lpv:translated text	"Before moving on to our agenda, I would like to make a few comments in relation to the fact that yesterday was United Nations Day, and the last winner of the Sakharov Prize – Kofi Annan – made a speech in which he stressed that we can and must do more to achieve the objectives of peace, human rights and development which were the basis for the creation of the United Nations 59 years ago. Since yesterday was the day on which we celebrated the birth of that institution, I believe it would be appropriate for Parliament, on coming together once again, to highlight the need for a United Nations that works and which leads the world in the direction it deserves. I would like to communicate this message to our institution because we all share the responsibility for promoting the multilateralism created at the end of the Second World War. As the European Parliament pointed out last January, the European Union and its Member States provide more than half of the contributions to the United Nations system and to peace-keeping missions. Our participation in terms of development aid exceeds 60%. We are, therefore, entitled to a significant role in the future of the United Nations, and in its work and its objectives. I would, therefore, like to take this opportunity today to call on the Member States to avoid public quarrels. The future of the Security Council is an extremely important issue in terms of us all coming together to improve the work of the United Nations. I therefore believe it appropriate, as I have said, to emphasise the significance of the date."@en1
