When I read in the Commission documents that integration into the globalised world is the name of the game for poor countries, then I am afraid we overlook the fact that we, i.e. the western economies, are the ones pushing globalisation, and that we are therefore not actually seriously doing anything about what we regard as our number one priority, i.e. fighting poverty, because we often cause the very poverty we then seek to fight.
Wenn ich zudem in den Dokumenten der Kommission lese, die Integration in der globalisierten Welt sei für die armen Länder die Hauptsache, dann, so befürchte ich, übersieht man, dass ihnen diese Globalisierung von uns, von den westlichen Wirtschaften aufgezwungen wird.
