INTERVIEW. Carl Devos on the pension deal: "This is not the major reform our country needs.”

Pensions Minister Karine Lalieux (PS) is congratulating herself now that Vivaldi has finally reached a pension agreement. Is her party also the big winner? Can Prime Minister De Croo (Open Vld) convince the voter with this? And is this agreement sufficient to cover the cost of ageing? Political science professor Carl Devos (UGent) analyses. “If there is no tax agreement, the voter will soon forget this lukewarm pension reform.”
