EU countries could launch the bloc’s COVID-19 recovery plan this month, after all 27 members approve the scheme, the European Council announced on Monday.
“The European Union is now able to obtain the necessary funding for the European social and economic recovery,” said Portuguese Prime Minister Antonio Costa, who chairs the council.
The European Commission is to go to the capital markets and borrow the money to finance the plan in the name of the EU members.
The EU’s landmark 750 billion euro (US$917 billion) recovery plan, known as Next Generation EU, was drawn up in July last year.
