Résumé 'This is Europe' – an initiative proposed by the President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola – consists of a
series of debates with EU Heads of State or Government to discuss their visions for the future of the European Union.
Following an earlier speech to the Parliament in this context by the Estonian Prime Minister, Kaja Kallas, on 3 May
2022, the Italian Prime Minister, Mario Draghi, was the first EU leader to address the Parliament after the latter's
Conference of Presidents had endorsed the initiative on 28 April. Mr Draghi suggested numerous initiatives to
strengthen the European Union, notably a conference to rationalise and optimise EU investment in military spending.
He also expressed his support for abolishing the principle of unanimity in the Council for decision-making on foreign
policy, and for Treaty changes, to achieve what he called 'pragmatic and ideal federalism'.

Résumé Before the pandemic, the Greek economy was just getting back onto a positive path, following reforms implemented
under the macroeconomic adjustment programmes. Action to address the country's specific characteristics is now all
the more important since the -8.2 % downturn of 2020. Greece was among the first four countries to submit its national
recovery and resilience plan (NRRP) in April 2021. The plan envisages investments and reforms totalling €30.5 billion,
to be implemented up to 2026, with €17.8 billion to be financed from non-repayable financial support (grants) and
€12.7 billion, the maximum possible allocation, from loans. The plan corresponds to 4.2 % of the €723.8 billion
Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) and represents 16.7 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019
(the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). The grants alone represent 9.7 % of the country's GDP, and overall this
is the sixth biggest national plan. Greece is the biggest per capita grant beneficiary, receiving €1 666 in grants per
person. The Greek plan was approved by the Council on 13 July 2021, which allowed the disbursement of the pre-
financing payment of €4 billion to Greece on 9 August 2021. Further disbursements will be made up until 2026, upon
fulfilment of the agreed milestones and targets. Grants are scheduled in nine equal instalments, and loans in six equal
instalments. A first payment request was submitted by Greece on 29 December 2021 for the fulfilment of 15
milestones. On 7 January 2022, implementation had begun of 103 measures, corresponding to €6.1 billion. The
European Parliament, which supported an EU recovery instrument from the start of the pandemic, is involved through
a regular, structured dialogue with the Commission and the Council, and is competent to scrutinise its implementation.
This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. First edition. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated

Résumé The negative impact of the Covid-19 crisis on women's social and economic situation triggered a debate on the urgent
need for a gender-sensitive policy response to the pandemic. In this context, the establishment of the Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF) – the EU's biggest financial instrument supporting recovery in the Member States – is an
opportunity to channel extraordinary resources toward measures that take into account the principles of gender
equality. It is also a chance to put into practice the EU's long-standing commitments to mainstream gender across
different policies and apply gender budgeting principles to EU spending. Offering an overview of how gender equality
has been built into the RRF Regulation, this briefing explains what was expected from the Member States when they
were preparing their national recovery and resilience plans (NRRPs) as regards gender equality. It also provides
practical examples of reforms and investments where gender equality has been taken into account, from the 22
NRRPs approved by the end of 2021 (Belgium, Czechia, Denmark, Germany, Estonia, Ireland, Greece, Spain, France,
Croatia, Italy, Cyprus, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Austria, Portugal, Romania, Slovenia, Slovakia and
Finland). In keeping with the RRF Regulation, all the NRRPs analysed declare gender equality to be a horizontal
objective, to be given consideration in all measures. However, not all Member States have included dedicated reforms
or investments addressing gender-related challenges explicitly or indicating women as the main beneficiaries. Our
analysis shows that the most numerous and innovative measures are present in the plans of Belgium, Spain, Italy and
Austria. This is an update of a Briefing published in October 2021.

European Parliament contributes to the preparation of proposals for the forthcoming year's budget for the European
Union through the adoption of its 'guidelines'. The draft guidelines, as adopted by the Committee on Budgets on 16
March 2022, outline Parliament's goals for the Union's 2023 budget, with the overarching priority of recovering from the
coronavirus crisis and facing geopolitical challenges. Parliament is expected to adopt its guidelines during the April
plenary session, ahead of the Commission's adoption of its proposal of the draft 2023 budget, scheduled for early
June.

Résumé The economic performance of Belarus has been unimpressive ever since the fall of the Soviet Union, due mainly to the
country’s lack of serious structural reforms. This study examines the consequences of this benign neglect should a
democratic transition occur and attempts to understand the assistance that may be required to help Belarus
successfully transform. Unlike the transformations which began in Central Europe during 1989, though, Belarus’
potential transition is complicated by immense Russian pressure. Hence, the provision of much needed assistance will
be highly dependent upon Russia’s stance towards a democratic transfer of power. This study examines its possible
responses to understand how the EU can best be involved in the long-delayed Belarusian transformation and also how
much assistance may be required.

Mot-clé Danemark | relance économique | reprise économique | transition économique
Résumé In absolute figures, the Danish National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is the sixth smallest national plan (or
third smallest as a share of gross domestic product, GDP) under the unprecedented EU response to the crisis
triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. To date, Denmark has decided not to request any loan, and its Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF) allocation therefore consists solely of a non-repayable grant (see figure below). Denmark is
set to receive the maximum allocation of €1 551.4 million from the RRF, which corresponds to 0.2 % of the entire RRF
and to 0.5 % of Denmark’s 2019 GDP. The country’s NRRP amounts to €1 615 million, which means that Denmark will
add €63.6 million in national funding towards the total resources of the plan. According to Article 18 of the RRF
Regulation, measures under the NRRPs are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council’s approval of the plan,
Denmark received €201 million in pre-financing in September 2021. Subsequent payments, to be distributed over six
instalments, will depend on achieving milestones and targets identified in relation to RRF implementation. The Danish
plan is centred around reforms and investments early in the period, and the last instalment is planned for June 2026.
The European Parliament, which was a major advocate for the creation of a common EU recovery instrument,
participates in interinstitutional fora for cooperation and discussion on its implementation and scrutinises the work of

Résumé To benefit from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), the unprecedented EU response to the crisis triggered by
the coronavirus pandemic, Czechia has decided to use the grant component of its national allocation, without
requesting loans. The targeted resources total €7 036 million and represent 1 % of the entire RRF. They amount to 3.1
% of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). To receive
this support, Czechia has prepared a National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP), a broad programme of reforms
and investments that seeks to underpin the recovery of the Czech economy, while advancing the green and digital
transition and addressing a number of existing structural weaknesses. In addition to the EU support, Czechia has
included in its plan a subset of reforms and investments equal to €449 million, which, while integrated into the structure
of the plan, are not included in the RRF financing and will be financed from national resources. Measures under the
plan are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council’s approval, Czechia has received €915 million in pre-
financing, equivalent to 13 % of its total financial allocation. The next payments, divided into nine six-monthly
instalments, will depend on progress in implementing the plan. The European Parliament, which was a strong
advocate for a common EU recovery instrument, participates in interinstitutional cooperation and discussions on its
implementation and scrutinises the work of the European Commission.

Mot-clé Malte | relance économique | reprise économique | transition économique
Résumé Malta's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) has a total value of €344.9 million. However, under the EU's
Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), which is at the core of the EU's innovative Next Generation EU instrument,
Malta is expected to receive around €316.4 million, slightly below the value of the plan, and entirely in grants. Malta
has not requested any loans so far. Under the RRF Regulation, the option to request loan support of up to 6.8 % of
2019 gross national income is available until 31 August 2023. Whereas in nominal terms, Malta has the second
smallest allocation after Luxembourg, in terms of RRF grants per capita, it ranks higher: the value of Malta's grants
under the RRF equals approximately 2.3 % of its 2019 gross domestic product (GDP), less than the average for the
EU overall (in comparison, the RRF equals 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). In December 2021, Malta received €41.1
million in pre-financing. The Maltese plan takes into consideration the Council's 2019 and 2020 country-specific
recommendations, and aligns with both national economic and investment plans and funding under EU cohesion policy
programmes for the 2021-2027 period. The overall objective is to contribute to a sustainable, equitable, green and
digital recovery. In particular, the plan aims to digitalise small and medium-sized enterprises and the public
administration, promote sustainable public transport and electric vehicles, and step-up the fight against money
laundering. It embraces the green and digital transitions – major common European challenges – and envisages 53.8
% of the total allocation for climate objectives, while 25.5 % will contribute to the digital target. The share of the
allocation dedicated to the green transition makes Malta's NRRP one of the greenest. The European Parliament
participates in interinstitutional forums for cooperation and discussion on the implementation of the RRF, and
scrutinises the work of the European Commission.

Résumé In absolute figures, Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan is the largest national plan under the unprecedented EU
response to the crisis triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. Italy has decided to use its entire national allocation
under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), including its loan component. Totalling €191.5 billion, these
resources represent 26.5 % of the entire RRF, equal to 10.7 % of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019
(the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). In addition, Italy has earmarked national resources worth €30.6 billion to
further strengthen a vast programme of reforms and investments that aims to promote the recovery of the Italian
economy, while addressing a number of structural weaknesses as well as pursuing major objectives such as the green
transition and the digital transformation. Measures under the plan are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council’s
approval of the plan, Italy received €24.9 billion pre-financing in August 2021. Further payments, in 10 instalments
each for grants and loans, will depend on progress in implementing the plan. In December 2021, Italy submitted a first

Résumé Lithuania's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) sets out the package of reforms and investment measures
designed by the country in the context of the EU response to the crisis triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. In
absolute figures, Lithuania has decided to use its full grant allocation of €2 224 million under the Recovery and

RRF, equal to 4.6 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in
2019). In addition, Lithuania is naturally pursuing national reforms and investments that aim to further promote the
dynamism of its economy, while addressing a number of structural weaknesses. It is also pursuing major objectives
such as convergence towards higher standards of living, the green transition and the digital transformation. Measures
under the NRRP are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council's approval of the plan, Lithuania received €289

Mot-clé Finlande | relance économique | reprise économique | transition économique
Résumé Finland's €2 085 million National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) makes use of the grants component of the
country's national allocation under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), with no contribution from the loan
component. The share of the NRRP equals 0.9 % of Finland's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 and represents a
total of 0.3 % of the entire RRF. In this respect, Finland's plan is relatively big compared to Member States of
comparable population size and economy, such as Denmark (€1 500 million in grants). Finland has allocated 50.4 % of
its national plan to the green transition, in the service of its ambition to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035, while digital
expenditure accounts for 27.1 % of the overall resources in the plan. Thus, Finland exceeds the minimum allocations
required by the RRF Regulation, which are 37 % for the green transition and 20 % for digital transformation. The
Sustainable Growth Programme for Finland presents the NRRP and is financed by the Next Generation EU (NGEU)
recovery instrument. Finland received its first payment of about €271 million in pre-financing, representing 13 % of its
plan, on 21 January 2022; the next payments, in six instalments, will depend on progress in implementing the plan.
The total amount of grants under the RRF is subject to revision in June 2022, which might affect the final amount
allocated to Finland. In addition to the RRF, Finland's plan draws on other EU funding instruments, such as the
Connecting Europe Facility, to finance a cross-border electricity transmission project in partnership with Sweden in
support of the green transition RRF pillar; the Digital Europe and Horizon Europe programmes, to support initiatives
under the digitalisation pillar; and the European Social Fund and European Regional Development Fund for the

Résumé To address the consequences of the coronavirus pandemic, the EU has put in place an unprecedented temporary
recovery instrument, Next Generation EU (NGEU). Its main spending tool is the Recovery and Resilience Facility,
worth €723.8 billion (in current prices). While EU countries differ both in terms of their pre-coronavirus situations and in
terms of Covid-19-related impacts, they can all seize the opportunity to kick-start their economies with this financial
injection. To access funding under the facility, EU countries have had to preparef their recovery and resilience plans in
line with a number of requirements, such as earmarking a certain minimum share for investment in the green and
digital transitions. The plans have to be endorsed by the European Commission and approved by the Council. By
January 2022, 70 % of the plans had been approved. While governments are receiving their first allocations of funding
and a full analysis is still out of reach, it has been possible to get an initial glimpse of the plans' contents. This briefing
aims to give a flavour of the elements that EU countries want to take up to revive their transport and mobility systems.
As all the projects financed have to be implemented by 2026, careful consideration has been needed to determine
what is feasible and how it can fit in with long-term national greening efforts. Most governments want to invest in
modern trains, clean vehicles and recharging infrastructure as well as improving public transport. While digitalisation is
already significantly present across all transport modes, strategies for reducing car use and promoting active mobility
are taking hold only gradually. While the planned reforms and investments combine many elements and vary
considerably, their collective completion could bring a step change towards a clean and modern European transport.

Résumé The Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) of the European Union (EU) is the core component of Next Generation
EU, a temporary recovery instrument which allows the Commission to raise funds to help the economic and social
recovery after the coronavirus pandemic. By promoting the sustainable and inclusive recovery that ensures the green
and digital transitions make progress, the RRF is consistent with the Commission's priorities. Belgium has decided to
use its entire grant allocation under the RRF and, with a total amount of €5 924 million. Belgium's National Recovery
and Resilience Plan (NRRP) ranks 14th among the NRRPs in absolute budget value. Belgium's NRRP is entirely
funded through non-repayable grants, which represent 0.8 % of the entire RRF and 1.24 % of Belgium's gross
domestic product (GDP) in 2019. The measures envisaged by the Belgian NRRP should be completed by 2026.
Following the Council's approval of the plan, Belgium received €770 million (13 %) of pre-financing in August 2021.
The next 10 instalments will depend on 210 intermediate milestones and targets in the implementation of the plan. The

Résumé In absolute figures, Cyprus's National Recovery and Resilience Plan amounts to €1.2 billion. Cyprus decided to use its
allocation under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) predominantly in grants (€1.005 billion), with €200.3
million in loans. These resources represent around 0.2 % of the entire RRF, but are equal to 5.2 % of the country's
gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). They will underpin a vast
programme of reforms and investments that aims to promote the recovery of the Cypriot economy (Cyprus's GDP
dropped by 5.2 % in 2020), while addressing a number of structural weaknesses as well as pursuing major objectives
such as the green transition and the digital transformation. Measures under Cyprus's plan are to be completed in 2026.
Following the Council's approval of the plan, Cyprus received a €157 million pre-financing, disbursed in September
2021. The next payments, in ten instalments for grants and four instalments for loans, will depend on progress in
implementing the plan. The European Parliament, which was a major advocate for the creation of a common EU
recovery instrument, participates in interinstitutional fora for cooperation and discussion on its implementation and
scrutinises the work of the European Commission. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. First
edition. The 'NGEU delivery' briefings are updated at key stages throughout the lifecycle of the plans.

Résumé Estonia's Recovery and Resilience Plan – one of the last such plans submitted to the European Commission – sets out
the reforms and public investment projects that Estonia intends to implement with the support of the Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF). The RRF is one of the main components of Next Generation EU, an EU instrument to
counter the impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Estonia's plan is one of the smallest in the EU in terms of the total
amount allocated. However, when taking into account its number of inhabitants, the country is a medium-sized
beneficiary. Initially, Estonia requested €982.5 million in grants (so far, it has not requested RRF loans); the Council
agreed to make €969.3 million available to Estonia, of which the allocation for 2021 and 2022 is €759.5 million and is
already final. However, the remaining amount of money that is available might still change until June 2022, depending
on the updated data on Estonia's gross domestic product (GDP) compared to other EU countries. Estonia's plan
represents 0.1 % of the entire RRF, equal to 3.5 % of the country's GDP in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP
in 2019). The reforms and investments included in Estonia's plan should be completed by 2026. Its key focus is on the
green and digital transitions, the resilience and accessibility of the healthcare system, and social inclusion. The plan
could increase Estonia's GDP by between 0.8 % and 1.3 % and help to create up to 4 000 additional jobs by 2026. The
Council approved Estonia's plan on 25 October 2021. The European Commission disbursed €126 million in pre-
financing on 17 December 2021. The next payments, in seven instalments, will depend on progress in implementing
the investments and reforms. The European Parliament, which was a great supporter of the creation of a common EU
recovery instrument, participates in interinstitutional cooperation and discussions on its implementation, and scrutinises
the work of the European Commission. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU Member States. First edition.

Résumé Latvia's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) sets the package of reforms and investment measures
designed by the country in the context of the European Union (EU) response to the crisis triggered by the coronavirus
pandemic. In absolute figures, Latvia has decided to use €1 826 millions of grant allocation under the Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF), while declining to avail of the loan component. These resources represent 0.3 % of the entire
RRF, equal to 6 % of the country's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF being 5.2 % of EU 27 GDP in
2019). Through these resources, Latvia is naturally pursuing national reforms and investments that aim to further
promote a dynamic Latvian economy, while addressing a number of structural weaknesses. Latvia is also striving to
attain major objectives such as convergence towards higher levels of standard of living, the green transition and digital
transformation. Measures under the current plan are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council's approval of the
plan, Latvia received €237 million in pre-financing in September 2021. The next payments, in a total of six instalments,
will depend on progress in implementation. The European Parliament, which was a major advocate for the creation of
a common EU recovery instrument, participates in interinstitutional fora for cooperation and discussion on its
implementation and scrutinises the work of the European Commission. This briefing is one in a series covering all EU

Résumé Spain’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is one of the biggest financed by the Next Generation EU
(NGEU) recovery instrument. It contains the largest amount, in terms of grants, under the unprecedented EU response
to the crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic. For the time being, Spain has decided to use its national allocation
for grants under the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF). The proposed and approved amount (€69.5 billion)
represents 9.6 % of the entire RRF, equal to 5.6 % of the country’s gross domestic product (GDP) in 2019 (the RRF
being 5.2 % of EU-27 GDP in 2019). In addition, Spain’s general state budgets plan investment of €27 billion, aligned
with the NRRP. The RRF funding will be supplemented by €12.4 billion from the REACT-EU funds, mainly for
investment in health and education, and by the structural funds set out in the 2021-2027 Multiannual Financial
Framework. Measures under the plan are to be completed by 2026. Following the Council’s approval of the plan on 17
August 2021, the European Commission disbursed €9 billion to Spain in pre-financing, equivalent to 13 % of the
country’s financial allocation under the RRF. The next payments, in eight instalments, will depend on progress in
implementing the plan. The European Parliament, which was a major advocate for the creation of a common EU
recovery instrument and was co-legislator for the adoption of the RRF, participates in the interinstitutional fora for
cooperation and discussion on its implementation and in scrutinising the work of the European Commission.

Résumé France will hold the Presidency of the Council of the EU in the first half of 2022. It will initiate the work of the Trio
Presidency composed of France, Czechia and Sweden. Executive power is exercised by the President of the Republic,
who is elected by direct, popular vote, and the Government. The Prime Minister, appointed by the President, together
with the Ministers, is answerable to the National Assembly, the lower house of Parliament, and they can be removed
by a vote of censure. Parliament consists of the National Assembly and the Senate. The National Assembly is the
principal parliamentary body, composed of 577 members, who are elected directly for five-year terms. The Presidential
election will coincide with the French Presidency, in April 2022. France is a founding Member State of the European
Union, and has already held the rotating Presidency of the Council 13 times. The French President, Emmanuel
Macron, will present the political priorities of the Presidency to the European Parliament during the January plenary
session in Strasbourg. While the last French Presidency, in 2008, was characterised by the global financial crisis, the
forthcoming one is expected to be dominated by the ongoing Covid pandemic, the cost of energy crisis and the
aftermath of Brexit. The French Presidency will very likely give special impetus to the conclusion of the Conference on
the Future of Europe, which should take place in the first half of 2022. The plan is for the Trio Presidency, in its role as
member/observer in the Executive Board of the Conference, to draw on the outcomes of the various activities and
citizens’ recommendations, outline how they define the future of the Union, and start the implementation process.

Résumé Ireland's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) is relatively small compared to the plans of most Member
States. In absolute terms and per capita, Ireland has the second smallest allocation (after Luxembourg) under the
Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF) €989 million entirely in grants. So far, it has not requested any loans (the
maximum available loan amount is estimated at €18.7 billion). Most of the funds (€914.4 million) are expected to be
legally committed by December 2022. A further set of grants (the remaining amount) will be allocated in 2023,
depending on economic developments. Ireland has not requested pre-financing; its grants are planned to be disbursed
in five instalments. Relative to the size of the Irish economy, its RRF grants are not large: these are equivalent to
around 0.3 % of the country's 2019 GDP, while the total RRF amounts to 5.2 % of 2019 EU-27 GDP. Given also that
spending will be spread over the years up to 2026, the RRF is not expected to have a significant direct impact on
Ireland's key macroeconomic indicators. The European Commission estimates that it could increase Ireland's GDP by
0.3-0.5 % by 2026. А more significant indirect impact is expected from the overall boost to the EU economy and the
associated cross-border spillover effects. The plan's overall objective is to contribute to a sustainable, equitable, green
and digital recovery. It complements the government's broader domestic recovery efforts under the economic recovery
plan, underpinned by the national development plan (NDP) of €165 billion, for 2021-2030. Although the RRF allocation
amounts to less than 1 % of the total NDP investment, it will contribute to key reforms and investments. With 41.9 % of
funding allocated for climate and 31.5 % for digital measures, the NRRP's16 investment and 9 reform projects will also
focus on strategic EU priorities. The European Parliament participates in interinstitutional fora for cooperation and
discussion on the implementation of the RRF, and scrutinises the work of the European Commission.

Résumé Germany is set to receive €25.6 billion in non-repayable support from the Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF), the
unprecedented EU response to the crisis triggered by the coronavirus pandemic. This amount corresponds to 3.7 % of
the entire RRF and to 0.7 % of Germany's 2019 gross domestic product (GDP). The National Recovery and Resilience
Plan (NRRP) for Germany amounts to €27.9 billion (0.81 % of 2019 GDP) and does not include requests for loans.
Excluding value-added tax, this corresponds to a net amount of at least €26.5 billion, slightly above the maximum
financial contribution of €25.6 billion (0.74 % of 2019 GDP) that Germany can expect. For most of the measures,
additional funding will also come from national sources. There is a strong focus on the green transition. Measures
relating to climate protection –including key actions on mobility and housing – reach at least 42 % of the allocation. The
German RRP shows an even stronger digital ambition, reaching at least 52 % of the allocation and ranging from
industry, to education, social policy and healthcare, to public administration. Following Council approval of the plan, the
European Commission, on 26 August 2021, disbursed €2.25 billion to Germany in pre-financing, equivalent to 9 % of
the country's financial allocation under the RRF. (Germany did not ask for a higher share of pre-financing because the
€2.25 billion was already reflected in budgetary acts adopted earlier). The remaining 91 % will be paid in five
instalments once Germany has satisfactorily fulfilled the milestones and targets identified in relation to RRF
implementation. An amount of €16.3 billion will be available to be legally committed by 31 December 2022. The
European Parliament strongly advocated the establishment of a common EU recovery instrument. Parliament
participates in interinstitutional cooperation and discussions on its implementation and scrutinises the European
Commission's work.

Résumé Uncertainty is growing over the recovery of the European economy from the recession generated by the Covid-19
pandemic. The European Commission has painted an optimistic growth scenario in its most recent forecast, with the
economy expected to expand by 5 per cent and 4.3 per cent in 2021 and 2022 respectively. However, an increasing
number of analysts see the potential for growth dampened by new restrictions in the run-up to Christmas this year
given a fourth/fifth wave of the pandemic currently gripping Europe, compounded by the discovery of a new variant of
the coronavirus. Higher inflation, partly resulting from high energy prices and disrupted supply chains, is also seen as a
threat to the economy of the euro area and the wider EU, as are high public debt levels in many countries. This note
gathers links to recent publications and commentaries from many international think tanks on the state of the European
economy and on debates on how to reform it.
