Completion of a highway in 2020 will lead to a budget surplus
08 May, 17:32The completion of the first highway in the country in 2020 will have a positive impact on national public accounts, leading to ''a budget surplus'', with the reduction of the high public debt, now at 70.8% and expected at 64.5% in 2020. Among the risks to growth foreseen by the EC are ''pressures on public spending that could threaten fiscal consolidation ahead of parliamentary elections to be held in 2020''. (ANSA).
