The national recovery and resilience plan has received positive feedback in Brussels, Prime Minister Eduard Heger said on Tuesday following his first in-person meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and European Council President Charles Michel since he took office on 1 April.
“We have received positive feedback in terms of timing and process. We have been discussing the priorities we have set for a long time and there has been no problem,” Heger told the media, adding that his government will be able to submit its recovery plan by the end of April.
