PM Mitsotakis: 'More good jobs, fewer inequalities should define upcoming recovery'
More good jobs and fewer inequalities should define economic recovery after the pandemic, said Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis in statements at the start of the second day of the informal European Union Summit in Portugal, on Saturday.
"Europe should enter a swift recovery mode if social provisions are expected to come into fruition," he noted, "by putting into good use all available financial tools."
The Greek premier said he was referring specifically to the National Recovery & Resilience Plan "Greece 2.0", which he estimated would be approved by European institutions by the end of June.
Post-pandemic recovery, therefore, must be characterized by better working conditions overall, he stressed, with the tackling of all labor inequalities being a top priority.
To this effect, Greece will play a leading role at national and European level, he underlined.
