China has stopped accepting imported plastic and paper waste and implemented stricter guidelines for what it will take in.
This is what that means for the waste industry.
In important mtg, I thanked Spanish FM @JosepBorrellF for remarkable increase of Spain’s contribution to @UNRWA and expressed hope that new funding level could be preserved. Underlined importance of our work in education and conveyed my deep appreciation for Spain’s trust.
