". – Mr President, I am happy to pass on the message of this debate to my colleagues, Mr Lamy and Mr Nielson. I will, however, make a few comments.
You must remember that the real problem with the coffee sector is the lack of demand. The supply is essentially about the demand, and for that reason trade negotiations are not the only solution. It is very important that discussions in the World Bank/ICO context, or in ICO itself, lead to solutions.
Today's problem is that the United States, which is the second biggest coffee consumer, is outside the ICO. Unless the US is ready to reconsider its position in the context of ICO, then the measures will not have the same international impact.
As far as the proposal for an action plan before the next meeting and the level of Commission participation are concerned, I will pass Mrs Kinnock's questions to Mr Lamy and Mr Nielson. I am sure they will reply accordingly."@en1
