  • Lettera Sassoli Chiusura Parlamento IT.Pages
    8 marzo 2020 Caro Presidente Sassoli, Ti scriviamo per esprimere la nostra profonda preoccupazione per la diffusione della malattia infettiva causata dal coronavirus COVID-19 in Europa e per richiedere ulte- riori misure di sicurezza per salvaguardare i Membri del Parlamento europeo, il per- sonale e la popolazione locale. Come ben sai, il livello di emergenza legato alla diffusione di questo virus è note- volmente aumentato nel corso delle ultime ore: il numero di casi confermati si sta moltiplicando in molti Stati membri, compreso il Belgio, e sono state confermate nuove aree di contagio. Misure di sicurezza straordinarie sono state adottate dalle autorità pubbliche di tutta Europa e intere aree sono state messe in quarantena. Il numero di casi confermati è in costante aumento in Belgio e a Bruxelles e questa settimana abbiamo riscontrato i primi casi di nuovi coronavirus nelle istituzioni del- l'UE. Sebbene apprezziamo che siano già state adottate misure straordinarie per far fron- te a questa emergenza, riteniamo che la situazione in rapida evoluzione e i maggiori rischi per la salute richiedano ulteriori misure di sicurezza come l'immediata interru- zione di tutti i lavori parlamentari, compresa la prossima sessione plenaria, come misura precauzionale. Il Parlamento europeo, con oltre 5000 persone che vi lavorano e viaggiano regolar- mente tra la loro città natale e Bruxelles, ha il potenziale per diventare un focolaio di trasmissione del coronavirus. Con la presente ti chiediamo di sospendere tutte le attività parlamentari con effetto immediato, fino a quando i rischi per la salute legati alla diffusione del virus saranno sotto controllo.

  • Hon. Mr President of the European Parliament, Dear David Sassoli
    Hon. Mr President of the European Parliament, Dear David Sassoli, Since March, when the outbreak of COVID-19 intensified in Europe, the functioning of the European Parliament (EP) has changed dramatically, due to the sanitary measures applied. We understand the inevitability of the contingency plan, taking into account the need to prevent infection and the spread of the virus and to protect the health and lives of people. Six months later, the functioning of the EP is gradually returning to normal. However, there are services whose unavailability seriously impairs parliamentary work, namely the interpretation service. The European Union (EU) has 24 official languages and all deserve the same respect and treatment. We recognize that the number of languages available in committee meeting rooms has been increasing, but even so, more than half of the languages still have no interpretation. Multilingualism is a right enshrined in the Treaties that allows Members to express themselves in their own language. Now, that is not happening and we are concerned that the situation will continue, even taking into account the expected workflow in the commissions after these atypical six months. In this sense, we appeal, once again, to you, the President of the EP for the application of the letter and the spirit of the principle of multilingualism, finding solutions that respect this principle and that allow the use of any of the 24 official languages of the EU. The expression of each deputy in her/his own language is a priority so that there can be conditions to fully exercise the mandate for which she/he was elected and a condition of respect for the citizens who elected her/him.

  • Castaldo-Lupo (M5S): "Su Alitalia Commissione Ue Rischia Di Ledere Interessi Consumatori E Lavoratori"
    Politica - Castaldo-Lupo (M5S): "Su Alitalia Commissione Ue rischia di ledere interessi consumatori e lavoratori" Roma - 06 apr 2021 (Prima Pagina News) "Servono buon senso e imparzialità". "Sulla vicenda Alitalia la Commissione europea sta peccando di superficialità. Con la sua politica da due pesi e due misure rispetto ai diretti concorrenti della compagnia di bandiera italiana, rischia di ledere gli interessi dei consumatori italiani e di migliaia di lavoratori. Questo è inaccettabile, servono buon senso e imparzialità". Lo scrivono, in una nota, il Parlamentare europeo e Vicepresidente dell'Europarlamento Fabio Massimo Castaldo e la Senatrice Giulia Lupo, eletti in quota M5S. "Insieme agli europarlamentari Isabella Adinolfi, Mario Furore, Dino Giarrusso e Daniela Rondinelli depositiamo oggi due interrogazioni alla Commissione europea affinché chiarisca la natura delle sue decisioni", continuano. "Non è chiaro infatti quale normativa comunitaria sta utilizzando per giustificare la sua richiesta di discontinuità per Ita rispetto ad Alitalia e se questa discontinuità possa arrivare fino a definire elementi essenziali quali il perimetro aziendale e la grandezza della flotta. Inoltre - scrive ancora Castaldo - va chiarito come mai agli altri Paesi europei sia stato concesso di apportare un aumento di capitale da parte dell’investitore pubblico, mentre all’Italia si chiede di realizzare un’operazione alle normali condizioni di mercato. Questo comporta una discriminazione, tanto più che è di dubbia certezza giuridica la decisione di impedire all’Italia di mantenere gli slot su Linate che, nell’intenzione della Vicepresidente Vestager, andrebbero ceduti ad altri vettori".

    Ursula von der Leyen President of the European Commission B - 1049 Brussels Brussels, 16 May 2020 Dear President, We welcomed your proposals for the tourism compartment, presented on 13 May. The sector has been affected in severe ways by this unexpected crisis, and we need a strong support to help the workers and the families depending by one of the most important economic field in Europe. Nevertheless, we need an additional effort from the Commission in order to prevent any discrimination between Member States. In fact, the “Communication towards a phased and coordinated approach for restoring freedom of movement and lifting internal border controls” (C(2020)3250) states that “Measures to be taken at national level to gradually lift travel restrictions should take into consideration [...] the assessment of approximation of epidemiological situations in the Member States”. That could cause some discrimination, and could also give the possibility to create internal bilateral agreements penalizing some Member States. Of course, we need to keep the health security as priority, and to put in place every measure to control and prevent the spreading of the epidemic, but, at the same time, we need a strong coordination by European Commission to prevent any form of bilateral agreements against the principles of the internal market. Hence, we asks the Commission to block any form of “tourism corridors” between Member States that could affect a fair restoration of the market. Yours sincerely, Mario Furore, Member of European Parliament, Isabella Adinolfi, Member of European Parliament, Tiziana Beghin, Member of European Parliament, Fabio Massimo Castaldo, Member of European Parliament, Ignazio Corrao, Member of European Parliament, Chiara Gemma, Member of European Parliament, Laura Ferrara, Member of European Parliament, B-1047 Bruxelles - Tel +32 2 28 45782 F-67070 Strasburgo - Tel +33 3 88 1 75782 [email protected] - www.europarl.europa.eu .

  • Question for Written Answer
    Question for written answer E-001742/2021 to the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Rule 138 Brando Benifei (S&D), Patrizia Toia (S&D), Giuliano Pisapia (S&D), Bettina Vollath (S&D), Margarida Marques (S&D), Evelyn Regner (S&D), Andreas Schieder (S&D), Domènec Ruiz Devesa (S&D), Milan Brglez (S&D), Pierfrancesco Majorino (S&D), Petar Vitanov (S&D) Subject: The detention of Ahmed Samir Abdelhay Ali in Egypt Ahmed Samir Abdelhay Ali, a student at the Central European University in Austria, has been arbitrarily detained in Cairo, Egypt by the Egyptian Security Forces since 1 February 2021, after he returned to Egypt to spend the holidays with his family. Mr Samir, a researcher into the history of family planning in Egypt and an advocate of safe and legal access to healthcare and women’s reproductive rights, has been charged by the Supreme State Security Prosecution with joining and funding a terrorist organisation and deliberately spreading false news. Mr Samir is currently being held in solitary confinement and is being denied contact with his family and lawyers, access to warm clothing and acceptable living conditions. He has testified to being a victim of torture and inhuman and degrading treatment by national security forces. His case is reminiscent of those of Patrick George Zaki, Walid al-Shobaki and Giulio Regeni. 1. Is the Vice-President of the Commission / High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy aware of this latest worrying case? 2. Will he raise this issue with the Egyptian authorities as a matter of urgency and call for Mr Samir’s immediate release and for the withdrawal of all charges against him? PE691.730v01-00.

  • Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm
    Brussels, 14 April 2020 Dear Ms Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, Dear Members of the Polish Parliament, Dear Colleagues, As Members of the European Parliament, we are writing to express our deep concern regarding the Parliamentary Document no 39 on amending the act of June 6, 1997 - the Penal Code - known as the “Stop paedophilia” bill - and Parliamentary Document No 36 on the amendment to the Act of 7 January 1993 on family planning, protection of the human fetus and conditions for the termination of pregnancy -known as “Stop Abortion” bill - that will be debated in a first reading in the Sejm of the Republic of Poland in your sitting of the 15-16 April 2020. We are convinced that measures that roll back protections for women’s human rights and self- determination are of grave concern as they undermine a core European Union value, that of advancing gender equality. Under human rights law measures that undermine or restrict exist- ing rights are not permitted and these draft bills violate Poland’s obligation to ensure ever greater protection of human rights. We are deeply concerned that the “Stop Abortion” bill provide for the prohibition of termina- tion of pregnancy due to severe or fatal foetal anomalies, currently a legal ground for abortion in Poland. Poland’s Act of 1993 on Family Planning, Protection of Human Fetus and the Con- ditions of Legal Pregnancy Termination is one of the most restrictive laws on abortion in the European Union. The bill would in effect result in a near total denial of access to legal abortion in Poland as most legal abortions are performed under this ground.
