It apparently was not very convincing. The fault for that
Not ours because we stressed very strongly for this! It is the fault of the inviting power: Americans have preferred that the g-20 format. Need to review it. The France also wants a rebalancing of voting rights at the IMF and the World Bank for Africa. Cannot be simply an IMF which requires these countries to spend both in health or education without the means to do so.
Why would it grant rights to vote in an Africa which is even not invited to the same table as rich countries
I hope that it will be at the next Summit and you can count on the European Union for this. It must be that Egypt, Nigeria, Ethiopia, for example, be present. It cannot be a regulation of the rich leaving aside the poor!
On aid to Africa, you make sure that it will be increased. The NGOs argue the contrary. Who believe
NGOs protest and they are partly right, it is their job. But we do not lower our help, we are increasing it even a little. In 2009, our rate of public aid will increase from 0.37 to 0.47 of the GDP. We have even obtain permissions for additional commitments for 2009 EUR 89 million. Committed to double aid to the Agence française de développement (AFD) for Africa. In addition, with EUR 300 million per year, the France is the second world contributor to the AIDS Fund and the first of the European Union development aid. And we will increase our contribution to the European Development Fund of 800 to 852 million euros in 2009. But it must also take into account the social situation of the countries that are supposed to give money. How to explain to people who are unemployed should increase development assistance In fact, it should be because the consequences of a slowdown in African assistance would be very harmful, including our own growth.
Yet, according to the European Commissioner Louis Michel, the rich "mégotent somewhat generosity"...
It does not prevent to give more, there a lot of money! And the France gives EUR 852 million! Of course I would be happy to give double. But, these days, it seems to me difficult...
What will be the impact of the crisis on investment in Africa
We must continue to invest! We have many more opportunities by investing in Africa in Nations like ours. A huge place must be made to developing countries. Do not forget poor countries under the pretext that we will be worse in rich countries.
How to maintain the presence of the France in Africa to China
Must be a joint work with China, which should not oppose. How to oppose a country offering prices of 30-40 lower than yours But the France must also love Africa. And give investors the taste of settle, should not be infinitely, helping them. Unfortunately, the French investments in Africa do not reinforce. Even if there are things that work both major companies such as Bollore, Bouygues, Areva or da Vinci than SMEs.
