Miroslav Radačovský, an MEP from the Slovak Patriot party, made a short speech in what he said was his 'last intervention' in parliament. He wished Europe and the world peace, before releasing the bird from a bag around his waist. 'Let's let this dove unite all of us. Let this dove, a symbol of peace … let us realise that what we need most is really peace,' he said.
A French Green MEP said the gesture was a violation of parliamentary rules. 'What are you going to do now to get this animal back?' asked Caroline Roose. 'Where is animal welfare in this speaker's gesture? I find this absolutely unacceptable.'

#Europe #Politics #Dove #MEP
Probably sounded better in his head
exactly what I was thinking
It sounded better in reality you are just far in propganda despotism nepotism
You can actually feel the moment where he realizes it’s not going the way he thought it would. He doubles down, trying to force it, but to no avail.
You release peace doves out doors for a reson!
Karen of course striked at the end
His gesture of peace immediately triggered conflict 😂
thats really important to notice .... everyone turns hostile at the mention of peace
Really makes one think what kind of minds sit in those parlaments

No, he exactly said that she will fly home, you can hear it in video if you listen carefully. The reality is that this is exactly what trained pigeons do, they are released on whatever place and they are capable to return home, to training station.

Хорошо, что голубь вообще был жив. В половине случаев такие птицы умирают еще до выпуска. В остальных их невозможно поймать. Они умирают вне своего голубятника. Вполне понятно, почему этот жест спровоцировал такую сильную негативную реакцию
The switcher operator and camera man NAILED IT with the shot of the dove. Man. Probably the most excitement in this job in years.
I like how the bird took his seat in the parliament without hesitation. He's taking his job as a politician very serious.
😂😂😂
That dove probably hates Greta Thunberg
better than most politicians. Well, first of all it can't speak so it doesn't lie
Let's let this dove fly above Europe... or over to its new seat in parliament. Its home is in the latter
Peace is full time job you know
This feels like something out of a comedy series.
I'm glad that nobody understands what Slovak politicians say at home. Bizarre is on our daily menu 😑

She mentions the animals welfare while she is completely denying the doves new position as a cabinet member. Equal dove rights.🤣
Well, a dove as a EU represent for Slovakia wasn’t a big change as both has bird brains! 😂

He can make his point without (potentially) harming an animal.
You can make statements without harming others, I know it’s a crazy concept, but you should give it a try sometime 😁
No animals were harmed in this stunt, but the sensibilities of warmongers were.

I think the question is important. That man must had the bird in his sack for long time. Also there will be useless stress for animal when it will be caught. Useless injury for animals should be avoided.

People getting intimidated by a dove, a sign of peace. Lol the video has every aspect of humanity’s chaotic nature.
The symbolism though... A naive gesture, virtue signaling gesture. The dove flies a few metres, parks on the leadership desk, flies around, while the EP tries to catch and contain it.
Having said all that, peace is the most sacred thing to strive for. Never give up on peace.
Peace?
If you want symbolism? The dove landed at the leadership of the EU.
Don't pull a Neville Chamberlain and naively proclaim "Peace for our time"

She's such a karen, always ruining fun for everyone
Tbf that evil teacher was most probably the most reasonable there, and just called out bs that kids like that dude do
Yeah for real, people are dying, and the only thing she cares about is a little dove flying in her building.
this is something Michael Scott from the office would do thinking he saved the world, the guy should have said something like "with this generous offering I grant You everlasting peace, You are welcome"
0:38 It sounds like the pigeon said: Peace all Europe need Peace! 😂 Thank you Pigeon!
We should listen to that dove
IKR. It looks like the dove flew to a seat, got a close up and finished his speech. How did ge get the dove to do that?
Is the bird now a member of EU parliament?
And the pigeon proceeds to flies away as he completes his short peace speech
Haha it even moves its head in time with the emphasis, what a great little orator 🕊
Bold statement from the dove.
Slovak: "We need peace!"

@@willroman3595I think so 😂

@@tayzondayMusic guy replied 😂
Your time stamp is way off
Dove has a right to defend itself
multiple elements make this unique: His tone of voice, his gestures, the way he pulls a bag out of nowhere and pulls the dove from inside, the dove flying for 5 seconds then landing on the desk while the woman distances herself in disgust, the parliament with mostly empty seats
We're living in a sandbox simulation and whoever's playing it is having fun
I love how they all panic over a dove.
This needs the Arrested Development music and narration.

No worries the dove will be fine leave it alone and keep all windows open before leaving
That's how you get more pigeons.
that’s a Wedding Dove, not a pigeon dove so they’re pretty easy to catch. Leave some water out for it, it’s eats millet & cheese crumbles & they like little snips of broccoli top
The pigeon is probably the most intelligent thing that has flown around there so far
bro wanted visual effects irl 💀
I'd rather have the dove ruling the EU than the current politicians.
MEP: Let's let this dove fly above all of Europe
Dove: I will just stand on a desk first
It's waiting for its turn to speak.
"Let this be a symbol of peace"
"I find this breach of the rules and my personal ethics unacceptable"
🤦🏻♂️
I like how even the dove looks confused
Must've thought it was a sacrifice to a ritual😅
Almost all chairs empty.
Nobody at work.
hybrid work bro 😅
you know, it would not even be very practical to have every deputy be present in every single debate… You cannot have expertise in every field, and besides sitting in parliament and raising their hand in favor or against a certain matter, they have other tasks to do, e.g. preparing speeches or forming their opinion on complex legal proposals.
@@Zekromus surely
It's ok, they get paid anyway.
@@ZekromusThat's why they have counsellor teams and speech writers. The major fractions have devoted think tanks, the independents have to pay for their own advisors, but they all get a stipend for paying their staff, regardless of what they spend it on or how their staff is partying.
It's similar in domestic politics. There are committees, expert groups, and scientific advisory councils, informing the whips who decide how the members of parliament should vote. (Unlike in community politics, where the representatives discuss political matters among themselves while the mayor decides in the most personally lucrative way.)
The president of the European commission pays millions to an American consulting firm for typing things into Google. There is no limit to the number of consultants a politician can have, and those are paid positions, which makes it a great way to direct some public money to your mates, although the big money is in military contracts.
THIS IS THE WAY
_Grogu eats the dove in the background_
it is not. the party he's in is very pro russian, in their time as the main coalition member, they took people's retirements, are aiming take over private television, and changing the law to have lesser punishments for corruption, the party is notorious for corruption
Daffy Ducks cousin Dippy Dove is on his way to stardom !!!!
i see it as both ridiculous and sensible at the same time. only proved a point that the people in that room are not peaceful by how they react
And how they should react when wild animal sent out by mp(';
I don't think that pacifists and warlike people react to that differently.
Haha I think it's clearly a testament to how bad the state of Europe is, people are dying due to lawlessness, and that lady only cares about a little bird flying in her building.
@@Ostvalthow about not being a Karen about it? He clearly had positive intentions, that lady is pure evil intention.
@@misteryolo7248 Bro the guy is openly Putinist as is his party in Slovak. There are no positive intensions there.

“You take that back right now”

Well, they'd obviously be checking for weapons, not animals😅
I feel bad for the speaker. I can sense his genuine intention, too bad that people focus more on the symbolism instead of the real meaning or message behind it.
The symbolism is the real meaning
Seeing it as just a bird flying around isn’t symbolism, it’s reality or surface or appearance. Instead, symbolism, real meaning, and message are all describing the same thing - the idea that a dove is a symbol of peace.
Yeah I'm not sure you understand what symbolism means
You could've done that without realising a bird inside a building, just make a peace sign, it represents the same thing
How much more symbolistic can you get with a white dove?
Thank you to the french lady ! The only one who cared for the animal.
I don't know what's more surreal, that he released a dove in parliament or the french lady immediately going off on a tangent on animal welfare.
thats what i said too!!! its like theyre trying to one up each other with absurdity. absolutely incredible 😂😂😂😂
It's... relevant? There is an animal and its welfare situation is dubious
@@alexc8461 Oh no, a bird is inside a building. Such horror, imagine the danger to the animal.
Open a window, it'll leave. Doves are intelligent animals.

Also, there's war, but who cares, that dove must not be allowed to make a point!
WITH THIS DOVE I SUMMON

And thus all wars ceased
Let's mark this historic day down in our calendars.
War is over if you want it. All we are saying is give peace a chance.
"Unacceptable."
So, nobody cared about the fact he want to have peace for everyone, they only cared about a pigeon 🤦♂️
I bet the security guys there were mega confused when they were ordered to get some bird seed, in order to catch it again
Peace is confused with silence. Silence has nothing to do with peace. That's why the saying is peace and quiet. Two different definitions. of course it didn't work but at least he tried.
The woman near the dove represents how europe disgusts peace.
The Middle East: whats peace?
You know, in WW1 that wouldve called in an artillery barrage
Look we all understand that he clearly had a lapse of judgment...
.... in that he only brought ONE *bird* for what is clearly, a multi-*bird* conflict.

The animals welfare, but she isn’t worried about the welfare of Europeans. What lunacy
love how vague his statement is, never mentioning HOW they will achieve the aforementioned "peace". even the pigeon's chirp at 0:18 has more value and meaning behind it
Vague what? You can start by not pumping warfare equipment into crisis areas like Ukraine and Israel for which I remember there is also an international law prohibiting that.
It's not that complicated, just stop the criminal in America and Europe and Their military industrial complex that literally benefits from war !!!
The answer he probably doesn't mean: expel Russian forces from Ukraine
No one ever releases a giraffe, yet they are peaceful.
