“It’s been a pleasure to welcome Nathalie Loiseau [French Minister of State for European Affairs], and Brune Poirson [Minister of State attached to the Minister for the Ecological and Inclusive Transition]. We had an open and productive discussion about how we at EFSA can support in a collaborative way EU Member State efforts in strengthening the system and addressing citizens’ concerns.”
The ministers were accompanied by Cyrille Rogeau, French General Consul of Milan; members of the French Parliament Sabine Thillaye, Pieyre-Alexandre Anglade and Elisabeth Toutut-Picard.
