The Ministry of Foreign Affairs also works closely with the other ministries to help shape the Europe of the future and ensure that the Netherlands speaks with one voice in the European Union.

Locations

Egypt

Egypt has undertaken one of its most ambitious infrastructure investment programs in history, with hundreds of billions of dollars allocated to transport networks, new urban developments, energy and water systems, and industrial zones that underpin economic diversification and regional integration. These investments - including extensive road and rail expansion, smart city initiatives, and major renewable and utility projects - have enhanced Egypt’s position as a logistics and production hub while supporting macroeconomic stability and private sector growth. Public service delivery indices rank the country highly in infrastructure quality among Africa’s economies, though reforms continue to improve the regulatory climate and attract foreign investment.

Jordan

Jordan’s infrastructure development emphasises water security, renewable energy and transport improvements amid limited domestic resources and regional pressures. Investments, often supported by multilateral partners, seek to enhance grid stability, expand clean energy capacity and modernise logistics to stimulate jobs and private investment. Government reform programmes aim to unlock private sector-led growth, improve fiscal sustainability and build socio-economic resilience. Key constraints include water scarcity, fiscal pressures and the need for continued improvements in regulatory and investment governance to attract capital.
