Referring to the stock market, he stated: "The government must pay attention to the stock market. We are working on this in the Economic Commission of the Parliament, we must deepen this market, and prioritize supply so that investment moves towards production. Hence, we can also help to improve the production in the field of funds provision so that we can create sustainable employment and control inflation." 212/ 207
