  • [01] European Union: €22 billion extra ODA up to 2006

    European Commissioner for Development and Humanitarian Aid, Poul Nielson, underlined at a press briefing today that the European Union (EU) has committed itself to make available around €22 billion in extra official development assistance (ODA) between now and 2006. The EU is already the developing world's biggest trade partner and aid donor. The EU also wants economic and social development to be accompanied by changes in consumption patterns in order to make development sustainable. Waste and transport are two examples of areas where it is becoming clear that trends must be broken.

    [02] Inde: la Commission adopte un cadre de coopération (document de stratégie)

    La Commission européenne a adopté le document de stratégie élaboré pour l'Inde, qui définit un programme d'assistance s'étendant sur cinq ans en faveur de ce pays. L'UE devrait affecter un montant de 225 millions d'euros au développement et à la coopération économique avec l'Inde au cours de cette période.

    [03] La Commission accorde €36 millions de plus à la Côte d'Ivoire

    La Commission européenne a décidé d'octroyer à la Côte d'Ivoire la seconde tranche du Programme indicatif national au titre du 8e Fonds Européen de Développement (FED), soit €36 millions. Ce montant s'ajoute aux €84 millions de la première tranche. Ces €120 millions seront utilisés en large partie pour financer une aide renforcée au budget de l'Etat ivoirien pour l'exercice 2002, ciblé dans les secteurs de la santé, l'agriculture et l'environnement ainsi que le planning régional et la décentralisation.

    [04] Commission clears joint venture between Karlsberg and Brauholding International

    The European Commission has cleared under the Merger Regulation the acquisition of a 45% stake by Brauholding International in the Karlsberg group's subsidiary Brauerei- und Biervertriebsgesellschaft. The transaction will leave the two parents in joint control of a company whose main business is brewing and beer wholesaling in Germany, but this does not give rise to any competition concerns as the German beer market is a very competitive one.
