Good to share my views at this year’s Government Borrowers Forum, taking place in Riga.

Europe must once again demonstrate its capacity to turn moments of disruption into opportunities to build lasting strength.

📌 Great to share how we are doing exactly through the Savings and Investments Union, the #DigitalEuro, and more.

Competitiveness and fiscal sustainability go hand in hand.

Both are essential to secure Europe's prosperity, resilience, and sovereignty.

Today’s #EuropeanSemester Spring Package sets a clear path forward.

The euro has what it takes to go truly global.

Now is the moment for it to claim a role that reflects its political, economic, and financial weight in the world.

Delighted to share my thoughts at today’s @ecfin conference on the international monetary system and the euro’s role. 🇪🇺

🇪🇺’s competitiveness challenges are not new. What has changed is the world around us, and are determined to see this urgent work through.

Participating in the reVize Česka conference with 🇨🇿 businesses, my two messages were clear:
- We hear you. We are focused on delivering real change to help your day to day operations.
- We need you. Economic strength is also built from the bottom up.

I welcome 🇺🇦 @verkhovna_rada’s decision to ratify the Loan Agreement and Memorandum of Understanding underpinning the Ukraine Support Loan’s macro-financial assistance.

✔️ This step demonstrates its support for structural reforms aimed at building a more resilient economy also in the context of Ukraine’s path towards EU accession.

💪 Work continues, now preparing the first disbursement.

As the conflict in the Middle East drags on, oil and gas prices could stay high for longer than assumed in the baseline projections. The 2026 🌸Spring #ECForecast considers a downside scenario, too.

Commissioner @VDombrovskis has presented the 2026 🌸Spring #ECForecast highlighting the ways to tackle the energy crisis triggered by the Middle East conflict.

👀Read our forecast: https://t.co/p6ynVigLts

[EU Economy & Finance @ecfin]

Inflation has been fuelled by surging energy prices since March. The energy shock set off by the Middle East conflict is forecast to have a higher impact throughout 2026, slightly easing in 2027.

👀See what drives inflation projections.
