lpv:translated text	"The increased pressure on national budgets due to the financial and economic crisis should not be used either as an excuse or as a reason for reducing European humanitarian aid. Recent IMF forecasts of a 23 million increase in 2012 in the number of people living in poverty in the developing world, due to the crisis in the developed world, brings Europe face to face with its responsibilities. The EU is still the biggest donor in the world; however, there was a EUR 15 billion reduction in funds in the European budget in 2010. At the same time, its mission is not confined solely to financial aid. Problems such as the acquisition of farmland by government-backed foreign investors, particularly in Africa, are undermining local economies and weakening their productive fabric. Europe therefore needs to control, evaluate and intervene in cases that undermine real support and development in the countries that need it. This is one of the issues underlined in the resolution, which I supported."@en1
