"Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, first of all, I should like to congratulate Mrs Joly on her report.
Today, we inhabit a world where human history seems to be travelling along separate tracks. In some continents, the days are spent basking in the light of innovation, technology and objective wellbeing while, in others, people spend their hours, from dawn to dusk, in a desperate search for the minimal means of survival.
In 2009, the Joint Parliamentary Assembly strove actively to ensure that its numerous proposals could be translated into substantial commitments and goals to be achieved. The European Union proved itself resolved to undertake timely, targeted and coordinated action to support the hardest hit countries, particularly the poorest and most vulnerable.
On 1 December, the twentieth ACP-EU plenary session will be held in Kinshasa. During this, an important report on the Millennium Development Goals will be discussed. As rapporteur and also deputy chair of the assembly, I will be fully committed to ensuring that the measures adopted are not empty words but become a solid commitment to continuing along the path towards a fairer world and, above all, a world without poverty."@en1
