Commission VP: The Recovery Fund can be a permanent tool

The Vice President of the European Commission, Margaritis Schinas, has left open the possibility that the Recovery Fund will be a permanent financial tool of the European Union, if this proves effective, intervening in the Mega channel show “Big Picture”.

The Deputy Minister of Finance, Theodoros Skylakakis, was being hosted on the show at the time.

“If the fund achieves the goals for which it was designed, to serve the twin transition to a green and digital economy, to build skills for human resources, to help small and medium-sized enterprises, then I think there will be more political support for an argument that now we need it permanently. That is why the process of implementing the recovery plan is crucial for the future as well “, Mr. Schinas underlined.
