lpv:spoken text	"Desertification is a serious problem affecting many parts of the world and it is important that the problem is addressed globally. Failure to act will cause serious problems for many people, particularly in the developing world, which is why it is right that the United Nations, with our support, should act now. I shall be voting in favour of the joint resolution but I hope that this is the start of a process to address this problem, and that in years to come we are not regretting our lack of action when the opportunity to act was given to us. Desertification is a disaster that we must avoid; this resolution is a first step. We, as the European Union, must take the lead in reversing this trend."@en1
