Intervenção do Ministro das Finanças e Presidente do Eurogrupo no Ministério das Finanças alemão em Berlim

«If I had stood here two years ago and told you that Portugal would win the European football championship and the Eurovision song contest, you would surely have had understandable doubts. If I had told you that Portugal, under a centre-left government, would in 2 years reduce the deficit from 4.5% to 1.2% in 2017, generate primary surpluses close to 3%, reduce the debt/GDP, lower unemployment by more than 30%, grow above the euro area average and recover investment grade status by key rating agencies, you probably wouldn’t have believed it.»
