"Latin America has received financial and technical assistance since the 1960s from the European Union, which is the number one provider of public assistance for development. The aim of EU development and cooperation policy is to combat poverty and social inequality, promote integration into the global economy and consolidate the rule of law. This takes the form of regional and bilateral agreements covering every area of commercial, technical, financial, cultural and political activity. The global economic and financial crisis is having a significant impact on European economies. However, it is noticeable that the crisis has had a less severe impact on Latin America and that the economic growth forecast for 2012 is 4.5%. The IMF clearly states that the uncertainties over global recovery could affect economic growth in Latin America. Despite the positive economic predictions, we are alarmed to observe that this is a region where 180 million people live below the poverty threshold and that 10 countries in the region remain among the 15 countries with the highest level of inequality in the world."@en1
