So it is equally crucial to reaffirm the political mandate. It is up to politicians to state their convictions, and present them to voters in a clear and consequential fashion. If we want to achieve a strong, well-functioning and sustainable Europe that works for all of us, then we must be willing to do what it takes.
It requires us to better harmonize our economic policies, and to jointly invest in sustainable growth. Firmly based on member states assuming responsibility for putting their own house in order. With the realization that all member states must do their bit. And with the prospect of creating a better future for us all. Thank you ***  3/3  BIS central bankers' speeches
