The Minister of Finance Makis Keravnos has welcomed the decision of the six Finance Ministers participating in the E6 initiative to strengthen their efforts towards enhancing the European Union’s competitiveness, resilience, and strategic autonomy through the mobilisation of private capital, the advancement of the Savings and Investments Union, and the reduction of fragmentation within the European Union.
He issued a relevant written statement in his capacity as Minister of Finance of Cyprus and the current President of the Economic and Financial Affairs Council (ECOFIN),
According to Keravnos, the strategic autonomy of the European Union is a key objective of the Cypriot Presidency, which has consistently promoted this goal through intensive efforts over the past five months.
“The E6 initiative constitutes a useful additional contribution to the broader European efforts and discussions aimed at advancing the Savings and Investments Union, strengthening competitiveness, and enhancing the strategic autonomy of the European Union, within the framework of common European processes and with the objective of creating added value for the European Union as a whole, as also noted in the E6 statement,” the Minister concludes.
