"In reply to Mr Burke and Mrs Harkin, I believe we have every reason to be proud of that mission. Let me remind you that it is the largest-scale mission ever deployed.
In reply to Mrs Harkin, we are urging the need for a speedy transition to the United Nations to ensure that eventually MINURCAT can take over from the EUFOR mission. The EU special representative on the ground, Ambassador Torben Brylle, is in contact with the rebel groups. It would be a lie to say that all is well.
I believe that this mission is absolutely essential, that it really does all it can for displaced people, for people who are suffering. We are faced with a real humanitarian tragedy, but it is also true that the mission still lacks resources – as we keep pointing out and lamenting – and that the Council is very keen to strengthen those resources before the United Nations takes over. In any case it will be a long-term enterprise. In reply to Mrs Harkin, let me say that we would therefore prefer a transition to an extension."@en1
