lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, it would be easy for us to forget about Africa’s problem, given our own economic difficulties, but it would be a dreadful mistake. I think we need to put pressure on the African Union to realise its own responsibilities in the region. If the African Union is ever to assume the same kind of gravitas as the EU, it needs to put words into action – something it has conspicuously failed to do, for example, over Zimbabwe. We should also not hesitate to link our long-term trade and aid relationship with countries like the DRC to their respect for human rights, good governance and transparency. In this light, I hope the Commission will reiterate its support for the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative."@en1
