EIB Vice President Gelsomina Vigliotti underlined the importance of sustaining priority investment, stating, “In the face of significant challenges, it is crucial that we ensure continuous support for investment in the southern Mediterranean. By fostering business growth and addressing climate and energy concerns, we can drive sustainable development and create a prosperous future for the region.”
