President Paul Kagame Friday held what he described as a "good conversation" with the European Union (EU) Commissioner for International Partnerships, Jutta Urpilainen.

"Had a very productive conversation with EU Commissioner for International Partnerships @JuttaUrpilainen, in the context of the strong collaboration between the EU and Rwanda," Kagame said in a tweet.

The commitment from the EU is part of the European Union's Team Europe programme to support partner countries around the world with €20 billion to fight the coronavirus.

"Global cooperation is the only way out of this #coronavirus pandemic, #TeamEurope stands by its partners," Urpilainen said in a tweet, thanking President Kagame for the "constructive discussion."
