Prime Minister Jüri Ratas and his Portuguese colleague António Costa mainly discussed the current situation of the Estonian Presidency of the Council of the European Union and matters where reaching an agreement between 28 Member States is complicated.
“The European Union must simultaneously deal with long-term strategic issues, such as technological development, energy security, climate change, or old and new threats around Europe, and offer faster, more tangible changes that improve the everyday lives of people.
We ensure the country’s independence and sovereignty; we stand for the constitutional order and for improving the people’s standard of living.
The European social organisation is based on a wealthy and large middle class. Its formation is the key political objective of the Centre Party.
Our target is a secure European welfare state. People work ardently and love their country when the country protects them.
