While the Global Gateway aims to align the EU’s development cooperation with its geostrategic priorities, it has insufficiently leveraged the potential and resources of multilateral and regional development banks.
Structured partnership could help deliver Global Gateway 2.0 at scale and reinforce the EU global competitiveness in a mutually beneficial manner for its partner countries and regions.
