Draghi's call for joint EU bonds hits wall of German opposition
Business Standard|September 11, 2024
Joint debt just isn't on Germany's agenda irrespective of Mario Draghi's warning that it's the only way to make the European Union more competitive with China and the US.
Draghi's call for joint EU bonds hits wall of German opposition

The former Italian premier had barely finished presenting his long-awaited report on Monday about how to fix Europe's ailing economy-with its centrepiece of common bond issuance-when Finance Minister Christian Lindner retorted that such an approach won't solve the region's structural problems. "I am very sceptical about Draghi's approach to debt," the German politician told N-TV in one of a series of swift reactions. "That can be summarised briefly: Germany should pay for others. That can't be a master plan." That reaction from Berlin highlights the challenges of turning a 400-page recipe to restore competitiveness and help the bloc compete on global markets into reality.

The resistance to Draghi's call for the region to invest as much as ₹800 billion ($884 billion) extra a year and commit to regularly issue common bonds prolongs a history of stalemate between rival ambitions.
