lpv:translated text	"Madam President, I would like to say a few brief words on Afghanistan. I have, of course, also read the report. Between 2002 and 2010 alone, the European Union invested more than EUR 2 billion in Afghanistan. In my view, this report comes to a very clear conclusion: there are a high number of cases of corruption and there is a lack of ability on the part of the administration, a high risk of waste and no independent audit authorities, there are projects that lack sustainability and effectiveness and there are unrealistic timeframes for the projects. In my opinion, as the budgetary control authority, we cannot provide a guarantee to European taxpayers that the funds are used in Afghanistan in an economically effective and sustainable way. In the medium term, we cannot guarantee that these problems will be resolved, either. For this reason, I reach a different conclusion to some of my other fellow Members and that is that we should end this armed development assistance in Afghanistan as quickly as possible."@en1
