". The Rome Summit has once again revealed the divide between the northern and southern hemispheres. One of the most serious problems continues to be the lack of water for both drinking and other purposes. This problem could be solved if the Member States were to set up an fund for the direct financing of the planning, purchase, construction and management of wells and water systems. Combating hunger in the world is not just a competition to see who can show the most solidarity, it is a fight against the desperation which is driving millions of people to pursue their dream of a better life elsewhere. Sadly, in many cases, this dream is never realised, shattered by our inability to act as quickly as progress demands. We are sure that greater focus on the primary needs of the economies of the poorest countries and searching for on-the-spot solutions will bring effective solidarity. The proposals of the FAO Summit in Rome appear to follow this line and all the participating countries are committed to them. Our task is to ensure that the good intentions are translated into practical measures and immediate, focused solutions. In the hope that this will happen, we voted for the motion."@en1
