While it is useful and essential, however, to be a good fire-fighter, I feel that it is even more essential for us not to lapse into starting fires of our own. I should therefore like to address the subject of access to oil resources, which is becoming increasingly difficult and beset by conflict. It is an issue that has, to terrible effect, been fanning the flames of the situation in Darfur for a number of years.
Mais s’il est utile et indispensable d’être un bon pompier, je pense qu’il est encore plus indispensable de ne pas verser dans la pyromanie, et je voudrais aborder là la question de l’accès de plus en plus difficile et de plus en plus conflictuel à la ressource pétrolière, question qui a envenimé et aggravé de façon terrible la situation au Darfour depuis quelques années.
