Over the next five years, he will work hard and with determination with his team and will collaborate with his colleagues for a better Europe, European Commissioner for Fisheries and Oceans, Costas Kadis, told the Cyprus News Agency (CNA) after the plenary session of the European Parliament (EP) approved the College of Commissioners, on Wednesday in Strasbourg.

“Today’s approval of the European Commission 2024-2029 by the European Parliament constitutes an important milestone in the effort to address the major challenges facing the European Union,” notes Kadis, adding that “in this context, I take on the duties of the European Commissioner for Fisheries and Oceans with great pleasure and honour.”

Costas Kadis says that over the next five years he will work with his colleagues “hard and with determination” for the support and prosperity of Europe’s coastal communities and fishermen, as well as in order to protect and sustainably manage the oceans at European and global level.

“As a member of the College of Commissioners, I will work closely with my colleagues for a better Europe, for the prosperity and progress of European citizens,” Kadis concludes.
