Today, we are signing the first-ever Clean Trade and Investment Partnership. It’s a new generation of trade agreement – and a blueprint for future ones. We also step up cooperation on critical raw materials in ways that benefit us both ↓ teapaw.org/i/broadcasts/1ZkJzZnag…

Equal work should mean equal pay. The gender pay gap is real, with women in the EU earning on average 12% less per hour than men. Today's EU Equal Pay Day marks the date when working women in the EU, on average, stop earning for the year compared to men.

Congratulations to @alexanderdecroo on his appointment as @UNDP Administrator.   Your leadership comes at a crucial time for the UN system, as an ambitious reform is needed. I am confident the EU-UNDP partnership will keep growing stronger, including through Global Gateway.

The Global Gateway Forum showed the power of Europe’s offer. For two days, Brussels became the centre of international development cooperation. Together with presidents, prime ministers, heads of development banks, international organisations, leaders from private sector, we took our 🇪🇺 Global Gateway to the next level, turning investments into strategic partnerships that deliver real impact for our partners and for Europe. Here’s a quick look back at the two days.
