Frans Timmermans @TimmermansEU@respublicae.eu

Thank you @Murat_Kurum for a fruitful 2nd 🇪🇺-🇹🇷 High Level Climate Dialogue. We must boost adaptation, increase ambition to keep 1.5 alive, and strengthen our cooperation with each other and in the region. I commend Turkey’s commitment to update its NDC before #COP27.

Happy to have met and discussed with 🇹🇷 trade minister @mehmedmus. Being close partners for the green transformation of our economies matters now more than ever. Looking forward to Turkey's next steps to speed it up its transition to climate neutrality in 2053.

Interesting and inspiring meeting with Turkish climate and energy NGO’s who play an essential role in the green transition. Building on Turkey’s 2053 net-zero commitment, it is now important to focus on the policies to get there.

Good to sit down with several business representatives last night. Turkish business understands the need to transition and sees ample opportunity to compete, trade, and grow in a sustainable way 🌿

Great seeing my good friend @MevlutCavusoglu. We agreed on the importance of EU-Turkey relations and the relevance of cooperation, also in the Mediterranean, on climate action and an accelerated energy transition.

With minister Fouad (Environment) & minister Elsaid (Planning and Economic Development) we concentrated on climate finance and opportunities for green growth in 🇪🇬, especially the potential for sustainable development and emissions reductions in energy, transport, and industry.

With @MFAEgypt Sameh Shoukry, I discussed the road to @COP27P and EU support for a just transition in Africa. We will spare no efforts to deliver an ambitious #COP27 outcome, keep the 1.5 degree in reach and support adaptation in developing countries.

Met with Prime Minister Madbouly and other Egyptian ministers today in Cairo to discuss Mediterranean Green #Hydrogen Partnership and additional LNG-supplies. We agreed to move fast to expand 🇪🇺-🇪🇬 cooperation on climate action and the clean energy transition.

Despite progress at #COP26, global emissions are still trending in the wrong direction. Today’s @IPCC_CH report tells us we have to turn around, and quickly. To preserve our planet for future generations, radical action is necessary in all countries and economic sectors.
