Entretien très productif avec La Chef du Gouvernement, qui m’a présenté les ambitions du Plan de Développement 2026-2030 pour la Tunisie.
@EBRD accroît ses investissements dans le pays, en faveur du secteur privé et de projets structurants pour l’économie.
Volonté partagée de contribuer à une économie plus efficace, plus dynamique, plus résiliente, réduisant les disparités et stimulant l’initiative privée.
I welcome the EU’s decision overnight to offer a €90 billion loan to Ukraine.
This is an effective expression of Europe’s support for the country.
Support for Ukraine takes many forms. @EBRD has deployed €8.5 billion to fund its real economy and private sector since 2022.
A landmark moment for the @EBRD: we have launched our first investment in sub-Saharan Africa with a €30 million sovereign loan in Benin to expand reliable electricity access in the Mono, Couffo and Borgou regions.

Many of us MDB heads were invited by King Charles III this week to discuss how we can mobilise more private capital for the green transition.
We reported on how we're responding to rising demand for areas such as clean energy, green infrastructure, climate resilience and Nature.
This has been the year in which we have brought our distinctive business model to Sub-Saharan Africa. Here at the EU-AU summit in Luanda I have been able to meet many @EBRD shareholders, old and new.

This is the second day of my latest trip to #Ukraine. Last night Russia launched one of its deadliest attacks on the country's western regions, killing many people and injuring even more, using 48 missiles and over 470 drones, @ZelenskyyUa has reported.
Ensuring the best corporate governance standards across the energy sector, as well as the energy regulator's independence, will also be essential for the overall economic viability and strength of Ukraine's energy systems.
Congratulations to Joel Mokyr, Philippe Aghion and Peter Howitt on winning the 2025 Nobel Prize in Economic Sciences!
Philippe's thinking is part of @EBRD's DNA; his work as our Deputy Chief Economist in the 1990s shaped our approach to transition and growth.
I strongly condemn Russia's strikes which have brought more death & destruction to Kyiv. They also damaged @EBRD's office.
We remain firmly committed to helping our friends & partners in #Ukraine️. That support will not waver.
Our priority now is our staff's safety & well-being.
I welcome the Ukraine Parliament vote to restore the independence of the country’s anti-corruption functions. As I said when I met civil society organisations this week, Ukraine’s struggles for independence, sovereignty and justice don’t compete with but reinforce each other. 1/2
In our meeting I heard powerful arguments for further judicial reform. Solid institutions and civil society will together constitute the basis for economic recovery and Ukraine’s European future. Read more here: linkedin.com/posts/odile-re… 2/2
The @EBRD echoes concerns expressed by the EU, G7 Ambassadors and international partners on developments around NABU and SAPO in Ukraine. The independence of anti-corruption entities is a key pillar of the Rule of Law. We will remain engaged with the authorities on this issue.
It was a pleasure to meet @Denys_Shmyhal again.
@EBRD works closely and fruitfully with Ukraine's government as well as its private sector. We're looking forward to announcing an expansion of our cooperation across a variety of sectors at #URC2025 in Rome next week.
During a visit to Spain, we met with the President of the EBRD @OdileRenaud. I thanked the EBRD for the nearly €7bn of investment it is providing to the Ukrainian economy, including key infrastructure projects. The EBRD is actively cooperating with Ukrainian state-owned
