Deputy Foreign Minister Sheilla Chikomo praised this progress ahead of an upcoming business forum.

EU Ambassador Jobst von Kirchmann wants European firms to partner with local businesses. Both sides show interest in agriculture, mining, and clean energy projects.
The EU calls its relationship with Zimbabwe one based on respect. They share goals for growth that help everyone. Europe remains open to fair trade with Zimbabwe. Their partnership aims for a better future through business connections. The EU Global Gateway program supports this work through sustainable investments.
