I last spoke with the UK Chancellor, Rishi Sunak, by phone on 25th September. I was glad to have this opportunity to continue our bilateral engagement, following on from previous calls in May and in the Spring of this year. We had a good discussion on our respective actions in addressing the economic challenges of Covid-19. We also noted the ongoing Brexit discussions, including the importance of the full implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement.
I look forward to continuing my bilateral engagement with Chancellor Sunak in the near future and working together to address the shared economic challenges presented by Brexit and the Covid-19 pandemic.
