"WE HAVE 2 OBJECTIVES TO ONBOARD EVERYONE, i.e SMALL AND LARGE INDUSTRY AIRPLANE

USPA NEWS - The 10th Paris Air Forum was held on Friday June 16, 2023 at the Maison de la Mutualité (Paris), placed under the sign of a new era of air and space development, this new edition will allow understand the societal, technological and economic challenges driving the sector. It was a new unmissable event for the leaders of the world of aeronautics and aerospace. Among the CEOS, Thierry Breton, (Former French Minister of Economy & Finance) currently European Commissioner for Internal Market, participated in Paris Air Forum, over a keynote and conversation with Philippe Mabille, Editor of Chief, of La Tribune Journal. Amongst other prestigious speakers, Clement Beaune, French Minister of Transport, Augustin De Romanet, CEO of Airport of Paris Group, Annick Rigail, CEO of Air France, Catherine McGregor, CEO of Engie, Maria Filali, CEO, of GIMA, Rodolphe Saade, CEO CMA-CGM, Stephane Raison, CEO of HAROPA (ports of Paris, Rouen and Le Havre) participated in round tables. Thierry Breton, EU Internal Trade Commissioner.

THIERRY BRETON EU’s COMMISIONER AGREES TO WHAT PRES. MACRON SAID ABOUT CO2 OBEJCTIVE ZERO BY 2050 The European Commissioner, Thierry Breton, faithful to this Paris Air Forum meeting, made a very committed and engaging introductory remarks regarding decarbonization and then actively participated in a candid conversation with Philippe Mabille, in chief edition of La Tribune, Journal while promising less restrictive legislation in the future, to promote sovereignty and decarbonization. HE was greatly cheered and applauded by the audience. The Commissioner makes an introductory remark, before being questioned by Michel Caborige et Philippe Mabille, edition in chief of La Tribune, Journal. Thierry Breton, Commissioner of Internal Trade of EU: "I am very happy to find myself here among you, at the Paris Air Forum which has become an annual meeting, which I try to keep to your invitation, but I wanted to be obviously this year, because the subject of decarbonization in aviation is a key subject. And then the other reason is because we are in the transition phase when we enter the European continent, and the legitimate questions we are asking for total decarbonization. I support 100% what the President of the French Republic said, who stated that there are a certain number of legislative acts to put in motion in many sectors in an objective of zero Co2 in 2050, with the meeting points, -55% in 2035. The actions being already taken, I note that the visions are good, the execution is better!"

The Paris Air Forum took place this year at La Mutualite on June 16 under the theme of Spatial Sovereignty and components, ahead of the Paris Air Show, Le Bourget (June 17-22, 2023), the largest aeronautic show and space of the world, which will open its tracks and doors to professionals, during the week and to the general public at the weekend, under the theme "Sovereignty and decarbonation ".

"WE HAVE 2 OBJECTIVES TO ONBOARD EVERYONE, i.e SMALL & LARGE INDUSTRY AIRPLANE MODELS" THIERRY BRETON EXPLAINS We have two objectives, Thierry Breton EU’s Commissioner stated "We should enroll all models from small, medium to large tourist planes even, because the aviation industry is 1 Million jobs at the performance of 125 €Bn of turnover and in the EU, the most large continent leading actions in terms of engineering. HE adds that "We have created an alliance of all those who come and I will see Monday at the Paris Air Show with the President of the Republic and it will be decarbonization and Hydrogen. We are going to count on 1 year and put in place all the sector on the way to share these alliances. there is the medium term and to achieve it"

"Should we support entire sectors by financing this transition in green energy, even if you don't want to decarbonise? Yesterday I presented this subject to the college of the European Commission, but certain former ministers were hesitant about it.
However, concerning the taxonomy, it is better that aeronautics is part of it - and I fought for that - with "GREEN Labels, in gigantic amounts with enormous amounts it will be necessary to take this into account in the transition, and and this transition, we will tend towards, 25% less, and by using sustainable fuels, to 6% in 2030, and to embark all the actors," he justifies. Thierry Breton completes his remarks "this morning the President of the Republic Macron announced a plan for this not very green transition with engines still kerozene, fuel and even hydrogen, and we must support this approach, even if the value chains are asking here in France, like most Member States, and we must ensure that all those who wish can do so because it is an element of freedom."

Annick Rigail, the CEO of Air France/KLM Group, explains that "Customer behavior changes very quickly in the disc, for example during a Paris-Marseille trip, we adjust to 7 frequencies instead of 20 frequencies, for example" She questions " Is the consumer ready to pay? take Turkish airlines with a zero surcharge of zero euros." does she/.

Catherine Macgregor, CEO Engie: "I am very motivated to bring my stone to the building, and to provide solutions for air and also maritime transit. " she said :  "Iit will take a massive deployment for decarbonization, we will have 65% of renewable energy production in 2030, and the message is that we will invest massively in low carbon energies and this will help in maritime and air transport. "

"AM AWARE THAT OUR KIDS ARE ASKING FOR LESS AIR TRAVEL YET WE SHOULD NOT NEGLECT CLIMATE CHANGE” AUGUSTIN DE ROMANET SAID, Augustin de Romanet, CEO ADP group stated: "I am aware that our children are asking for less air travel, but nevertheless, it is not because there are spoiled children that we should neglect climate change and climate change that requires us to adopt measures that we share”. "The hegemony of reducing traffic, on the rest of the planet, in emerging countries, will only affect a few % of air transport by plane, but there are others who want first feed, stabilize then the need is to consider this, but not by plane where the train is not favoured. He acknowledged. He highlghted "In France we are very favored with a flat country and for example certain countries like India, land ownership is totally fragmented, and we cannot pass TGV and therefore citizens are obliged to use plane to cover great distances. On the other hand, we recall decarbonization in the name of pollution on the basis of which banks are prohibited from accessing gas and oil for economic growth. This dialectic is the same in other areas...". He explains. Augustin De Romanet, continues in an optimistic way by making projections on India, idniuqnat that it is an Arab market to be conquered yet " Potentially the growth is 7%, but in 30 years the GDP will only be $200 per year, and in 10 years the GDP will be $4,000/capita/year, and then in 20 years the Indians will reach a GDP of $16,000/inhabitant/year and the catch-up will be considerable "...

Maria Filali, CEO of (GIMAS) Industrial Association of Moroccan Aerospace Companies "Decarbonized Aeromobility in Africa and with the airport and hydrogen and green energy planes and even on raw materials, this is what will bring flows to Africa and this will accentuate the social and vital sector so that the Africa is part of this progress. Data and information and teleconsultations, and all these technologies will not pass without Africa, and being part of the innovation, we have our place in the ecosystem, because we are essential and we "We also have a lot to contribute and we must be part of it, but not through this dialectic of sovereign. It is not constructive and this narrative is not positive enough". She explains. Maria Filali continues in a constructive and positive way "In our forum we felt exhausting without distinguishing between the West and the rest of the world, we wander from an areomobile world because it will be a factor of externality and it is a sector generous and united, which is the most beautiful face of globalization"

Philippe Mabille, by way of conclusion, gives an appointment in an au, to his high level guests while recalling that in 2022, he counted among the guests, Patrick Pouyannet, CEO of Total Energies, on green energy, and this year, we have Catherine McGregor, maybe next year she will be there, and we will have all three with Luc Raymond.../
