🗨️ “The @EU_Commission helps underperforming countries catch up, but its support is not a miracle cure and can only act as a catalyst. To break the vicious circle, the Member States must fully play their part.”

However, we find that a real shift largely depends on national governments.

The challenges that the pandemic posed to this right have not been scrutinised enough by the @EU_Commission
