Costa brings home 15.3 billion euros from EU Covid-19 Recovery Fund following weekend of tough talks
"I think the agreement reached is a good agreement, it was at the limit of what would make this fund sufficiently robust fund to respond to this first phase of the crisis. And, in the combination of loans and grants, I think we will be left with a fund that will have around 700 billion euros. It is in any case a historic step to set up a fund of this nature based on the issuance of debt by the Commission", said António Costa.
