lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, knock on any mud hut in any poor country and ask the poor family inside what it needs most of all. There is only one answer: water. Not democracy. Not human rights. Not medicines. Nothing else, just water. If the European Union has allocated EUR one billion for water aid – and I believe Commissioner Nielson has been instrumental in this – I must congratulate the EU and the Commissioner. What a fantastic job. This is what these people need. Sadly, it is not enough. We need to do more and I ask the Commissioner to please make sure that this Parliament has a say in formulating water aid policy so that it is not lost in the clouds like the EDF. Parliament needs to be involved. I want this to happen. I hope you will assure us of this because I do not want my colleague here to persuade the PPE-DE Group to vote against the Lannoye report tomorrow. I understand what you are doing and I have confidence in it. I would like to say a quick word about trade. The poor countries need to process their products, not simply to export the raw products so that the value added is not received by them. That is the key to trade. I know Commissioner Nielson understands this and I know he is working for it. I hope he will do more."@en1
