President Calviño said: “More than ever, the world needs joint solutions to the challenges we face. We need to cooperate and reinforce our joint tools to tackle high indebtedness, to support countries on the frontline of climate change, and build a fairer financial system. As the financial arm of the European Union, owned by the 27 member states, the EIB Group is playing its part. In Washington we are announcing new support for Ukraine. And alongside our partners we will also be signing new investments and backing innovative financing to support climate action and resilience. When we act together, we move further and faster.”
The EIB delegation will be taking part in a number of events on the margins of the Annual Meeting in Washington.
