This week, we marked 40 years since Spain joined the European Union, a period of shared prosperity and social progress fuelled by great infrastructures, innovative projects and support to SMEs financed by the European Investment Bank Group.
We signed new operations for Spanish small companies and mid-caps in security and defence, and graphite production for batteries.
I had very good exchanges with Greece’s Minister for Rural Development and Food and Spain’s Vice-President and Minister for the Ecological Transition on support to agriculture and green finance.
We also announced new financing to decarbonise dairy production, upgrade water services, improve urban infrastructure and expand wind energy.
At the Ukraine Recovery Conference in Gdańsk, we announced over 470 million euros in new financing. And in Brussels, we signed new support for the Trans-Caspian Corridor, strengthening Europe's strategic ties with Central Asia, also with the opening of a new regional office in Tashkent.
