As I mentioned before, the Commission and the European Council acted rapidly to facilitate national interventions in support of households and firms and new financial instruments were created to support countries in difficulty. The European Central Bank acted decisively, promptly and very effectively.
The reciprocal fears and prejudices that resurfaced during the two crises of the last decade, and which have also at times weighed on the important decisions to be made in this delicate phase, must be definitively overcome and rejected with the responsible contribution of each one of us. European countries are called on to face the same challenges.
