Bruno Le Maire does not want to hear about failure within the Eurogroup, while discussions around an economic response to the coronavirus crisis on Tuesday were unsuccessful. The Minister of Economy and Finance described as "unthinkable" a failure to find a collective and "ambitious" response, while hoping that the countries of the euro area find an agreement on Thursday.

“Our collective responsibility now is to reach an agreement within 24 hours. Failure is unthinkable, "he said after the Council of Ministers and after the failure of a" long and difficult "meeting of the Eurogroup which lasted all night long, without pointing responsible.
