The European Union could charge 70,000 companies for access to the EU market to help pay for its coronavirus recovery program, Budget Commissioner Johannes Hahn was quoted as saying in a Financial Times interview.
Hahn said there’s no alternative to giving the European Commission new sources of revenue to service the debt it would take on under the 750 billion-euro ($833 billion) plan, according to the FT. He called on EU member countries to back the company tax.
