lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the research programme on HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis is necessary because there is relatively little medical research into poverty-related diseases. The programme is also useful, for example, on account of the close correlation between the scourge of AIDS and the hunger problem. AIDS weakens the young adults, a group which traditionally determines the degree to which a people is able to withstand famine. In addition, existing efforts must not be replaced, but rather stepped up. I should like to ask that the Council and the Commission take pains to ensure that this programme provides a stimulus for Member States and research institutes. By way of conclusion, there are two aspects that are often neglected with regard to the combating of AIDS. In a proactive approach, marital fidelity and celibacy are essential elements to be stressed when giving information. Encouraging results can be seen in this regard in a number of African countries. I would therefore urge Commissioner Busquin to bring this to the notice of his colleague Mr Nielson once more. The Creator who gives us the means to help others considerably also gives us commandments with a beneficial effect."@en1
