"I am happy to support this motion for resolution. The EU Trust Fund for Africa aims to address the root causes of destabilisation, forced displacement and irregular migration by promoting resilience, economic opportunities, equal opportunities, security and development. It is regrettable, however, that to date Member States’ contributions have remained too low, amounting only to a small fraction of the Union contribution and are thus far from reaching the official commitment. Member States should honour their pledges and to rapidly and effectively match the Union contribution in order to allow the trust fund to develop its full potential. I also believe that the EU must show greater coherence when acting in the field of international cooperation for development in the African region. These funds should reflect the principles of policy coherence for sustainable development and complementarity between all development stakeholders, and should avoid any contradiction between development aims and security, humanitarian and migration policies. The trust funds should contribute to achieving the long-term objectives of ensuring peace and strengthening governance in recipient countries."@en1
