lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this report because, in this day and age, the number of people suffering from hunger is unacceptable. Despite the significant combined efforts that have been made internationally, the Millennium Development Goals have yet to be achieved, and therefore the European Parliament calls for urgent steps to be taken to fulfil internationally binding commitments and make the right to adequate and nutritious food a reality. Parliament welcomes the European Commission communication on a European Union policy framework to assist developing countries in addressing food security challenges. However, it considers that the world food crisis represents not simply a humanitarian disaster on an unprecedented scale, but a major threat to peace and security worldwide. Although credit should be given to the Commission’s commitment to seeking out solutions that could lift a billion people out of extreme poverty, the European Union and the Member States must, as a matter of urgency, make new investments in agriculture and rural development, above all, in view of the new common agricultural policy, introducing dedicated mechanisms for stockpiling sufficiently large quantities of basic foodstuffs, removing their own barriers to trade, and reducing the debt of the countries most affected."@en1
