"Mr President, I have ninety seconds and it is not a great deal of time, but I want you and the House to reflect on this. I speak as the rapporteur on the mid-term review of Millennium Development Goals.
The United Nations estimates that in ninety seconds, by the time I sit down, 45 people will have died in the developing world. One death every two seconds, deaths from preventable diseases, malnutrition, from complications giving birth, from HIV- and Aids-related illnesses, from TB, from malaria. A death every two seconds. That is why we must meet our Millennium Development Goals commitments in the G20 as well as leading at the UN; and that is why we must keep our commitment to continue funding those vital projects in the developing countries.
I have twenty seconds left, and I would ask your indulgence in the House that we say no more until my time is up, but reflect on those 45 deaths that will have occurred in these ninety seconds."@en1
