Glen ( and everyone else) There is a full English translation of all the news on that very same website. Just click any of the 3 word icons ( below the header picture) and it will take you to the HOMEpage. From there you will be able to find full translations which will include the sections and recommendations passed by the summit delegates. I hope this helps.
