Den tilgrundliggende opfattelse var, at en generel for bedring af væksten i verdensøkonomien automatisk ville have løst problemet, idet debitorerne således vil le have fået et tilstrækkelig højt økonomisk udviklingsniveau. lingsniveau.
The Commission's answer has to be negative for one basic reason: you all know just as well as I do that there are at least two Member States which have con stitutional difficulties in accepting at least one of the central questions raised by your amendments.
Dette, hr. formand, er faktisk ikke indtruffet, og hel ler ikke de seneste initiativer synes tilstrækkelige til at sætte skub i udviklingen i debitorlandene.
The Commission cannot approach Member States in order for them to change their Constitutions, since it has no legal base for doing so.
Hvis disse landes økonomiske resultater i 1985 gav anledning til bekymring, så er udsigterne for indeværende år ikke mindre foruroligende.
In any case, if this is really your political aim, since you know perfectly well who these two Member States are, I call on you to change the two Constitutions in question first; once this has been done, then the Commission will be able to do what you ask. But it cannot be done the other way round.
van Aerssen (PPE). — (DE) Hr. formand, mine da mer og herrer, jeg takker fru Barbarella for hendes ord, hvormed hun endnu en gang gjorde det klart, at bevidstheden om dette vigtige spørgsmål skal styrkes.
Mrs Rabbethge asked me what would the position of the Commission, in general terms, be on the conclusion emerging from the Nairobi Conference.
I grunden fortsætter vi her en forhandling, som vi allerede førte på aprilmødet med kommissionsformand Delors om spørgsmålet, hvorledes topmødet i Tokio skulle forberedes.
In general terms, Mr President, without wishing to become embroiled in a detailed discussion, the Commission feels that the Conference marked a step forward in comparison with the situation prior to it.
For os er spørgsmålet, hr. formand, hvor længe disse lande kan blive ved med at klare en hyre åreladning af midler til fordel for kreditorlandene, uden at de får nogen egentlig garanti for reel vækst.
However, I would like to emphasize something which is quite evident, and which other speakers have referred to: it is all very well that the European Economic Community should be concerned, within the setting of the United Nations, about problems affecting women on a world scale, but we must recognize that our own internal strength and coherence are limited.
Man behøver blot at nævne, at Latinamerika i årene fra 1982 til 1985 alene har overført 106 milliarder dollars til for rentning af gælden, deraf 30 milliarder i 1985, hvor bruttonationalproduktet pr. indbygger i samme regi on af verden kun steg med 0,5%, men reelt faldt med 1,5%, hvis man ser bort fra Brasilien, der er det ene ste land, der kan opvise et positivt resultat.
I say it is limited because it is quite easy for us to speak about the problems facing women in the Third and Fourth Worlds, but when it is a matter of implementing certain policies within the European Community, we find we are powerless.
Med andre ord er bruttonationalproduktet i Latinamerika i løbet af sidste år vendt tilbage til samme niveau som i 1977. Det er resultatet af den restriktive omlægningspolitik, landene fik pålagt af Den internationale Valutafond!
To take an example readily to hand, as you said earlier, the Council of Ministers of 5 June almost rejected the Programme of Positive Measures for women in the Community, because they wanted to cancel the budget line corresponding to the Action Programme for women.
Hr. Delors sagde dengang, at det var nødvendigt at oprette den manglende balance, som truer ver densøkonomien, og fjerne handelsprotektionisme, nogle landes store gældsbyrde og svingende valuta kurser.
Mr Ford (S). — Mr President, on a point of order. Following the tragic events in Austria on Sunday and the election of Kurt Waldheim as President of Austria, I would like to ask you if you would ask the President of Parliament to make a statement at an appropriate time to tell us whether or not a message of congratulations has been sent to Mr Waldheim following the elections in which anti-semitism raised its head again?
Desuden var en stærk udvikling af verdens handelen det bedste middel til, at de lande, som befinder sig i en vanskelig situation, kan udarbejde en langsigtet løsning på deres problemer.
If a message has not been sent, will he commit himself to not sending a message and will he further commit himself not to invite Mr Waldheim to Parliament while he is serving as President of Austria.
Personlig er jeg enig i hr. Delors' udtalelser.
President. — Mr Ford, your question was not exactly a point of order.
Jeg er imidlertid også enig i, at problemerne er blevet værre siden da, netop fordi eksportoverskuddet er sunket drastisk for de lande, som eksporterer olie.
As you are undoubtedly aware, I can not open the President of Parliament's correspondence to learn what type of telegram he sent to the elected President of Austria.
For at betale renterne af gælden — jeg understreger: blot renterne og ikke gælden — har debitorlandene været nødt til at begrænse deres import og følgelig deres produktionsaktiviteter, investeringer og forbrug og har blandt andet måttet skride til omfattende so ciale nedskæringer.
It is very difficult for a Community representative to go and preach to the Third and Fourth Worlds — and I am using the word 'preach' in its worst sense — when we are unable to set in motion even the most modest coherent policy in favour of women back at home. I am sorry to have to say this.
Et land, som vi for øjeblikket er særlig positivt ind stillet overfor, er Mexico, hvor VM i forbold — og jeg håber, at det er en folkeforenende begivenhed — fin der sted; Mexiko har alene i år mistet eksportindtægter på 2,75 mia DM.
This was the con clusion of the Council of Ministers of 5 June, which I will be informing you of later, since, quite apart from the fact that they are different situations, there is a base and a recognition of what the role of women is.
Renterne af gælden, som landet skal betale, overstiger eksport indtægterne.
I am of the opinion that the Community is not being consistent in its own internal situations.
Som den, der havde ordet før mig, sagde, er det en dramatisk situation.
They were not adopted because the Council of Ministers flatly rejected them.
Selv om dette måske kan gennemtvinges i en nødssituation, er det utænkeligt at se det strække sig over en længere periode.
Mr van Aerssen (PPE). — (DE) Since Mr Ford has been allowed to speak on a point of order, may I say that it is not the business of this House to interfere in the internal election results of another nation.
Nr. 2-340/59 van Aerssen lang sigt inden for GATT-runden, også selv om det vil tage nogle år.
No 2-340/59 van Aerssen generally concentrates on doing its own homework within the European Community.
Vi bør heller ikke vække falske for håbninger her; for så vidt havde De, hr. kommissær, ret i Deres udtalelser for en uge siden her i Strasbourg. bourg.
The question that a number of colleagues and I are putting to the Commission is prompted by the exist ence of a situation that offers increasingly fewer pros pects to the overwhelming majority of the debtor countries.
En kapitalflugt fra Latinamerikas lande skal for hindres med alle midler.
Foreign debt of Third World and certain Latin American countries
De latinamerikanske stater har i eftermiddag endnu en gang gennem repræsentanterne for Andes-parlamentet klart givet udtryk for, at de ønsker et regionalt samarbejde i lighed med det i Det europæiske Fælles skab.
We wonder, in fact, Mr President, how long these countries can allow the enormous drainage of resources to go on in favour of the creditor countries without their being guaranteed any prospect of real growth.
Når et sådant regionalt samarbejde fungerer og koordineres på internationalt plan med de midler, der står til vor rådighed, uden at vi påtager os ansvaret for alt, som det er sket tidligere, kunne vi — tror jeg — komme løsningen af dette problem et stort skridt nærmere.
Just consider — over the period 1982-1985 Latin America alone transferred 106 000 million dollars to the creditor countries in debt servicing pay ments, and no less than 30 000 million in 1985 alone, during which year, in the same area, per capita GNP increased by barely 0.5%; and indeed, if we exclude Brazil, which is the only country to have positive results, it fell in fact by 1.5%.
Sammenfattende kan jeg for udvalget om eksterne økonomiske forbindelser sige, at det glæder os, at det te initiativ er kommet i stand fra mange sider i Par lamentet.
In other words, over the last year per capita GNP in Latin America returned to the 1977 limits.
Cheysson, medlem af Kommissionen. — (FR) Hr. for mand, tillad mig først at takke forespørgerne for den ne debat, der finder sted efter en række vigtige møder i Verdensbankens og Valutafondens interimskomiteer efter topmødet i Tokio, efter FNs særmøde om Afrika, som fortsætter den debat, der fandt sted i Europa-Parlamentet, og som fru Barbarella nævnte for lidt siden, og drøftelserne i udviklingsudvalget, og den finder sted før en debat, der skal afholdes i De for enede Nationers generalforsamling — det er lige be sluttet — forud for Deres egen forhandling om nord syd til februar.
In fact, to pay the interest on their indebtedness — and I emphasise it is just the interest, not the debt — the debtor countries have had to cut their imports — and hence their production, their investments, and their consumption — and have had amongst other things to make very serious social cuts.
Denne kritik fra fru Barbarella tilslutter jeg mig uden forbehold. Også jeg er af den mening, hr. kommissær — og initiativet ligger jo i henhold til Rom-traktaterne i høj grad i Deres hænder — at Bakerplanen bør gennemføres gradvis og konsekvent.
Mrs Barbarella (COM). — (IT) Mr President, a figure for Third World indebtedness, that by the end of this year — that is to say, 1986 — will exceed 1 m million dollars, absolutely cannot be treated as a simple statistic.
Det betyder, at vi ikke når en global politisering af gældsproblemet, men ærligt forhandler fra sag til sag og med hvert enkelt land og også om nødvendigt gennemfører nye forhandlinger, gør indrømmelser, giver efter og bistår vore venner.
Nevertheless, the situation is still very worrying, as is shown by the fact that the United States themselves have been obliged in recent months to change their attitude on the question of indebtedness and, to some extent, to correct the strategy that had been followed since 1982.
En global politisering er ikke i overensstemmelse med den plan, som min gruppe og retsudvalget her går ind for.
Now, although a situation of this kind may be unavoidable in an emergency, it is unthinkable to see it extended over a long period of time.
Jeg anmoder Dem endnu en gang, hr. kommissær, om at undersøge i hvilken form Den europæiske Investeringsbank kan samarbejde med de internationale institutioner, med de multinationale og multilaterale organisationer.
How in fact can we ask governments, Mr President, especially those of democratic countries, to undertake unpopular reforms, if these same governments cannot count on an easing of the debt and new financial resources which alone would allow them to resume their growth?
Vi har nu en tid med fromme ønsker for de fattige og svage, men også for de stærke og riges egocentricitet, støttet af den over bevisning at man skal overlade alt til markedets lov, og at de offentlige myndigheder derfor ikke har noget ansvar i denne sag.
At that time, the policy was to tackle the emergency and ensure that the creditor banks received debt ser vicing payments, without however doing anything to reduce the burden of the debt itself.
I den forbindelse skal imidlertid også reglerne ændres.
In African countries, particularly the sub-Sahelian countries, the situation is even more dramatic.
Da vi i dag har besøg af delegationen fra Andes-parlamentet, vil vi gerne minde vore venner i Andes-parlamentet om, at det er vort fælles anliggende at skabe et bedre investeringsklima i Latinamerika. ka.
But even though their indebtedness causes less concern to the International Monetary System, seeing that it is in essence a public debt rather than a private one, the real circumstances of these countries are truly tragic.
Et samarbejde mellem de internationale banker og Den europæiske Investeringsbank er vort erklærede
This did not happen, in fact, Mr President, nor do the most recent initiatives seem sufficient to get things moving again in the debtor countries.
Hr. formand, de gældsatte landes alvorlige situation er hyppigt blevet beskrevet: Latinamerika har en gæld på 450 mia $, Sahara-landene på 80 mia; renter og afdrag på gælden ville, hvis ydelserne blev betalt, for Afrikas vedkommende andrage 28% af eksport indtægten, og repræsenterer for de latinamerikanske lande reelt 40-50% af eksportindtægten ; eksporten er kvantitativt blokeret, fordi markederne er mættede, og fordi samhandelsvilkårene forringes, hvilket med-
It is therefore these points, these needs and the assess ment of this dramatic situation that have prompted our two questions to the Commission, from which we should in fact like to know in what way it considers the burden of interest payments could be reduced — which is of fundamental importance to these coun tries; in what way does it think it can help new finance to be made available to these countries; and, finally, we should like to know whether, in the light of the very worrying results of the special conference of the United Nations, it considers an initiative in respect of the sub-Sahelian countries would be useful.
Fællesskabsbistanden danner en undtagelse, takket være Lomé Ills ikrafttræden og forøgelsen af fødevarehjælpen. Men på det multilaterale plan i øvrigt er vanskelighederne alvorlige.
Community and Latin America, which the Commission put to the Council in 1984, have in no way been acted on to date.
fører en nedgang i importen, der nu anslås til 35%; pengene udefra skrumper ind, idet bankerne er nede på et rekordlavt niveau på 23 mia $ for Latinamerikas vedkommende og den offentlige udviklingsbistand enten stagnerer eller falder. Nettooverførslen hidrører fra forskellen mellem det, som disse lande har betalt til os industrilande, og det de har modtaget fra os; den androg 100 mia $ — jeg gentager: 100 mia $ — på tre år, og i det kommende år, ja også i år, kan nettooverførslen vel i betragtning af olieprisfaldet nå op på 45 mia $.
In conclusion, Mr President, whilst realising the con straints and circumstances that limit the Commission's room for manoeuvre and action, we consider that, in the interests of the Community and in Europe's inter ests, the Commission should show greater courage and take on a stimulating, guiding role in the search for a lasting solution to the problem of indebtedness.
På den anden side er mulighederne for overførsel af midler fra Valutafonden brudt sammen.
I unreservedly endorse this criticism of Mrs Barbarella's.
Dér hvor vi havde 67 mia $ om året, har vi nu indbetalinger til Valutafonden, altså en negativ overførsel.
I also think, Sir, and under the Rome Treaties the initiative lies largely with you, that the Baker plan should be gradually and consistently implemented.
Det er rig tigt og giver grund til tilfredshed, at strukturtilpasningsfonden for sin regning overtager indbetalinger til forvaltningsfonden på 2,7 mia $.
This means that we should not globally politicise the debt problem, but should deal honestly on a case-by-case basis with each country, renegotiating if neces sary.
Under disse omstændigheder er det ikke overraskende at konstatere, at bruttonationalproduktet pr. ind bygger, levestandarden, er faldet med 11 % i nominel værdi på fem år, og heller ikke at konsekvenserne deraf er alvorlige for os.
Mr van Aerssen (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, I am grateful to Mrs Barbarella for her remarks which once again make clear the need for greater awareness of this important question.
Kan man gå videre i visse tilfælde?
Politicizing the issue is not in line with the views of my Group and the Legal Affairs Committee here.
Man tror, man drømmer!
I myself agree with Commissioner Delors.
Man kan ikke lade være med at nære sympati for sangeren Bob Geldorf, der kommenterer det te med to ord: ridiculous and futile. Det er situation en for de fattigste landes vedkommende.
But I also agree that the problems have since become more acute because of the drastic fall in export earnings by those countries which are oil exporters.
Uruguays præsident nævnte i en skrivelse til Tokio-mødets del tagere en tilbagevenden til det historiske renteniveau, til råstofprisernes retablering, til protektionismens af skaffelse og til retablering af kapitalstrømmene.
We once again ask our Latin American friends and brothers, who share with us a common culture and almost a common language, to do what they can to improve the climate for investment in their countries.
Det er faktisk emnerne, og hertil føjer jeg den omlægning af gælden, som er foregået under normale, men interessante omstændigheder for de private kreditter og under bemærkelsesværdige omstændigheder for de offentlige kreditters vedkommende.
But the codices will also have to be amended. Today we have the truly nice and friendly delegation from the Andean Parliament as our guests, and I would remind our Andean friends that it is in the interests of all of us to create a better climate for investment in Latin America.
Nu vil jeg sammen med Europa-Parlamentets medlemmer finde ud af, hvor vi står.
Everything must be done to prevent a flight of capital from the countries of Latin America.
Med hensyn til finansieringen af de stærkest forgældede lande lyttede Seoul-mødets deltagere med le vende interesse til den amerikanske finansminister Bakers tale, hvori han erkendte nødvendigheden af en støt vækst.
A country for which we currently cherish warm feel ings is Mexico, which is hosting the World Cup — an event which, I hope, brings the nations closer together.
Talen gav faktisk udtryk for en bemærkelsesværdig vending, idet De forenede Stater er kendte, at udviklingen i de Latinamerikanske og an dre lande havde deres interesse.
Mexico alone has lost 2.75 billion DM this year in export revenues.
For det første : hvad angår de kapitalstrømme, som Uruguays præsident sagde vi skulle retablere, er der sket punktvise forbedringer, men ser vi situationen lige i øjene, er der sket er generel forværring.
The fact that we are discussing the matter here does not mean that the Commission should now come up with proposals for a kind of Lomé Convention with the states of Latin America.
Intet industrilands regering har indvilliget i at slå en streg over gælden.
What we want is a multilateral open trading system, and we want to push this through in the long term in GATT, even if it takes a few years.
Tilbageholdenheden er fremdeles stor på dette område afskræk for at bryde med et af markedsøkonomiens hovedprincipper.
We should not raise any false hopes here, and to that extent you were right, Mr Commissioner, in what you said here in Strasbourg a week ago.
Hvad angår offentlig udviklingshjælp, som er det, der mest interesserer de fattigste, altså landene i Afrika, er den bilaterale hjælp stagnerende.
The Latin American states have reiterated quite clearly this afternoon, in the statement by the members of the Andean Parliament, that they aspire to regional cooperation on the European Community model.
Verdensbanken kastede sig beslutsomt ud i aktionen, idet dens udbetalinger til de af finansminister Baker udpegede modtagerlande steg fra 2,7 til 5,6 mia $ i årets løb.
But it is important to see that the European Com munity cannot accept responsibility for the past, but that we must think what strategy we want to adopt.
Begejstringen blandt næstformændene, især dem vi mødte i Bruxelles, og udnævelsen af en poli tiker af format som leder af banken er opmuntrende.
We have an instrument to which I myself would draw attention, to which Parliament has repeatedly alluded, and that is the European Investment Bank.
Samme bemærkning vil jeg gøre om regionalbankerne, idet jeg bemærkner, at den asiatiske bank og den interamerikanske bank har oprettet filialer efter de internationale finansselskabers mønster. Det er ud mærket.
The European Investment Bank should be empowered by its Board of Governors to take action in Latin America and help ease the problems which have arisen here.
Med hensyn til udvidelse af Verdensbankens kapital, som er af vigtighed, hvis bankens tydeligt tilkendegivne hensigter skal blive til noget, støder vi i øje blikket på amerikansk modstand.
Summit, after the United Nations special session on Africa, which carries on the European Parliament's previous debate, to which Mrs Barbarella was refer ring just now, and the discussions in the Committee on Development, and which precedes a United Nations General Assembly debate, which it has just been decided will go ahead, and your own debate on the North-South relationship which is to be held next February. ruary.
Føjer jeg hertil, at samhandelsvilkårene hele tiden forringes, og at der alene i 1985 er sket en forringelse på 15% for »den tredje verdens salg af råstoffer i forhold til fabriksfremstillede varer fra industrilandene«, er jeg færdig med min beskrivelse af situationen, som De vil give mig ret i er dyster.
This is just about the full range, except that I would add the continuation of rescheduling, which has been proceeding under normal but interesting con ditions in the case of private loans, and under quite remarkable conditions in that of public loans.
Forretningsbankerne har opfattet budskabet fra Se oul. De blev opfordret til at gøre en større indsats; resultatet blev, at de gør meget mindre.
The efforts of the Paris Club are too often forgotten, but they have led to the rescheduling of 32 countries' public debt and, in 1985 alone, were the means whereby 19 billion dollars of debt was wiped out.
Deres andel er faldet til 2 mia $ i Latinamerika. Det er bundrekord!
It is true that the Community plays a leading role in the Paris Club, accounting for 50% of this rescheduling.
Kan man da håbe, hr. formand, at der er sket frem skridt med hensyn til fremme af mulighederne for at lave fællesvirksomheder? Jeg vil gerne nævne et en kelt, meget talende tal, fordi det vedrører Europas økonomisk stærkeste land, Tyskland, hvis eksterne investeringer i u-landene for blot få år siden udgjorde 28% af totalbeløbet.
I am grateful for this opportunity for another reason, which is general in scope and, to my mind even more serious: the current situation in which things have got worse for various Third World countries, overall solutions are proving slow to materialize, and the trend in the industrialized world is increasingly drifting away from the trend in the Third World.
De er nu faldet til 3% til u-landene, og disse småbeløb er endda meget selektive; Uruguay og Chile klarer sig en anelse mindre dårligt end de øvrige lande.
We have entered a period of pious hopes for the poor and weak, but at the same time of selfishness on the part of the strong and rich, confident in the conviction that everything must be left to market forces and therefore that these are matters outside the remit of governments.
Der er et dagligt produktionsoverskud på mellem 2 og 3 mio tønder olie.
Let us therefore take a look at the current situation together.
Hvordan kan man så forbavses over, at priserne er gået ned?
This is a serious situation.
Da de er faldet fra 28 til 16 $ pr. tønde, konstaterer jeg, at importlandene opnår en besparelse på ca. 100 mia $ pr. år.
And our debate today, like many others, should cast a naked light on it, accentuating the shadows, in an attempt to disturb the com placent torpor into which governments have lapsed a present, more concerned with their domestic affairs than with the rest of the world.
For nogle landes vedkommende er det en katastrofe, ja afgrunden, som for Venezuela, Equador, men især Mexico, det ved alle, og på en måde også for Egypten.
In no case has any government of an industrialized country agreed to cancel debt.
