Additionally, 1 billion Africans still lack access to clean cooking, emphasizing the urgent need to reshape our energy landscape for dignified lives and livelihoods.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also highlighted initiatives such as the Africa Green Industrialization Initiative and the Accelerated Partnership for Renewables in Africa, inviting Italy to participate in green investments.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfrica\u2019s abundant renewable resources are key to decarbonizing and diversifying global supply chains,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAdditionally, the continent\u2019s rich deposits of critical materials, essential for the development of modern technologies, present a unique opportunity for collaboration with Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ruto further urged Italy to actively participate in an upcoming Investment Forum co-hosted with IRENA, seeking new opportunities and collaborative efforts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe invite Italy to partner with us, including in the upcoming Investment Forum we will co-host with IRENA, where Italian companies and financial institutions can explore new investment opportunities and help us shape a policy and regulatory environment that works for all,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Addressing debt issues, the President requested Italy\u2019s support during the G7 Presidency and emphasized market access in light of the EU\u2019s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAfrican countries pay five times as much for our debt, driven by both real and perceived risk factors. We must accelerate reform measures to the Global Financial Architecture, including adjustments to debt treatment,\u201d Ruto said.<\/p>\n<p>Emphasizing Africa\u2019s abundant renewable resources, President Ruto stressed the necessity of sustained focus on renewables while acknowledging the role of gas.<\/p>\n<p>Ruto expressed confidence in a new era of mutually beneficial cooperation, predicting stronger ties and shared prosperity in the Italy-Africa relationship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Monday, President William Ruto addressed the Italy-Africa Summit, commending Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni\u2019s pragmatic approach to global challenges and expressing gratitude for Italy\u2019s Mattei Plan, particularly its emphasis on energy security for Africa and the Mediterranean nations.
