What is Greece going to do with the EU's Covid-19 recovery funds?

Greece has submitted its plans, outlining how it will use the money from the EU Recovery and Resilience Fund (RRF).

The funds that will be pumped into Greece over the coming years should help boost the economy in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic. But the Greek government also sees this money as vital to transforming the economy and the country's infrastructure.

Investment in the green and digital transition are at the top of Greece's list, with these two areas set to receive more than 50 pct of the EU grants available to Athens.

Hosts Nick Malkoutzis and Phoebe Fronista spoke to MacroPolis feature editor Georgia Nakou and WWF economist Olivier Vardakoulias to discuss how much of an impact this money can make and what kind of obstacles Greece could face.
