(7) Given the similarities in addressing the basic needs of disaster-stricken people within the Union through the provision of emergency support and in providing humanitarian aid to people affected by man-made or natural disasters in third countries, all operations under this Regulation should be conducted in compliance with internationally-agreed humanitarian principles. Those actions constitute measures appropriate to the economic situation of the Member States facing those difficulties and complementing Union action encouraging cooperation between Member States in order to improve the effectiveness of systems for preventing and protecting against natural or man-made disasters.
