I welcome ADB’s first formal partnership with the International Committee of the Red Cross (@ICRC), a significant step toward strengthening resilience in fragile and conflict-affected areas across Asia and the Pacific.

I look forward to advancing this partnership as we combine our complementary strengths to solve complex challenges together.
