On Friday, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu met with the President of the Swiss Confederation, Alain Berset.
Daily News 24 reports that Tinubu’s meeting with Berset takes place on the sidelines of a summit on a new financing pact in Paris, France.
Tinubu recently joined other world leaders in Paris, France, to reach an agreement on redesigning the global financial architecture.
The redesign is expected to favour poverty reduction, debt restructuring or cancellation, and increased attention to vulnerable countries affected by climate change and Covid-19.
Tinubu arrived in Paris on Tuesday for the two-day Summit, his first trip abroad as President.
The summit is a two-day event held at Paris’ Palais Brongniart.
In a related development, Tinubu was in Paris for the signing of the Global Finance Pact at the Palais Broignart.
In welcoming guests to the two-day summit, French President Emmanuel Macron stated that the summit would focus on developing a new financial order that will scale up finances and support developing countries for energy transition and poverty reduction while respecting each nation’s sovereignty.
