MILAN, Feb 2 (Reuters) - European governments are working
hard on the Recovery Plan and any difficulties will be seen at
the end, the president of the European Commission said on
Tuesday, when asked whether she was worried about possible
delays due to Italy's political crisis.
"I expect that member states ratify the Recovery Plan in
time because it is in their interest to do so so that the
Commission can go to the markets to collect the money," Ursula
von der Leyen told daily la Repubblica in an interview.
Von der Leyen added that Astrazeneca would provide
40 million doses of anti-COVID vaccines in Europe in the coming
two months and "we expect it will make up for cuts seen in first
quarter".
She also confirmed the target to vaccinate 70% of Europe's
adult population by the summer, adding that 300 million doses of
Pfizer, Moderna and Astrazeneca vaccines were
coming in the second quarter and, if approved, further 80
million vials from Johnson&Johnson and Curevac.
