France wants more EU money to stimulate economy
By EUobserver
French economy minister Bruno Le Maire has said Europe should follow America's example by pouring in more money to stimulate its economy after the pandemic. "Whatever we may think about it, the American stimulus plan shows ambition, and the return of US ambition is a good thing," he said. The US plan is worth $4.2 trillion (€3.6 trillion) while the EU's equivalent is worth €750 billion only.
