The principal achievement of Europe is peace, which we often forget about as it has become so taken for granted by Europeans.

China protects the Chinese, America protects the Americans, I don't see why Europe should not protect the Europeans.

Between an uncontrolled escalation and passivity, there is a demanding road of responsibility that we must follow.

It is not through any combinations of politicians that the outcome of an electoral campaign is decided.

In a multipolar world, there must be more powers capable of taking responsibility, the US and Europe must be able to unite to achieve peace in the Middle East.

Nobody can deny there is a rise of Islamic fundamentalism.

In the last few days, I have been the victim of a campaign of slander and shameful lies, a campaign which has deeply shocked and hurt me. Enough is enough.
