 PRESS CONFERENCE ON ‘BUILDING ON GLENEAGLES’
While the commitments entered into at the Group of Eight Summit in Gleneagles had been essentially safeguarded at the United Nations World Summit, everyone wanted to see the process go further, British Prime Minister Tony Blair told correspondents at a Headquarters press conference today.
Gleneagles was not a single occasion, he stressed.  Hong Kong would provide another opportunity to turn commitments into reality and to make the Doha development agenda a “development friendly” agenda.  It was now a question of not losing momentum.
Geldof said Gleneagles had scored “10 out of 10” on the issue of aid.  While it was crude to mark in bold strokes, when appealing to vast constituencies, it was better that they understood what they had achieved.  He was not thrilled with the Summit outcome and would give it a “4”.
