"Mr President, there is little to add at this point in the debate, especially after the excellent report by Mr Marset, which I agree with completely. However, I would like to stress certain things that he has said. It is very important to speak of behaving cooperatively – we have spoken about behaving sensibly – by focussing especially on education and health programmes, as the report itself says, and he has also spoken about coordination and the need for staff. For those of us who were in Kosovo just a few days ago, we must specifically highlight something which has been said by many of the visitors in the delegation. That is, that, unlike other interventions, the main feature of the one carried out in Kosovo is that it was directed in an integrated and perfectly coordinated fashion, which increases the efficiency of our action. On the other hand, as Mr Salafranca has pointed out very clearly, I also absolutely share his disagreement not only with the budgetary restrictions, but also with the difficult fact that obstacles are placed in the way of countries such as those in Central America in whose agreements certain clauses have been included, while we do not act in this way in other regions. For those of us whose for political action is solidarity, we also require efficiency, the sustainability of programmes and the creation of policies in the places where we take action, which will help these treasured societies of Latin America to reach higher levels of development and social justice. I will end, Mr President, with the following quote: “We must be rebels, but we must also be competent”. To interpret this in another context: let us show solidarity, but, in doing so, be efficient."@en1
