The EU = European Union has agreed to secure funds for reconstruction, saying that the economy is seriously affected by the spread of the new coronavirus. However, the opinions were not gathered around the concrete scale and method, and the conclusion was carried over.
In the EU, most of the member countries have taken measures such as going out restrictions, and the economy has been seriously hit while the spread of infection is prolonged.
In response, member countries held a video-phone summit to discuss economic support measures on the 23rd. At the meeting, they agreed to lend to member countries and to provide 540 billion euros for corporations, about 63 trillion yen in Japanese yen, and to secure funds for economic recovery.
However, the conclusions were postponed due to lack of consensus on the specific scale of recovery funds and methods for securing them.
For this reason, the European Commission, which is the executive body of the EU, is planning to compile and reconside the concrete plan by the beginning of next month, but the EU has so far revealed the gap between the countries due to the economic measures for the new coronavirus. However, the focus will be on finding breakthroughs in future discussions and eliminating concerns over the future of the economy.
