Written explanations of vote

I supported the European Parliament’s request for a more comprehensive strategy towards achieving the goals of the Green Deal. Our ambition to relocate and reshore industrial capacity in Europe will necessitate not only investments in clean technologies, but also in skills, so as to create the quality jobs that will allow Europeans to fully enjoy the benefits a more sustainable economy. The road to a green and digital future becomes realistic only when aligned with our ability to ensure the necessary capabilities, green and digital literacy, as well as technical skills. Increased industrial competitiveness should be founded upon increased investment in people, skills and education.

One year of Russia’s invasion and war of aggression against Ukraine (RC-B9-0123/2023, B9-0123/2023, B9-0126/2023, B9-0131/2023, B9-0132/2023, B9-0134/2023, B9-0139/2023)

Written explanations of vote

One year on since this war has started, I voted in favour of a resolution which condemns Russia’s aggression and calls for the EU’s continued support to Ukraine. Such support and the provision of humanitarian assistance to people living this tragedy, brought about by Russia’s illegal and unjustified actions is essential. This, however, should be done in a way which respects Member States’ constitutional orders, including Malta’s military neutrality, and which does not shut the door to peace processes.
In this spirit, whilst I voted in favour of the resolution, as a condemnation of the terrible ongoing war and all forms of aggression and breaches of international law by Russia, I still hold reservations on parts of the text. Indeed, I voted down the part of the text calling for further military escalation by the European Union and its Member States, including the deployment of missiles and fighter jets.
Whilst standing firm in supporting Ukraine and the vulnerable impacted, Europe should pursue alternative ways of bringing peace back to its continent.
