I am glad to be at the #GFCM#FishForum2024
Let's keep working on:
🔹 Long-term sustainability of stocks
🔹 Profitability and well-being of fishing sector
🔹 Mitigating climate-change & biodiversity loss
🔹 Generational renewal
🔹 Energy & digital transitions
Interested in the #CetaByM pilot project❓Carried out in collaboration with @ACCOBAMS, it's dedicated to assessing 🐬cetacean #bycatch in Black Sea turbot gillnet fisheries and testing measures to mitigate incidental catches of cetaceans.

Tonight, my thoughts are with the families of the two victims of the despicable attack in Brussels.
I extend my heartfelt support to the Belgian police, so they swiftly apprehend the suspect.
Together, we stand united against terror.
We are honoured to contribute to the Ministerial Declaration commitments and working towards strengthened compliance and sustainability in the #mediterraneansea@UN_FAO_GFCM High-level Conference on #MedFish4Ever Initiatives
with @EU_MARE@vitcheva_eu
The #GFCM steers & coordinates #MedFish4Ever actions to strengthen governance and ensure the environmental, economic and social sustainability of Mediterranean fisheries.
But to effectively implement the MedFish4Ever Declaration, all stakeholders must join in.
Are you on board❓
The @MEDAC_ is attending the Advances on MedFish4Ever initiatives at the #MedFish4Ever Conference & the High-Level segment: accelerating commitments
In my meetings with #BlackSea Advisory Council and with Bulgarian academia, I emphasized the importance of a participatory approach and science-based tailor made solutions, with the support of all stakeholders.
It was an honor to have #Bulgarian fisheries agency and @EU_MARE visiting our Technical Unit, and an opportunity to sit with the team there and hear the important advances in the #BlackSea
The new @UN_FAO_GFCM 2030 Strategy will improve sustainability of fisheries in the Mediterranean & Black Sea.
The 🇪🇺 firmly supports its implementation for an inclusive future for our local communities, fishermen & women & to protect precious ecosystems.

Touched base with 🇬🇷 Minister for Rural Development @SpiliosL this evening.
Looking forward to see the upcoming national #CAP Strategic Plan by Greece which should benefit Nature and biodiversity whilst helping the agricultural sector thrive sustainably!
#EUGreenDeal 🇬🇷🌱🇪🇺
Η Ελλάδα και η Ευρώπη μάχονται μαζί ενάντια στην κλιματική κρίση, και είναι σύμμαχοι στην προστασία της φύσης και των οικοσυστημάτων μας.
It was a great pleasure to discuss with 🇬🇷 @PrimeministerGR.
We 🇪🇺 will be supporting Greece’s green transition every step of the way.
