New circular economy action plan: see of the minutes (A9-0008/2021 - Jan Huitema) 09-02-2021

Today I also supported the implementation of comprehensive policy recommendations to achieve an economy that is carbon neutral, environmentally sustainable, non-toxic and fully circular by 2050 at the latest. Achieving the goals of the Green Deal will only be possible if the EU moves to a circular economy model, which will also lead to the creation of new jobs and open up significant opportunities for businesses.
Product-specific standards should be set so that products on the EU market are functional, durable, reusable, easily repairable, non-toxic, upgradable and recyclable , contain recycled content and be resource and energy efficient.

General budget of the European Union for the financial year 2021 - all sections (A9-0206/2020 - Pierre Larrouturou, Olivier Chastel) 12-11-2020

I voted in favor of next year's European Union budget - the first of the period of the new Multiannual Financial Framework 2021-2027. I also expressed my support for the resolution accompanying and reflecting the vote on the financial resources drawn up by the main rapporteur for the budget of European Commission Pierre Laroutroux (S&D, France) and the rapporteur for the administrative budget of the other institutions, Olivier Chastel (RENEW, Belgium).
The main thrust of the budget is to "promote fair, inclusive and sustainable growth, creation of high-quality jobs with a long-term plan for socio-economic cohesion". The 2021 budget should focus on mitigating the effects of the pandemic and supporting the recovery, building on the Green Deal and digital transformation.
Other important additions to next year's budget were voted on in areas such as climate change, energy, the digital and transport nexus, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), tourism, security, migration, fundamental rights and foreign policy activities.

Establishment of an EU mechanism on democracy, the rule of law and fundamental rights (A9-0170/2020 - Michal Šimečka) 07-10-2020

I voted in favor of the report because it proposes the establishment of a permanent mechanism - an annual monitoring cycle in all Member States - to replace and complement several existing instruments that have proved insufficiently effective to protect the EU's fundamental values, while violation.
I express the position that it is extremely necessary for the European institutions, as the guardians of the Treaties of the Union, to provide a coordinated and efficient foundation for the defense  of  democracy, the rule of law and the fundamental _cc781905 -5cde-3194-bb3b-136bad5cf58d_rights that serve citizens as a guarantee for  their  freedom, security and justice.

European Climate Legislation (A9-0162/2020 - Jytte Guteland) 07-10-2020

I voted in favor of the European Climate Act because I support the ambitious European policy of all EU member states becoming carbon neutral by 2050.
The new legislation aims to make the political promise of a climate-neutral EU by 2050 a binding obligation. It will also provide European citizens and businesses with the legal certainty and predictability they need to make the transition.
I support targets for every single Member State to become climate neutral by 2050, making the EU 'emission negative'.
