 The United Nations says Russia is using rape and sexual violence as part of its military strategy in Ukraine. This is not only a war on Ukraine. It is also a war on human rights, and it is a war on women's rights. The war the number of women serving in the military has more than doubled. And it's not just about women in the Army. Students of Ukrainian women are standing up for their children's future in freedom. The thing we did for Ukraine. We did it together. But Putin's singing failed. We replaced the Russian gas, lacking, with more importation coming from reliable suppliers. Canada played an important role. By increasing its production of GNL. Meanwhile, we have improved our energy efficiency by reducing our consumption by 20%. But above all, we have massively invested in renewable energies. Renewable energies are clean. They can be produced on site, and they provide us with independence. But don't stop there. As the future of energy is renewable energies, our partnership with Canada is crucial to accelerate the transition towards clean energy. Canada and Europe are world leaders for climate action. We have made our climate goals laws. We have set a price for carbon. And we have proved that we can develop the economy and reduce emissions. The world is facing challenges and we need strong, principled and responsible leadership from people of all backgrounds. So thank you Ursula, for not just being a strong example of that leadership, but also for putting forward policies, decisions and solutions as a friend. The partnership between Canada and the EU is stronger than ever. It is built on our shared belief in gender equality, in human rights, in international law, in a strong and growing middle class and in growth that creates opportunities for everyone. Fundamentally, it is built on a belief in strong and lasting democratic institutions like the one we are in today.
