lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, Commissioner, I would praise you for your swift actions, amongst others, in reacting to this remarkable crisis that the UN Food Programme has brought about. I have a couple of concrete questions for you about it: do we think there is a systemic problem within the World Food Programme that brought about the suspension of aid? Were they simply overwhelmed, in which case we lent a hand to the tiller? Or is there a policy issue that actually led to this remarkable action, which really does need to be examined further given its consequences? I was glad to hear about your joint trip to the region with your fellow Commissioners, and the humanitarian aspects of this are only part of the story. As you rightly say, we need a political solution. Therefore, could you give us a bit more information about how the EU and your services are coordinating amongst the Member States as regards the ongoing military engagement of a number of our Member States within this theatre, which are having a variety of consequences, and indeed as regards a coherent refugee policy on the part of a number of our Member States, some of whom have considerably better records than others?"@en1
