lpv:spoken text	". I will be in a better position to answer that question after the meetings to be held in April as part of the ASEM process. In April, following the informal Foreign Ministers' meeting at Tullamore in Ireland, we have meetings with our Asian partners in ASEM. We also have meetings with the Indonesians and other partner countries. I hope they will underline the importance of our partnership. Europe is the biggest provider of development assistance and the biggest trading partner in many Asian countries, and it is certainly the biggest provider of external financial investment in most Asian countries. I am not convinced that our political impact in those countries is as great as our economic impact and I hope we can change that. We have done a great deal to enhance our relationship with China. I am keen that we should do the same with India, and I hope that later this year we will be able to produce a strategy document on our relationship with that country. We have already produced a strategy document on our relationship with south-east Asia. We are starting to move things forward and we have been helped in that by the Parliament, which has supported our opening of five new Commission delegations around Asian countries."@en1
