Question for written answer  E-001927/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Thierry Mariani (PfE)

Today, Central Asia is at the heart of the geo-economic recomposition between Europe and Asia, and regional connectivity is an essential lever for stability, trade integration and energy resilience.

Against this backdrop, the President of the European Commission announced on 4 April 2025, at the inauguration of the Samarkand Climate Forum, that a further EUR 12 billion would be made available under the Global Gateway initiative.

Can the Commission give details of the new regional projects envisaged, particularly with regard to regional connectivity, transport infrastructure, energy and transnational digital networks between the countries of Central Asia?
