Rutte calls for EU pension and labour reforms
By EUobserver
Dutch prime minister Mark Rutte, speaking at the World Economic Forum on Wednesday, called on other EU members to "really start" reforming their pension, housing, and labour markets. His remarks came days after the EU Commission admonished the Netherlands for its own lack of economic reform in the those same areas. "There will open up huge possibilities for growth, which will make us stronger," Rutte said.
