lpv:spoken text	"Madam President, in the next few days my colleague, the Chair of the Committee on Development, and I will go with the international rescue committees to some of the most acute areas where people have been suffering from hypothermia – children, elderly people – and, for those colleagues who are saying that there is no suffering, the data from the NGOs that Mrs Wikström and others have mentioned is very clear. The suffering is very acute and is built on pre-existing problems. This is not a zero—sum game. There is suffering all over Europe – we know this – but there is a particular problem. For those of us who visited Lebanon and Jordan, we know that there is a refugee problem all over the world, but we cannot see in 2017 a situation where the cold weather will potentially kill refugees in Europe. This is not a situation any of us want to see. In the short time that I have, I just want to say that in the Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs, we met Martin Verwey, the coordinator. We understand the relocation problems and we know the context. But I would just simply put this question to the Commissioner, who I know is working hard on this. Commissioner, I know you are working hard on this and no one doubts your motives. The question I specifically put to you is to ask, in this emergency situation what more can be done? What we heard from Martin Verwey in our Civil Liberties Committee last week made us feel that this is not a sustainable situation for the coming weeks and we can do more. Please give us some analysis of what that can be."@en1
