"I voted in favour of the report. However, we need to remember that a successful policy is not judged merely on targets, even if they are clearly quantified; it is also judged on the means applied to achieve them. By default, development aid cannot be provided without due regard for the specific economic, social and political characteristics of the country for which it is intended. It does not make sense to provide aid where it often replaces a country’s domestic production, thereby basically eliminating any prospect of growth in local production, and where screening is often exceptionally poor and, as a result, aid is lost between corrupt governments and organised crime. The danger obviously lies in dispensing aid willy-nilly, purely and simply to salve the conscience of the developed world, not in supporting our fellow men in need, based on a proper, strategic plan, so that they can stand on their own feet and make progress in today’s globalised environment."@en1
