"What I find positive in the report on defining a new development cooperation with Latin America is the differentiated approach to various countries. Aid to countries with average incomes will gradually be phased out and the criteria for aid will be more objective. From now on, the degree of inequality will also be taken into account. The Gini coefficient will, henceforth, also be included. The GDP is, indeed, insufficient as a benchmark. Parliament has rightly called for improved social cohesion, a redistribution of resources through a sound fiscal policy, and has considered the autonomy of parliaments, local authorities and civil society in its design of development strategies. Another good thing is that civil society is being asked to play a robust role in the fight against inequality. In addition, there is also the importance of monitoring the use of financial resources. Several green amendments have strengthened the whole thing. This is about the necessary coherence between trade and development, the importance of regional integration and the demand that the EU does not use the production of agro-fuels as development cooperation. Finally, our suggestions were accepted in order to tackle impunity and to support, politically and financially, the work of the Inter-American System of Human Rights, so that we can address violence against women."@en1
