". I appreciate the fact that the EU, as one of the main donors of humanitarian aid, has advocated together with the Member States a renegotiation of the Food Aid Convention of 1999 and was the main driving force behind a modified Food Aid Convention at both EU and international levels. The main objective of the Food Aid Convention is to respond efficiently and effectively to the food and nutritional needs of the most vulnerable groups. As regards the general principles of food aid, I only support its provision when it is the most effective and efficient means of addressing the food and nutrition needs of the most vulnerable groups in society. I expect that countries will take on the commitment to ensure their food security and that they will create the conditions for reducing poverty and eradicating hunger. We must work for a Europe which is not only characterised by having a unity of interests, but also has an appropriate social security system, and most importantly one where citizens – if they are dependent on food aid – are not in a situation where they have to live on charity, which may be demeaning to them."@en1
