|The European Union project is at stake if members fail to agree on a strong common economic response to the coronavirus crisis, EU Economic Commissioner Paolo Gentiloni said on Friday.
On the same note, ECB President Lagarde reiterated that a common European fiscal response is desirable. "It needs to be swift, sizeable and symmetrical," Lagarde added while speaking on economic policies for the aftermath of the COVID-19.
