"Adoption of the so-called ‘two-pack’ is an important step towards strengthening the economic governance framework within the euro area. The ‘six-pack’, complemented by the ‘two-pack’, is the badly needed ‘medicine’ to achieve further economic growth, financial stability and stronger budgetary discipline. Unfortunately, now we are learning the hard way about the dramatic effects of Member States’ excessive debt. The ‘two-pack’ is needed in order to put in place the legal framework for the work the European Commission is already performing as it is closely linked with the ‘Fiscal Compact Treaty’. Our future growth is dependent on sustainable public finances and budgetary discipline rather than on creating new debt and deficit. Austerity measures should be seen as a stable foundation for future growth in Europe as they are not mutually exclusive concepts. Take, for example, the case of Latvia – the country which, during the crisis, had the greatest budgetary consolidation (17% of its GDP) in the EU and now is the fastest growing economy in the EU27. In the long-term, stability and growth in the euro area are the most crucial factors and stimulus for other EU countries to join in the upcoming years."@en1
