Asunción, Agencia IP.- Myriam Ferrán, Director for International Partnerships of the European Union, stated that the international context, political challenges, and ongoing wars are dramatic events that underscore the need for even closer cooperation between the EU and Paraguay.

«That is why we have decided to organize this investment forum together, because we see not only a political cooperation, which is fundamental, but also economic cooperation that allows us to address the major challenges we are facing jointly,» Ferrán said on Tuesday during the opening of the 2025 Investment Forum, held at the Central Bank of Paraguay’s Institute.

She highlighted climate change, the digital transition, the reach of new technologies, and the social context as key areas where concrete cooperation projects can be developed to impact communities positively.

To this end, the European Union has been working on the Global Gateway strategy since 2021. This strategy is based on common goals and joint work with authorities and civil society. In Paraguay’s case, the strategy aims to identify the most relevant issues requiring special attention to focus efforts effectively.
