"Mr President, the question which arises is: what is preventing the developed countries from helping the poor countries more effectively? The percentage of the GDP dedicated by the wealthy States to the development of poor countries is increasingly small. We know that, in many cases, these same wealthy countries flood the poor countries with toxic waste or allow shady businesses to operate in tourism as well. Our Group has put forward a proposal for the reinsertion of students from those countries who have studied in European universities and wish to start work in their country of origin. This would prevent that brain drain which is currently holding back development to such a degree. It might cost little to treat a sick person and even less to prevent the illness, but AIDS is continuing to spread because of a lack of political will and economic commitment. Globalisation is proving to be a tragedy for all those who are poor and is certainly not increasing the prosperity of the wealthy."@en1
