Mr President, I am in favour of getting the voting process underway, since we knew we would be under pressure of time. All groups in the Committee on Development have expressly requested that the voting be concluded, so that the Council can take our position to next week’s meeting. If we do not vote now, then everything will be over for Africa. There will, of course, still be discussions, but this item will no longer be on the agenda.
It is not ideal, of course, that we are voting now rather than this afternoon, for example, because a different time schedule applies this afternoon, but now that things are the way they are, I am in favour of the voting going ahead, so that we can take ourselves as Parliament seriously."@en1
