Brussels, May 27 (EFE).- The European Union and Japan agreed Thursday to increase production of Covid-19 vaccines to guarantee global access.
At a video conference summit, they also agreed to cooperate in the fight against climate change.
“Our first common priority is to defeat Covid-19 and ensure a sustainable and inclusive recovery,” European Council President Charles Michel, who represented the EU alongside European Commission President Ursula Von der Leyen, said after the meeting in front of Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga.
Brussels and Tokyo emphasized their support for the Covax initiative, a week before Japan hosts the next summit to raise funds for this initiative promoted by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Gavi Alliance, with the aim of ensuring access to vaccines for poor developing countries.
