The Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) has announced that it will allocate 24,000 million dollars for climate and green financing over the next four years. The resources will be allocated to items for the protection and restoration of ecosystems and their biodiversity, as well as the reduction of pollution.

The multilateral organization has indicated that all its loans and projects will be fully aligned with the Paris climate agreement by 2023, a measure that will help the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean to combat climate change and at the same time, advance in the steps to help the most vulnerable populations with a sustainable recovery for all.

The announcement comes as world leaders are meeting at COP26, the UN’s annual conference on climate change, to seek ways to slow global warming and achieve the climate goals agreed at a previous summit in Paris.

“We know that by prioritizing smart investments today, the cornerstone of our global fight against climate change can mutually reinforce our pandemic recovery efforts and we can accelerate our response,” said IDB President Mauricio Claver-Carone.

Between 2015 and 2020, the agency invested in 28 projects with nature-based solution components, for a total of $ 815 million. These projects leveraged an additional $ 437 million in partner funding, for a total of approximately $ 1.25 billion.

The announcement adds to the IDB’s efforts to integrate climate considerations and financing into the agendas and policies of its borrowing member countries.

The suspension, for five years, of all retaliation tariffs was mutually agreed by the US aircraft manufacturers Boeing and the European company Airbus. The news was released within the framework of the face-to-face summit between the European Union and the United States, which was held this Tuesday in Brussels.

The commercial dispute that has kept the two giants of world aviation at odds for 17 years comes to an end with this decision. Both parties agreed to suspend the tariffs with the idea of ​​not reestablishing these sanctions.

The governments of the United States have traditionally preferred to deal separately with each of the member countries of the European Union. However, in his visit to Brussels Joe Biden was received by the European authorities, the president of the Commission, Ursula von der Leyen and the president of the Council, Charles Michel.

Both, the EU and the United States, are committed to working together to address China’s economic and technological expansion in the aeronautical sector. According to the joint statement, published after the meeting, both partners agree to settle, before the end of the year, their differences on the tariffs that Trump imposed on European steel and aluminum.

In the statement, the authorities are also responsible for ensuring “the viability of our steel and aluminum industries and dealing with excess capacity.” As well as the convergence of their views on the need for a major reform of the World Trade Organization (WTO) and a more modernized multilateral trading system, adapting it to the needs and difficulties posed by the digitization of economies.

In the statement, they also refer to the creation of the Trade and Technology Council, which will aim to be a body for frequent and systematic political consultations that allows technological advances for a greater convergence between the two economies.

The Deputy Prime Minister of the Czech Republic, Jan Hamacek, said that the Government offers the country as a place to host the first summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and his US counterpart, Joe Biden, given the uncertainty about the possible meeting.

Hamacek, also acting foreign minister, indicated on his Twitter account that he has asked the ambassadors in both countries to propose Prague as a place for “the possible venue” of the summit.

“I was responding to the announcement of President Biden, who requested a meeting in a third state. I have instructed our ambassadors to offer Prague in the wake of Barack Obama’s summit with Dimitri Medvedev,” he said.

Shortly before, the Kremlin had indicated that there was the possibility that both presidents would meet in a European country, as had been pointed out by the Russian government spokesman, Dimitri Peskov.

“Without a doubt, working on these new proposals, such as a bilateral meeting in one of the European countries, is possible only taking into account the analysis of the real situation and real additional measures,” he said.

Putin and Biden held a telephone conversation on Tuesday in which the US president reiterated his willingness to build “stable relations” with Russia and proposed a summit in a third country. On the same day, the Austrian government also offered to host the summit, something that Finland had previously done.
