lpv:translated text	". I congratulate Mr Wijkman on his excellent report, both for his insightful reading of the key role played by energy in development policies and for the ways forward that he points out, which are always marked by a pivotal concern to improve living conditions for the poorest people. This concern and the adoption of practical, realistic and effective measures are a challenge for the creativity of the peoples in the European Union and an imperative for humanity. We have to break the energy-poverty nexus – the basis for the two Commission proposals – in that ‘where energy is lacking, poverty develops and a vicious circle comes into being.’ I share the rapporteur’s concerns about the lack of a clear financial commitment by the Commission to back up the diagnosis made. I believe, however, that we are moving in the right direction. Even from a merely economic viewpoint, all the support that can be realised in the field of energy is clearly an investment for the future. For everybody. It is one of the areas in which development policy can have a more lasting and visible effect."@en1
