Thijs Berman
Thijs Berman is a Dutch politician and Member of the European Parliament for the Dutch Social Democrats (PvdA) for the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats since 2004. He is chairman of the delegation for relations with Afghanistan, and member of the Conference of Delegation Chairs, Committee on Development and Subcommittee on Human Rights.
Budget support has seemed to have lost its relevance as some middle-income countries (MICs), like China, have found their way to the G20 and are providing development aid themselves. When EU aid becomes pocket money for a partner country it is time to change the relationship.
