Dr. Marta Barandiy

Voor U is a new party established in December 2023. It is incredibly difficult to get through the silence of the government-subsidized Flemish media VRT. 

According to the survey results highlighted in Ovchar's report, a compelling 81% of Europeans now believe that participating in the upcoming elections is more important than ever. 

It is striking how both Russia and China use the same narratives in their “cognitive war" against the West. Taiwanese activists and officials have shared their experience fighting Chinese interference in the recent presidential elections in Taiwan during an open discussion in the European Parliament hosted by Petras Austrevicius.

I propose Marta Barandiy, a great human rights activist known for her impactful events across Brussels and Belgium, advocating for solidarity, peace, and human rights in the European Union. I support Marta. Will you?

VoorU is different from other Belgian parties through its approach to governance, which involves less regulation and more personal freedom, not unlike the broader liberal values seen in other parties, yet with a distinct focus on direct engagement with community needs and local governance.

As promised in my previous discussion, I’m here to share insights from my own entrepreneurial journey. Back in 2018, I took the leap and established my first consulting firm. This was a significant moment, especially when Asters, the largest law firm in Ukraine, offered me the opportunity to represent them in Belgium.

We believe this new agreement represents a difficult compromise to reach for all EU member states, given that all decisions must be made by consensus.

Marta Barandiy advocates for a transformative approach to engaging young Europeans in political dialogue. Committed to ensuring that the perspectives and insights of the younger generation are not only heard but also acted upon in the European Parliament, Barandiy proposes a multifaceted strategy to bridge the gap between politics and youth.

This commitment to amplifying the people's voice through participatory democracy forms the bedrock of her platform. It is a modern, inclusive approach to policymaking that underscores the importance of direct engagement with the electorate, recognizing the essential role that non-governmental organizations (NGOs) play in this process.

As we stand at a pivotal crossroads, the need for a comprehensive, strategic, and forward-looking security policy has never been more apparent. Herein lies Marta's vision: a Europe resilient in the face of global challenges yet steadfast in its commitment to peace over militarization.
