Gianni Pittella (S&D). – Signor Presidente, onorevoli colleghi, trenta secondi: vorrei chiedere a Lei e per suo tramite al Presidente Tajani di esprimere pubblicamente la vostra condanna personale e istituzionale nei confronti delle dichiarazioni fatte ieri dall'onorevole Korwin-Mikke.
Non possiamo permettere che certe dichiarazioni vergognose contro principi fondamentali come l'eguaglianza di genere su cui si fonda l'Unione europea vengano tollerate dalla Casa degli europei. Certe affermazioni non possono rimanere impunite e pertanto chiediamo al Presidente Tajani di adottare provvedimenti. A nome dei socialisti europei, vorrei esprimere la più ferma condanna e ribadire il nostro sostegno a favore dell'eguaglianza di uomini e donne e contro ogni discriminazione di genere. Da parte nostra, sia chiaro, non faremo mai un passo indietro nel solco della difesa dei diritti e dell'uguaglianza.
Πρόεδρος. – Κύριε Pittella, σας ευχαριστώ για όσα είπατε. Θα τα μεταφέρω, ως προεδρεύων, στον Πρόεδρο του Κοινοβουλίου, τον κύριο Tajani.
Τον λόγο έχει ο κύριος Korwin Mikke.
Janusz Korwin-Mikke (NI). – Mr President, I move to postpone the waiver of immunity of Ms Marine Le Pen until after the presidential elections. Unfortunately, if we vote for this she will get an additional 100 000 votes. She will post herself as persecuted by bureaucracy and she will win the election because of this. If she is in prison she will win the election for sure!
I move to postpone. We are interfering in the electoral process in France.
Πρόεδρος. – Κύριε Korwin Mikke, υπέθετα ότι θα είχατε κάτι να πείτε για όσα ανέφερε ο κύριος Pittella. Πρωτοτυπήσατε. Θέλω να πω ότι σε ό,τι αφορά στο αίτημά σας, με βάση τον Κανονισμό, άρθρο 180 παράγραφος 1, οι αιτήσεις για την άρση της ασυλίας οποιουδήποτε ευρωβουλευτή γίνονται με ανάταση της χειρός - όχι με ονομαστική ψηφοφορία.
Steven Woolfe (NI). – Mr President, under Rule 181a and Rule 49 in relation to the Committee on Legal Affairs, I would like to raise the very urgent case of Alexander Adamescu, a German citizen living in London, who is subject to a political European arrest warrant issued by the Romanian Government and the Romanian police. Mr Adamescu’s father had already been arrested on the same charge and he died in prison. His wife has had an attempt to remove her illegally from the United Kingdom by gangsters, and what we have to face is the European arrest warrant being used here by a country as a member of the European Union, for political purposes. I urge you to raise this at the highest level with the President and the committee under these rules.
Πρόεδρος. – Σας ευχαριστώ, κύριε Woolfe. Πριν περάσουμε στις ψηφοφορίες, με χαρά απευθύνω χαιρετισμό στον κύριο Habib El Malki, Πρόεδρο της Βουλής των Αντιπροσώπων του Βασιλείου του Μαρόκου και στην αντιπροσωπεία του που τον συνοδεύει, οι οποίοι βρίσκονται στο θεωρείο των επισήμων. Ο κύριος Habib El Malki και η αντιπροσωπεία του πραγματοποιούν επίσκεψη εργασίας στο Ευρωπαϊκό Κοινοβούλιο και μας τιμούν με την παρουσία τους στη σημερινή ψηφοφορία. Τους καλωσορίζω θερμά.
