"Madam President, the scoreboard for the surveillance of macro-economic imbalances is needed to coordinate economic and social policies and promote convergence between Member States. This instrument must include a complete analysis of these imbalances, including current-account deficits and surpluses. We must not forget that maintaining significant and sustained current-account surpluses creates barriers for the adjustment policies which economies in deficit need to adopt.
At the same time, the issue of the competitiveness gap between Member States cannot be resolved by cutting salaries and reducing social protection. Such measures only weaken society and promote poverty and economic stagnation.
The European Union needs huge long-term investment in infrastructure and technology, especially green technology, in order to encourage job creation and foster economic growth."@en1
