ABUJA, NIGERIA, June 23, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- President Julius Maada Bio of Sierra Leone has officially assumed the Chairmanship of the Authority of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), marking a historic milestone as the first Sierra Leonean Head of State to hold this esteemed position.

The announcement was received with national pride and regional optimism, signaling a renewed commitment to unity, peace, security, and sustainable development across West Africa.

President Bio enters the role with a clear and ambitious vision. He emphasized his commitment to restoring constitutional order and deepening democracy, revitalizing regional security cooperation, unlocking the potential of economic integration, and reinforcing institutional credibility.

In his acceptance remarks, President Bio extended his appreciation to his predecessor, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of Nigeria, for his steadfast leadership and unwavering commitment to regional dialogue and peace-building. He also expressed gratitude to his fellow Heads of State for the confidence placed in him and in the people of Sierra Leone.

“Thank you for placing your trust in me and in the Republic of Sierra Leone,” President Bio said. “I accept this responsibility with full awareness of the magnitude of the task ahead and the complexity of the moment.”

President Bio’s appointment is widely viewed as a beacon of hope for a region in search of stability, resilience, and unity. As Sierra Leone assumes this historic leadership role, the country reaffirms its dedication to working hand-in-hand with fellow nations to shape a stronger, more integrated West Africa.

Bezpieczeństwo stało się w UE tematem numer jeden. Miała w tym udział polska prezydencja

Ostatnie dni czerwca to dobra okazja do podsumowania pół roku prezydencji Polski w Radzie UE. Z tej okazji w Łodzi odbył się Wielki Piknik Europejski w Łodzi, w trakcie którego również wiceprzewodnicząca Parlamentu Europejskiego podsumowała ten okres: w ciągu ostatnich sześciu miesięcy Polska była silnym i odważnym przywódcą i również nam dała siłę i odwagę, aby kroczyć naprzód w tych bardzo trudnych czasach. Zdaniem europosła Dariusza Jońskiego Polsce udało się odbudować swoją pozycję na arenie międzynarodowej.

Nie brakuje przeciwników zwiększenia wydatków na obronność do 5 proc. Obawiają się, że paradoksalnie zagrozi to bezpieczeństwu Europy

W Hadze rusza szczyt NATO. Jednym z ważniejszych punktów ma być podwyższenie wydatków państw sojuszniczych na zbrojenia i obronność do 5 proc. PKB. Jeśli wniosek zostanie zatwierdzony, państwa członkowskie przeznaczą łącznie na ten cel ponad 500 mld euro więcej rocznie. – Zwiększając wydatki na broń, nie tworzy się warunków do pokoju. Dlatego jesteśmy temu zdecydowanie przeciwni – podkreśla włoski europoseł Pasquale Tridico z Ruchu Pięciu Gwiazd (M5S).

Ochrona środowiska

Gospodarowanie odpadami nieodłącznym elementem strategii firm. Brak jasnych przepisów utrudnia ich działania

Odpowiedzialne gospodarowanie odpadami stanowi integralną część biznesu, a działania w tym obszarze coraz częściej wchodzą w skład strategii ESG. Opóźniające się wdrożenie systemu rozszerzonej odpowiedzialności producenta (ROP) zgodnego z wymogami Unii Europejskiej stawia jednak przed polskimi przedsiębiorstwami wiele wyzwań.
