EU's Michel: EU must mobilise a lot of money for recovery while protecting rule of law

Squaring the circle on the rule of law mechanism for the European Union's funds is the biggest challenge to implementing the coronavirus recovery deal, European Council President Charles Michel said on Friday.

"The EU must mobilise a lot of money for recovery while protecting the rule of law at the same time," Michel added, as reported by Reuters.
