2014. February 18. 14:55
Dr. Vince Cable opened his speech by noting that during the crisis, when there is an enormous pressure on governments to subsidize national industries, people with real integrity and strength to act and ability to establish clear rules are needed at the European level. According to Cable, Mr. Joaquín Almunia performed well in this respect by establishing a clear framework on state aids and their enforcement.
