Good evening, and welcome to the press conference after today's Eurogroup meeting. It's my pleasure to introduce Minister Pierold Kakis, President of the Eurogroup; Commissioner for Productivity, Economy, Simplification, and Implementation, Waldo Sombroskis; and Pierre Garmenja, the Managing Director of the ESM. As usual, we will hear their statements first, and then we can take a few questions. Minister, the floor is yours.

Intervenant 1
Thank you so much. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Today's meeting started with a discussion on macroeconomic developments. This discussion took place during a time of significant turbulence. The situation in the Middle East is deeply concerning.
Besides the economic turmoil, we are witnessing a situation with broad geopolitical repercussions. In this time of crisis, the EU stands in solidarity with its friends in the region and with the affected people. 2025 was a positive year for the European economy, with higher-than-expected growth supported by stabilizing inflation, stronger domestic demand, robust labor markets, and favorable financing conditions. Today, however, we find ourselves in a quite different environment. We're closely monitoring market reactions to the developments in the Middle East.
This is what dominates the international headlines. The European economy has the capacity and resilience to absorb temporary shocks, but at the same time, we must be prepared for a more prolonged period of instability, with potential disruptions in shipping, increases in energy prices, and implications for inflation. Energy is at the center of our attention. Instability in the Middle East and the ongoing war in Ukraine remind us of how vulnerable energy markets are and how exposed our economies might remain to external shocks. We are seeing upward pressure on energy prices, and we discussed the types of measures that member states are considering, along with the need to remain coordinated in action while monitoring the situation on the ground.
