"The Horn of Africa is currently suffering from cumulative scourges:
It must construct the ‘EU regional political partnership for peace, security and development in the Horn of Africa’ which the Committee on Development launched when it adopted its report in April 2007.
Let us not allow the Horn of Africa to become an area of lawlessness where no development takes place.
war, both civil and regional
the absence of democracy and freedom
famine and the food crisis.
The acts of piracy, reminiscent of another age, are only the latest product of this chaos.
Faced with these tragedies that are tearing apart the region and spreading bloodshed, we do not have to remain silent or claim impotence.
It is now, more than ever, when the international community is showing signs of being fatigued by a seemingly never-ending crisis, that the EU must take a leading role.
By launching Operation ‘Atalante’ to protect vulnerable ships and the delivery of food aid to Somali refugees, the Union has demonstrated that it can find real and effective solutions when confronted with an emergency.
