On October 28, 2026, a high-level event was held in Yerevan as part of the 17th Conference of the Parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD COP17), devoted to the topic "Nature Restoration: From Commitments to Action." European Commission Commissioner Rosvall delivered remarks at the summit.
In her address to summit participants, she noted that the natural world is the foundation of economic security, as well as food and energy stability for states. According to her, the preservation and restoration of ecosystems is not only an environmental but also a strategic task directly linked to the well-being of citizens and the resilience of economies.
The Commissioner emphasized the need to move from declarations and international commitments to concrete practical steps for biodiversity restoration. She pointed to the importance of coordinating efforts among the parties to the convention to achieve the set goals in nature protection.
The event was part of the COP17 program—the latest conference of the parties to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, where the international community discusses measures to preserve ecosystems, combat biodiversity loss, and implement previously adopted global framework agreements in this sphere. Representatives of the European Union traditionally emphasize at such forums the importance of practical implementation of environmental commitments undertaken by countries at previous conferences.
