National debt is not an abstract number ! PG @ESM_Press @ojblanchard1 #DebtToGDP #OlivierBlanchard #FiscalPolicy #FR

With inflation expected to be at 3% above the #ECB target , and Eurozone growth forecast at 0.9% instead of 1.2% because of Middle East conflict , the economy remains resilient and in positive territory . No reason to speak of stagflation at this juncture. PG @ESM_Press #euro #inflation #Eurozone #economicgrowth #EU #ME
