The president of the world’s second largest multilateral development bank has lauded progress made during the pivotal UN financing for sustainable development conference in Sevilla, saying the commitment by countries to work together is “positive, encouraging – and we need to do better.”
Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) chief Jin Liqun told Matt Wells who’s in Sevilla for UN News that amid “formidable” global challenges, no one country or institution can stay on the path to sustainability on their own.
He said there was no reason to be intimidated by uncertainties roiling the global economy and partnering with institutions and the private sector is “crucially important”.
