Financial package of €65.9 mn by @EBRD to #KyrgyzRepublic will help improve connectivity, water & electricity supply in the country. We’re creating sustainable & climate-resilient infrastructure

[The EBRD @EBRD]

The global shift to net zero will require major structural changes in economies, as well as extensive change in daily lives. The scale of this is unprecedented!
Our new #EBRDtr is out & here @bjavorcik explains what lies at the heart of our report.

Worth a read. How banks play a pivotal role in financing diffusion of green technologies but their legacy portfolios may be holding them back. And more.

With the eyes of the world on Israel and Gaza, I can confirm that @EBRD continues to support private businesses across the West Bank, while continuing to apply our rigorous standards.

We mourn the loss of all innocent lives in this conflict and hope for its peaceful resolution.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

I repeat my call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Middle East, the unconditional release of all hostages, and the delivery of life-saving supplies at the scale needed.

Everyone must assume their responsibilities.

This is a moment of truth.

History will judge us all.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The humanitarian system in Gaza is facing a total collapse with unimaginable consequences for more than 2 million civilians.

Needs are growing ever more critical & colossal.

Food, water, medicine & fuel must be allowed to reach all civilians swiftly, safely & at scale.
