".
Madam President, the problem of Somali pirates starts on land, not on the water. As long as this country continues to be the world’s most failed state, as the British Foreign Secretary recently called it, its young people will try to find ways and will find incentives to take to piracy.
However, our ships and their crews cannot be left to their fate until such time as the State of Somalia is restored. The reduced forces of EU NAVFOR are not up to the massive job delegated to them and the pirates arrested are not always brought before due judicial process.
Certain proposals have been tabled within the framework of the UN in terms of prosecuting pirates and are supported by the IMO. However, the lack of progress is prolonging the state of terrible insecurity of crews and shipping, while international trade and consumers are still shouldering most of the overall annual cost of piracy which, according to a recent study, is estimated to be close to USD 7 billion."@en1
