lpv:translated text	". Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to start by thanking the rapporteur most sincerely for her sacrificial and very often thankless work, which nevertheless has brought tangible results. The situation of recipients of EU funds at home and abroad is not always simple. I am convinced that the position we are adopting today will simplify the lives of these people to a certain degree. I would like briefly to mention five points from the area of foreign policy where the situation will improve. Firstly, we are also enabling flexible funds for the prevention of armed conflicts, in other words wars. Up to now, the EU has been able to release flexible funds as soon as a country has declared itself to be in a state of crisis. Declaring a country to be in a state of crisis does not usually make sense from a political point of view, because then the country really is already on its way down that road. For the purpose of prevention, it would be helpful to be able to do this one step earlier. That will now be possible – a real improvement in conflict prevention, which is, of course, usually significantly more favourable than what happens once it has already reached the stage of war. Secondly, with regard to development aid, the question of VAT will make life easier for a lot of people. Thirdly, I think it is important that we are calling for a separate budget line for all EU missions – this is something that we have been calling for for a long time, but it is nevertheless important. Fourthly, we also have greater transparency, not only in respect of the recipients, but also in respect of the actual aim of the project funded. That is particularly important in the area of foreign policy. Fifthly, in the area of foreign policy we give a great deal of money to international organisations. We are now demanding to know, at the end of the process, how much money has been given to each organisation. That will also increase transparency."@en1
