Our new #EBRDrep revises growth across our regions this year down to 2.8%. The report, titled “Along the adjustment path”, cites a slowdown in economic activity and the impact of the conflicts in Gaza and Lebanon as factors driving the trend. https://t.co/Jta6kFtE8Z

I'm back in Kyiv and was very pleased to see @Denys_Shmyhal today and commit to mobilising €300 million of additional funding to boost #Ukraine’s energy security, this in response to Russia's latest attacks on its infrastructure.
