that are used for imaging diagnosis and therapy. Radiopharmaceuticals are crucial to provide CT scans for COVID-19 patients (SPECT/CT and PET/CT imaging) as well as for fragile patient populations, such as cancer and cardiac patients. Due to the radioactive part the shelf life is extremely limited and measured in hours and days. Whereas most regular drugs have shelf lives of months or years and can be produced in mass quantities, radiopharmaceuticals are produced in much smaller quantities and have to be produced for delivery just in time. This is often the day after production, and they are given to a patient usually on that day. In case of a imaging procedure, the scan also takes place the same day. This means that in the EU countries in over 90% of cases the time between the patient dose being ordered, produced, shipped and the actual diagnostic or therapeutic test is 24 hours. Furthermore, these short timeframes are extremely important since a radiopharmaceutical that cannot be used on the day of delivery and preparation in the hospital must be discarded. These days, the number of controls at the borders have seriously increased (potentially causing delays) and the administrative demands are sometimes hard to follow and fulfil.

  • Full Letter Here
    Commissioner Margrethe Vestager Executive Vice-President Commissioner Valdis Dombrovskis Executive Vice-President Commissioner Thierry Breton Bruxelles 10th February 2021 Subject: Letter regarding implementation of communications technology in the EU We, the undersigned Members of the European Parliament from different political groups, share a common concern regarding the politicisation of the deployment of 5G technology across our Union. The European Commission, along with the Member States, has made clear that digitisation is one of the two key pillars on which the post-Covid recovery must be built. The "fifth generation" of telecommunication systems, or 5G, provides the capacities to meet Europe growing connectivity needs, which are the backbone of job creation, economic growth, public services fit for the digital age, and opportunities for all. Among other things, 5G will benefit healthcare by expanding telemedicine. Europe’s rural areas, in particular, are in need of better access to health – and here telemedicine is key. But telemedicine requires a network that can support real-time high-quality video, as it is the case with 5G. With 5G-enabled systems, patients can often get treated sooner, regardless of where they live. But healthcare is not the only sector that will benefit from 5G. Europe’s industry as a whole will benefit, too. Faster, more stable connections can connect teams in multiple locations at once, supporting remote work – which is essential in our fight against Covid-19. At the same time, the possibility to quickly access and share data will help businesses increase growth and savings, while improving customer experience. The Commission has even mentioned that the system will also increase a strong cooperation between member states and the European Union Institutions in matters of cyber security.

  • Question for Written Answer
    Question for written answer E-005687/2020 to the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Rule 138 Antonio Tajani (PPE), Antonio López-Istúriz White (PPE), Dolors Montserrat (PPE), Paulo Rangel (PPE), Leopoldo López Gil (PPE), Francisco José Millán Mon (PPE), Salvatore De Meo (PPE), Fulvio Martusciello (PPE), Giuseppe Milazzo (PPE), Aldo Patriciello (PPE), Massimiliano Salini (PPE) Subject: Further cases of human rights infringements in Venezuela Over the last week, two Venezuelan institutions at the service of Nicolas Maduro, the Servicio Bolivariano de Inteligencia and the Dirección General de Contrainteligencia Militar, have committed a number of serious human rights violations against members of the interim government of Venezuelan President Juan Guaidò, and those working with that government. These include searches in the residences of ambassadors in Bulgaria and the Bahamas, and searches at the homes of several executives of the National Council for Judicial Defence and of some of their parents. Since personal freedom and being safe in one’s own home are fundamental rights, can the Vice- President of the Commission/High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy answer the following questions: 1. Is he aware of these events? 2. What measures will he take to protect the rights of Venezuelan citizens working with Juan Guaidò, who has been recognised by the EU as Venezuela's legitimate interim President? 3. Will he condemn these human rights infringements and take action to promote the restoration of freedom in Venezuela, putting political pressure on the Maduro regime? PE659.936v01-00.

  • Antonio Tajani President, European Parliament Boyko Borisov President
    Stefano Maullu Deputato al Parlamento Europeo Antonio Tajani President, European Parliament Boyko Borisov President of the Council (January- June 2018) Frans Timmermans First Vice-President of the European Commission (Better Regulation, Interinstitutional Relations, the Rule of Law and the Charter of Fundamental Rights) Maroš Šefčovič Vice-President of the European Commission for Energy Union Miguel Arias Cañete European Commissioner for Climate Action and Energy Jerzy Buzek Chair of the ITRE Committee, European Parliament Brussels, 10 January 2018 Dear Presidents, Dear Vice Presidents, Dear Commissioner, Dear Chair, We would like to bring to your attention several critical issues related to the European Commission’s proposal for amendments to the Gas Directive 2009/73/EC.We are concerned about a deviation from established decision-making practice and the principles of better regulation, a key priority of President Juncker and First Vice-President Timmermans which we fully support. 1. The European Commission’s proposal envisages the expansion of the rules of the EU Gas Directive to all existing and future onshore and offshore external gas pipelines. The wording of the proposal seems to significantly change the scope of the existing legislation. It touches upon investment framework and multibillion infrastructure projects. We believe that it is important to make sure that these amendments are subject to ordinary legislative scrutiny by the Members of the Parliament. 2. However, as we understand, no in-depth evaluation of their impact was carried out, nor 12-week stakeholder consultations of such an impact assessment were held prior to the announcement of the proposed amendments. At the same time, the absence of relevant data and a tight timeline for the fast legislative procedure could undermine adequate scrutiny of the proposed legislation by the co-legislators.
