Good to have discussed Mexico’s’s green transition and opportunities to boost 🇪🇺🤝🇲🇽 cooperation ahead of #COP28 with ministers @M_Ebrard, @Mary_Luisa_AG, and Raquel Buenrostro. Tackling the climate crisis is a matter of social justice: it goes hand in hand with fighting poverty.

EU and Colombia are natural partners in the fight against the climate and #biodiversity crises.

Colombia’s vision for social, climate and economic justice centred around total peace is an inspiring example for the wider region.

Exclusion, hate, and antisemitism have no place in society. They can never take over again.

But as time passes, new generations risk losing sight of humanity's dark past.

That's why #WeRemember: to learn, and to live brighter, more inclusive lives.

A true pleasure to meet minister @MarinaSilva to discuss #COP28 and hear 🇧🇷’s plans to stop #deforestation.

The Amazon is an invaluable ecosystem. First for Brazilians, and for the world. I look forward to working together on the 🇪🇺’s support Brazil’s zero deforestation target.

Great to speak with vice-president @GeraldoAlckmin. Brazil is back on the international stage.

RT @euintheuae: 🇪🇺 Executive VP @TimmermansEU paid a visit to Jubail Mangrove Park where he planted a tree in support of the UAE’s efforts to plant 100 million mangroves by 2030.

Mangroves are a great ally in fighting the impact of #climatechange. Preserving nature is key to protect our 🌍.

For Ukraine’s #GreenReconstruction @OlKubrakov and I discussed how to build back better and respond to 🇺🇦’s immediate needs.

The war has also done huge harm to the environment. I assured @RuslanStrilets of the 🇪🇺’s support to assess the damage and hold the culprits accountable.
