Africa-Press – South-Africa. <\/strong><\/span>As Africa and Europe prepare for the 7th European Union\u2013African Union Summit in Luanda, we stand shoulder to shoulder, drawing on the valuable lessons of our shared history, and with renewed joint ambitions firmly focused on the future.<\/p>\n

2025 marks 25 years of EU-AU partnership and 50 years of Angola\u2019s and many other African nations\u2019 independence\u2014milestones that remind us of how far we\u2019ve come and how much more we can achieve together. Europe and Africa are bound by together in an increasingly fast-changing world that demands solidarity, innovation, and a common purpose.<\/p>\n

The challenges we face today\u2014climate change, digital transformation, irregular migration, conflicts and insecurity \u2013 know no borders. The response to this multipolar world must be multipolar cooperation. And together, Africa and Europe can lead the way.<\/p>\n

Africa\u2019s greatest asset is its youth: dynamic, innovative, and determined. With Europe\u2019s experience, technology, and investment, we can work together to turn today\u2019s challenges into tomorrow\u2019s opportunities \u2013 creating green jobs, driving digital growth, and ensuring no one is left behind.<\/p>\n

Over the past 25 years, the AU\u2013EU partnership has grown deeper, broader, and more strategic. The EU is Africa\u2019s leading trading partner, investor, and collaborator in peace and development, because our prosperity and security are inextricably linked.<\/p>\n

Through the Global Gateway Africa\u2013Europe Investment Package worth \u20ac150 billion, our flagship projects are already transforming lives across the African continent, supporting initiatives ranging from vaccine production to digital infrastructure and sustainable agriculture. We are powering Africa\u2019s clean energy future. Our \u201cScaling Up Renewables for Africa\u201d campaign has already mobilized \u20ac15.5 billion to accelerate this transformation. These investments will help develop strategic clean industries from start to finish, create good jobs across the continent, and bring electricity to millions of people.<\/p>\n

We are also advancing regional integration and the African Continental Free Trade Area, supporting trade facilitation, digitalisation, and value-chain development across key sectors.<\/p>\n

In peace and security, Europe stands as Africa\u2019s closest ally, with over \u20ac1 billion provided through the European Peace Facility and 12 civilian and military missions working hand in hand with African counterparts to support African-led solutions.<\/p>\n

Our cooperation on mobility and education is equally vibrant: since 2022, more than 30,000 African and 18,000 European students and professionals have exchanged knowledge and experience through EU-supported programmes. Together, we are building new bridges.<\/p>\n

Our partnership is about shaping a fairer, greener, and more secure world based on shared values and mutual respect.<\/p>\n

As we look to the next 25 years, our message from Luanda is clear: Africa and Europe stand united in ambition, equal in partnership, and determined to unlock the full potential of our people, especially our youth.<\/p>\n
