I'm convinced that after years of studying the phenomenon, global warming is not the real issue of temperature. That is the issue of a new ideology or a new religion. A religion of climate change or a religion of global warming. This is a religion which tells us that the people are responsible for the current, very small increase in temperatures. And they should be punished.

"not a scientific body capable of accurately assessing the facts about global warming".

Common foreign policy is completely unnecessary. The various European countries have widely differing priorities, goals and prejudices. It would be wrong to force them all to follow the same course.

EU didn't advance our [Eastern Europe] democracy by a single millimeter.

Other top-level politicians do not express their global warming doubts because a whip of political correctness strangles their voice.

The message of [Fahernheit 9/11] is very weak and propagandistic ... We were used to such messages in the communist days. Everybody has open eyes and can understand that this is propaganda. It was a weak film that tells us nothing new.

I was paid to read Western economic texts. In a way, the regime paid for their own undermining.
