Seanad debates
Thursday, 10 October 2002
Address by President of the European Parliament.
Senators may not know it, but the European Union and its member states outspend the United States of America 2.5 to 1 every year in humanitarian aid, in nation building and on sustainability projects. If one believes in sustainability, international solidarity and the values which lie behind the International Criminal Court, how could we pervert them in the travesty of the debate which many people who say they have those values fail to espouse?
