We also extend our appreciation the outgoing President Salvatore Sciacchitano for his excellent chairmanship of the ICAO Council over the past six years.
@EU_ICAO
🇪🇺✈️🌍With @EU_Commission in the lead, we joined @EBRD & @AfDB_Group in committing to help develop, produce & deploy Sustainable Aviation Fuel & cleaner energies at #AUEU25.
This is in line with aviation goals of net zero carbon emissions by 2050.

Renewable energy is key for security of supply and for reaching our climate goals.
And Africa has huge potential for it.
Together, we can help power Africa with clean energy, bringing immense opportunities for African people and the world.
Join us on 21 November for the pledging summit of our Scaling Up Renewables in Africa Campaign!

🎯 To meet ReFuelEU Aviation and FuelEU Maritime Regulation targets by 2035, approximately 20 million tonnes of sustainable alternative fuels will be needed – this calls for an estimated €100 billion to drive production.

The 🇪🇺 Commission sends a clear signal to EU transport industry & investors: renewable & low-carbon fuels are 🔑 to the ✈️🚢 sectors' energy transition.
With the adoption of the Sustainable Transport Investment Plan, #EUTransport is responding to the need to unlock investments.
EU welcomes today's @ICAO condemnation of Russia for undermining global aviation safety by repeatedly interfering with GNSS signals in Europe.
#ICAOA42 urgently called for Russia to halt these interferences and to fulfil its international obligations.

Europe stands side by side with Africa on its clean energy path.
Glad to announce a new Team Europe package of €545 million for renewables in Africa.
it's a big milestone in our campaign with South Africa supported by civil society org. @GlblCtzn
Next up: the G20 Summit!
👏Congratulations to European States elected to the ICAO Council @ 42nd ICAO Assembly!
Part I: France, Germany, Italy, UK
Part II: Denmark (NORDICAO), Switzerland (ABIS), Spain.
Supporting Poland (CERG) in Part III & looking forward to the next triennium of global cooperation!
Good news from Montréal, where the 42nd ICAO Assembly takes place. Russia failed to get elected to both groups 1 and 2 of the ICAO Council.
This is a welcome development — a state that wages full-scale aggression, disregards aviation safety, and the Chicago Convention cannot shape the future of global civil aviation.
The 42nd ICAO Assembly’s work strengthens global aviation security, defends the rules-based order, and holds the aggressor accountable.
Congratulations to all States elected the @icao Council.
We look forward continuing working with all of you during the upcoming triennium to support a safe, secure and sustainable international civil aviation.
In Montreal, Canada, I spoke at the opening of the 42nd General Assembly of the @icao.
Aviation is more than just an industry. It is a vital link that connects people and countries. Europe remains fully committed to working with ICAO and its Member States toward a safer and more sustainable future for aviation.
In the margins of the Assembly, I held meetings with Ministers of Transport from around the world, including @SecDuffy of the United States, H.E. Saleh bin Nasser AlJasser of Saudi Arabia, Hiromasa Nakano of Japan, @stevenmackinnon of Canada, as well as with the heads of ICAO and IATA. I also chaired the joint meeting of the EU Member States with ICAO and represented the EU at the 8th Ministerial Session of the International Aviation Climate Ambition Coalition (IACAC).
We also marked the 20th anniversary of the EU’s Representation to ICAO in Montreal. For two decades, Europe has been a dedicated partner of ICAO, working to advance safe, sustainable, and innovative aviation worldwide.
Finally, I met with MEPs of the @EP_Transport of the European Parliament that are taking part in ICAO’s General Assembly.
#icao42
I visited the @Airbus facilities & the A220 Final Assembly Line in Mirabel, Canada.
The A220 is a clear example of how European innovation drives efficiency and sustainability in aviation – reducing fuel consumption and emissions, and contributing to our goal of carbon-neutral aviation by 2050.
We need European industry leaders like Airbus to maintain the EU’s competitiveness in the global aviation sector.
It is therefore our common responsibility to ensure aviation can continue to develop in an ever safer, more secure & sustainable manner.
🤝Europe remains committed to working closely with ICAO & its Member States towards this objective, ensuring that no country is left behind.
🐝A full couple of days for #EUTransport at the @ICAO 42nd Assembly!
Commissioner @Tzitzikostas spoke at the #ICAOA42 opening:
