"Mr President, the EU committed itself to help developing countries reach the Millennium Goals, achieving 0.7% official development aid by 2015, and committed itself on aid effectiveness, debt, climate, finance, etc. The EU has not reached the 0.7% target and, with the crisis, is unlikely to do so in the near future.
The Greens believe in a change of policy, addressing tax havens and tax evasion, with binding measures, implementing Article 208 of the Lisbon Treaty on policy coherence, by matching words with actions, with coherent policies between trade, agriculture and fishing, addressing farmland acquisition by foreign investors with the risk of undermining food security, such as in Africa, and putting in place fair trade rules to break the vicious circle whereby developing countries are locked into dire poverty despite agricultural and mineral resources. The trade pattern where developing countries export raw materials and buy manufactured products from industrialised countries has to change. The next report on the EU’s accountability should include the abovementioned policy changes as well as its financial commitments."@en1
