lpv:translated text	". − It is estimated that a forest the size of a football pitch is destroyed every two seconds worldwide, costing EUR 12 billion per year in damages. In a report published in March, the World Bank stated that illegal deforestation in some countries represents as much as 90% of all deforestation activities and generates between USD 10 and 15 billion dollars a year in illegal proceeds. Large-scale illegal deforestation operations are often linked to high-level corruption and to organised crime networks. The agreements approved today are an important step forward to promote sustainable trade in timber, as well as public awareness on this issue. I am confident that the proceeds of the sale of Liberian timber will no longer be used to finance bloodshed. We must also ensure that the rights and the concerns of the indigenous peoples of the Central African Republic are fully taken into account by their authorities."@en1
