lpv:translated text	"Madam President, water is a resource in short supply, even though it covers more than 70% of the Earth’s surface. It is vital for life, but can also cause major natural disasters, whether by drought or flooding. We encounter this paradox when we deal with the subject of dams. In many instances, dams are the only means of supplying energy to communities isolated due to mountainous or hilly relief. At the same time, these systems provide a clean source of electricity. However, if there are flaws in their construction, this causes an adverse ecological and social impact. I should emphasise that any new projects in this area must be based on extensive impact assessments, starting with the recommendations from the World Commission on Dams. Therefore, I call on the Commission to promote these issues in discussions with other countries."@en1
