Spoke with Mark Carney to congratulate him on his election. It was the perfect opportunity to reaffirm the strength of the 🇪🇺🇨🇦 bond and the many opportunities that lie ahead. We discussed how to build on the success of CETA and agreed to explore deeper cooperation on defence

The EU remains actively engaged. I spoke again with 🇺🇸 Secretary Howard Lutnick. We'll be intensifying our engagement at expert level, while I stay in close touch with him and United States Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. Vital for me to stay in sync with our Member States every step of the way.

🤝 Our negotiations for an 🇪🇺🇦🇪 FTA officially launched. Goods trade already at € 56B. Services at € 39B. Imagine what a commercially meaningful FTA can do. Going at full speed to unlock tremendous opportunities for EU and Emirati businesses alike. 📝 europa.eu/!DTxDXw

The EU-Mercosur agreement is a game-changer for our economies. But beyond that, it sends a powerful message to the world: trade should be used to build bridges and prosperity—not walls and poverty.

Had a focused and in-depth discussion with 🇨🇳 Minister Wang Wentao on a broad range of pressing bilateral issues. We're working hard, with experts on both sides, to drive progress ahead of the July EU-China summit.

With Minister Parks Tau: Discussed a prospective 🇪🇺🇿🇦 CTIP - the 1st of its kind - and how we can support South Africa's development through a genuine partnership. Emphasis on project-driven cooperation. Next: the G20 Ministerial in autumn aiming for tangible results by end-2025.

The EU is committed to rules-based trade, but we know the status quo is not enough. The G7 Trade Ministerial offers a valuable platform to shape change and drive cooperation. A good meeting on the sidelines of the OECD ➡️ Better Policies for Better Lives Ministerial.

It was a real pleasure meeting Minister Airlangga Hartarto as we push ahead with our joint efforts towards an 🇪🇺🇮🇩 trade and investment agreement. It offers truly transformative potential for our economic operators and we're making strong progress. I'm keen to maintain this momentum.

🇪🇺🇮🇳 A valuable meeting with Dr. S. Jaishankar, covering our efforts to elevate the EU-India partnership to the next level - through a commercially meaningful trade agreement. We keep our strategic lenses firmly in place, and I'm looking forward to seeing Piyush Goyal soon.

Had a good call with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala. Our shared goal is clear: a meaningful WTO reform to address today's challenges, like non-market policies, head on. The EU's engaging with global partners to make it happen and strengthen the rules-based trading system. 👉 europa.eu/!gBy66D

Pleased to be in Ankara with Minister Prof. Dr. Ömer Bolat for the 2nd 🇪🇺🇹🇷 High-Level Dialogue on Trade. We're making meaningful progress towards removing trade barriers. The EU remains Türkiye's largest trade and investment partner - and we're committed to strengthening that bond.
