".
As is so often the case in this House, the resolution is highlighting situations that are unbearable for people. Yes the hunger in the world is an intolerable scandal. However, as usual, the report does not propose any real solution. Even worse, it is only acknowledging the tragedy in order to advocate greater market freedom. This means, under the current circumstances, that the economic and financial power of the capitalist companies of rich countries will continue to trample down these countries, to engulf their agriculture, to direct it towards the needs of the markets of rich countries and to control all the production and distribution channels, etc.
What the report calls fair international trade does not exist. It is a hollow term, which is seeking to make us believe that in that we can drastically reduce poverty. We obviously do not associate ourselves with such a verbal masquerade on such a dramatic subject."@en1
