Jump To Comment: 1speeches from the spanish language block (representing the first language of about 352 million people, or by 417 million including non-native speakers (according to 1999 estimates). Arguably, it is, after English, now considered the second most important language in the world) have reflected the left centre priorities of those states and have mostly paid tribute to the Swiss contribution to the UN, who have in turn mirrored both spanish and so far half of "the nordic block" agreeing with the Spanish King's assertion that the "most noble war humanity might fight is that on poverty" they agree on :-
*non aggression.
*legal war.
*microcredit.
This contrasts with the english language block representing the third most spoken native language worldwide (after Chinese and Hindi ahead of Spanish) with some 380 million speakers, who are supporting
* illegal "premptive" war.
* "super-national monitoring"
* fighting terror before poverty (direct qoute Bush)
*****************************************************
it is vitally important to remember that the current World Summit is to discuss the millenium goals, and counter terror is not one of those goals, it arrived on the table after 2000 in the 21st century and though undeniably important is on a list of priorities.
