The global number of people without electricity has halved since 2000, but it has increased in Sub-Saharan Africa—

Most people in the world would think very little before flicking on the lights, charging a mobile phone or turning on a laptop to read this.

But that’s a very different reality from the almost 700 million people in the world who have no access to electricity. While this number is large, it has halved this century, falling from 1.35 billion to 675 million. You can see this in the chart.

However, this progress has been far from even. The number has fallen across all regions except Sub-Saharan Africa, where it has increased.

That doesn’t mean no progress has been made: the share of people in Sub-Saharan Africa with electricity has doubled, rising from 26% to 53%. But population growth has outpaced this expansion, meaning the number of people without electricity has still risen.

I am grateful to the President of the European Commission and the President of the European Council – Ursula @vonderLeyen and António Costa @eucopresident – that you have come to Ukraine on this day – 4 years since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion. Europe has stood with us throughout these difficult years, and our people trust Europe. They know we are not alone. In many ways all of this is thanks to your personal efforts, your work and friendship – thank you.

I thank all our European friends and partners – everyone in the European Union – who stands on the right side of history and helps Ukraine. And it’s vital that we have started working on the details of a key geopolitical security guarantee for Ukraine and for all of Europe – a clear date for Ukraine’s accession to the EU. The year 2027 is important and doable, so that Putin cannot block our membership for decades.

We choose partnership and cooperation.

We choose our businesses.

We choose our people.

[EU Council @EUCouncil]

The EU and Mercosur have signed 2 landmark deals:
🔹the EU-Mercosur partnership agreement
🔹an interim trade agreement

They will strengthen political dialogue and economic cooperation and, once in force, create the world's largest free-trade area.

The rising number of casualties in Iran is horrifying. I unequivocally condemn the excessive use of force and continued restriction of freedom.

The European Union has already listed the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps in its entirety under its human rights sanctions regime.

In close cooperation with HRVP @kajakallas, further sanctions on those responsible for the repression will be swiftly proposed.

We stand with the people of Iran who are bravely marching for their liberty.
