My take from the #GlobalGateway Forum: when some move away from the multilateral global order, the rest of the world is moving forward.

The @eib.org Group is @ec.europa.eu ‘s key partner in delivering the EU Global Gateway strategy, building win-win partnerships around the world.

I welcome the agreement reached on the initial phase of the peace proposal presented by President Trump.

Its implementation paves the way for the long-awaited release of all Israeli hostages, a ceasefire in Gaza, and an end to the severe humanitarian crisis on the ground.

New GEMs statistics reveal that investing in emerging markets may be less risky than often perceived.

Loans from Multilateral Development Banks and Development Finance Institutions show default and recovery rates comparable to those in advanced economies.
