Super
Typhoon Haiyan has caused a major humanitarian disaster in the Philippines. I
would like to see the EU emergency response machinery to be fully mobilised to
provide assistance without any further delay. And to do so in close
coordination with the UN.
Then,
on a second phase, the donors should meet with the Manila government and be
prepared to fund an extensive reconstruction and investment programme to
rehabilitate and strengthen the resilience of the areas affected by the
disaster.
You
react to this by telling me I believe in a better world. Yes, I do. Enhancing
international cooperation in situations like this is key step towards that
world.
