"I voted for this report because I support the notion of a European fund for supporting the processes involved in establishing democracy in the vicinity of the European Union. However, in order to achieve its objectives, it must provide genuine added value by supplementing existing instruments consistently and effectively. With this in mind, it is appropriate to focus on strengthening the foundations of the society where democracy is in the process of being established. However, clear, transparent procedures are needed, including for the method of selecting beneficiaries. A simpler funding process and flexibility are also required, especially with regard to the opportunities for rapidly reprogramming funds. I should mention how important it is for the European Parliament to be sufficiently involved in the running of the European Endowment for Democracy (EED). I should point out that the results of the EED will need to be monitored and analysed closely to ensure that it provides maximum efficiency. I should mention that in implementing the EED, balanced support needs to be given to the processes for establishing democracy both in the Eastern Partnership and in the Southern Neighbourhood, in accordance with the ‘more for more’ principle."@en1
