A useful discussion with @DrDavidMasondo on South Africa’s perspective.

Nigeria and the EU face many common challenges, so it was useful to discuss many of them with Wale Edun, @FinMinNigeria 🇳🇬🇪🇺

We talked about the economic situation, alongside fiscal policy, financial inclusion and sustainable finance.

In my meeting with @FettahNadia, I expressed my solidarity with Morocco in their efforts to recover from the recent earthquake.

Our wide-ranging discussion also covered topics including the importance of education and financing the green transition.

[Mairead McGuinness @McGuinnessEU]

While in Morocco, the hosts of #AM2023, it’s great to learn more about the country’s financial system.

My thanks to Fatima-Zahra Aziz and @FFinanciere for telling more about the experience with financial education in Morocco.

At the end of 2022, the EU created the role of International Special Envoy for the Implementation of EU Sanctions. Tune into the new @EU_Finance podcast episode to hear from @D0Sullivan (former @EUintheUS Ambassador) about what he's been up to in the role: https://t.co/jEU0wjYLC6

[Ursula von der Leyen @vonderleyen]

Glad to discuss with our EU sanctions envoy @D0Sullivan about enforcement of EU sanctions against Russia and tackling circumvention.

Coordination with our partners is crucial.

We remain strongly committed to weakening Russia‘s war machine through sanctions.

[Mairead McGuinness @McGuinnessEU]

🚨Basel deal: after a long night of negotiations we reached a deal on the banking package to finalise the implementation of the international Basel standards in the EU.
