".
I would like to thank you for applauding my previous reply and my efforts to give a truly exhaustive answer to the question posed. As regards the additional question, it must be said that I am not in a position to give a perfectly clear answer at this point in time. Nevertheless, it should also be noted that all of the issues relating to social exclusion, as well as those concerning the fight against poverty in this time of crisis, are quite naturally on the agenda and are being discussed intensely in the Council’s working groups, including the directive that you mentioned. As for food aid, I may have misunderstood the aim of the question, but at the Council we have been discussing food aid primarily for developing countries, in other words the countries worst affected by the economic and financial crisis, as well as by the previous food crisis. As far as the situation in the European Union is concerned, no such topic is being discussed. Nevertheless, we are aware of the responsibility of the European Union regarding the least successful or those who need far more assistance in the current situation, and this subject will also figure on the agenda of a meeting of the ministers for development co-operation."@en1
