"I voted in favour of the report on defining a new development cooperation with Latin America. As the principal donor of development aid in Latin America, the European Union hopes to further cooperation in this region by promoting dialogue on climate change, innovation and the fight against drugs. Although Latin America has experienced the largest increase in growth in recent years, the region must continue its efforts to consolidate the Rule of Law. This is because, despite progress in terms of social justice and improved living standards, 52 million people live on less than two dollars a day. In this sense, there are many challenges yet to be addressed in the fight against poverty and social cohesion, the promotion of entrepreneurship and private sector development. It is equally important to encourage social services by investing in research and innovation. This new cooperation is also bound to enhance bi-regional relations through the signing of the association agreement with Central America. It also endorses the creation of a mechanism for investment in Latin America and the implementation of the EU-Latin America and Caribbean (EU-LAC) Foundation."@en1
