lpv:translated text	". Madam President, Commissioner, fellow Members, support for Iraq? 160 million, 200, even 500 million are being mentioned as if they were nothing. Whatever it ends up being, I want to make it very clear here that the funds for development aid must not be drawn on for this! Combating poverty is the main aim of European development cooperation, this is what the money must be used for. In my opinion the reserve and the flexibility instrument are the proper sources for the European contribution to Iraq. As rapporteur I have made out the case for the modification of the nomenclature of the budget lines for development cooperation with Asia and Latin America. The majority of the people living below the poverty line of 1 dollar still live in these two regions. These budget lines must come under development cooperation and not under external relations. It is a matter of activity-based budgeting here and not of the internal structure of the Commission as a basis for the breakdown of the budget. Another point is the know-how in the EU delegations. If the level can be boosted here through training and extra investments, not only will we achieve the target figure of 35% for the social infrastructure in developing countries, but we can also ensure that at least 20% of this can be spent on primary education and health care."@en1
