I had a productive meeting with Bundesentwicklungsministerium’s Christine Toetzke. We discussed IFC’s agenda, our strong partnership, and areas for cooperation across Europe (specially #Ukraine ) and LAC. #WBGMeetings

Good discussion to increase our partnership with Montenegro.
PPPs can play a transformational role in modernizing the country’s infrastructure. IFC can also help #Montenegro put its tourism industry on a sustainable path.
