The European Commission yesterday resulted facts change discourse has matured in recent months. The need to ease the pressure on the deficit to promote the end of the recession has resulted in tax relief for seven countries, which will have more time to redress imbalances. The truce is granted wider than expected, both in the number of states as in the time allotted. Besides of the two-year extension to Spain and France, Poland and Slovenia will also benefit from this period, while Portugal, Belgium and the Netherlands have one year more.
In an implicit recognition that budgetary restraint has been excessive, the vice president of the European Commission responsible for Economic Affairs, Olli Rehn, described the changes as "fruit of experience and a better understanding of the bottlenecks in the growth of various countries. " But no one should take that extension as a reward: a change, the EU executive requires strong reforms. "Now Member States should intensify their efforts in structural reforms," said the president of the Commission, José Manuel Barroso, who spoke of "social emergency".
To quell the chorus of voices advocating national remedies, Barroso launched "a plea" to build "the European Consensus". The expression seems like a counterpoint to the called Washington consensus, identified with excessive austerity.

Speaking of reforms, France leads EU concerns. In exchange for granting two years of grace, Brussels recommends that the second economy in the euro to undertake six reforms "brave" (as Rehn said) to "unlock its growth potential", reduce government spending, modernize their markets and improve competitiveness . Suggested Duties to socialist France are: pension reform this year, less labor costs, more open labor market, liberalization of professions and services (energy, railways, taxis, doctors, notaries, lawyers, pharmacies ...), tax simplification and improving the business climate. Furthermore, Rehn asks Paris to reduce the deficit to 3.6% in 2014-when one's forecast is 4.2% Brussels - and urges him to walk faster.
France has received suggestions neoliberals of the Commission with an unusual response, sounding much higher than normal, which seems to anticipate moments of high tension at the top end of June you should confirm the shift to growth. "The Commission can not dictate to France what we have to do," said the chairman, François Hollande. "It should just say that France has to balance its books. With respect to structural reforms, especially pensions, only we can check what is the right path. " Hollande said that Paris will reform pensions by concluding: "If we do, not because you ask Brussels but because we know that we need to save our distribution system."
Italy is another good example of that increased laxity in Brussels in exchange for reforms. Rehn considered credible measures provided for the level and deficit is below 3% and, therefore, brings to this country sanctioning excessive deficit procedure. It recommends, yes, changes draft: stronger laws against corruption, clean the financial sector and encourage lending to companies.
Belgium reflects well the interest of the Commission to abandon the uncompromising reputation. The country will, as Holland, one year longer than expected to reduce the deficit and Rehn resignation, for now, to punish. In Slovenia, which is emerging as the next candidate to receive a European bailout, Brussels gives two more years.
